Check Campaigns/Actions screen in Elsa on the day of repair to verify that a VIN qualifies for repair under this action. Elsa is the only valid campaign inquiry & verification source.

 If Elsa shows other open action(s), inform your customer so that the work can also be completed at the same time the vehicle is in the workshop for this campaign.
Problem Description
The right hinge pin of the glove box cover may not be properly secured. If this condition is present in the vehicle, the protective potential of the knee airbag could be impaired in the event of a crash with knee airbag deployment. Possible damage to the airbag due to contact with trim loosening from the glove box lid while the airbag is inflating cannot be fully ruled out. There is no risk to the occupants when the vehicle is operated normally. However, the impaired protective potential of the knee airbag may increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash in which the knee airbag is deployed. If the glove box lid is not seated properly, this may result in rattling noises or the glove box not opening/closing cleanly.
Corrective Action
Inspect and, if necessary, correctly install the right hinge pin.
Precautions
If the glove box lid is not seated properly, this may result in rattling noises or the glove box not opening/closing cleanly.
Code Visibility
On or about August 13, 2021, the campaign code will be applied to affected vehicles.
Owner Notification
Owner notification will take place in August 2021. Owner letter examples are included in this bulletin for your reference.
Additional Information
