2010 Mitsubishi Endeavor recall: airbag

⚠️ What's wrong

Mitsubishi motors north america, inc. (mmna) is recalling certain model year 2010 Endeavor model vehicles manufactured between may 26 and july 28, 2009. The retainer bracket used for the seat-mounted side airbag frames on both the driver and front passenger seats may not have been properly welded.

If the weld is insufficient, the dealer will replace the seatback assembly free of charge. The safety recall began on september 30, 2009. Owners may contact mitsubishi customer relations department at 1-888-648-7820.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
