Defective Airbag ECU in 1995 900s Posted by Ian Glenday [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() |
Airbag control unit for 1995 model year Saab 900s to be replaced
Saab will initiate a product safety campaign on the 1995 model year Saab 900 in order to replace the airbag electronic control unit. On a limited number of cars Saab has found that an electrical short within the airbag electronic control unit may cause the inadvertent deployment of the frontal airbags and seat belt pretensioners.
The problem is predominantly reported from markets that include a tropical climate, such as Thailand and Hong Kong. However, as a precautionary measure Saab has decided to include cars on all markets.
There are no reports of accidents with personal injuries originating from this problem.
The airbag central control unit on these cars will be replaced. This campaign will start during February 2003 in East Asia and will eventually include 55.000 cars globally.
A letter will be sent to vehicle owners requesting them to contact their dealer to have this service performed, which will be carried out at no cost to the owner.
