Pierce Manufacturing "Pierce" is recalling certain 2019 Arrow XT, Dash, Enforcer, Impel, Quantum, and Velocity vehicles. Due to improper manufacturing, the passenger-side knee air bag "KAB" may not properly inflate during a deployment event.
In the event of a crash, if the KAB does not inflate properly, it may not provide the intended protection to the occupant, increasing the risk of injury.
Pierce will notify owners, and dealers will replace the KAB assembly, free of charge. The recall began October 9, 2019. Owners may contact Pierce customer service at 1-888-974-3723.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 'TTY 1-800-424-9153', or go to www.safercar.gov.
