Washington,DC,USA -The Car Connection, by Suzanne Kane -Jul 7, 2013: -- Chrysler is conducting a voluntary safety recall of certain 2013 model year Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans to fix an airbag software error... A notice on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website puts the number of vehicles in the United States potentially affected by the safety recall at 224,254. Also included in the recall campaign are certain 2013 model year Ram Tradesman cargo vans... Affected vehicles were built from May 10, 2012 through June 7, 2013... At issue is an error in the software that may result in the airbags on the opposite side of the vehicle deploying from the collision point. As an example, a left-side impact would deploy the right-side airbag, and vice versa... In the event of a crash, the wrong side airbag deploying could leave a vehicle occupant unprotected at the point of impact and at higher risk of injury...
