What NHTSA recorded

Air bag and seat belt system warning labels are missing from the sun visor. This does not comply with fmvss no. 108, "occupant crash protection."

Possible consequence

The vehicle occupant may not properly understand the operation of the air bag system and the need to use seat belts.

Remedy

Owners will be provided with labels and installation instructions. If they so desire, they can have their dealers install these labels for them.
