Drivers of more than 2 million cars and SUVs may be feeling deja vu after the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced Saturday that a previous recall’s remedy for faulty air bags is still not working as designed.
The current recall affects the 2002-2003 Jeep Liberty, 2002-2004 Grand Cherokee, 2003-2004 Honda Odyssey, 2003 Acura MDX and 2003-2004 Pontiac Vibe, Dodge Viper, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Matrix and Toyota Avalon.
Drivers of affected vehicles should visit their dealer, the statement said.
These vehicles were all subject to recalls between 2012 and 2014 for problems with an electronic component that caused some air bags to deploy inadvertently. Though the manufacturers’ fix has worked in most cases, the NHTSA said in the statement that about 40 air bags have deployed despite the fix.
