Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze, Chevrolet Sonic, and Chevrolet Camaro vehicles. These vehicles have a defect in the driver side frontal air bag where a shorting bar may intermittently contact the air bag terminals. If this contact occurs at the time of a crash requiring the air bag to deploy, the driver's frontal air bag will not deploy, increasing the risk of injury to the driver.
GM will notify owners of affected vehicles, and dealers will replace the steering wheel air bag coil at no charge. Affected Chevrolet owners should contact GM at 1-800-222-1020, and affected Buick owners should contact GM at 1-800-521-7300. The recall began on July 25, 2014.
