- Equipment:other:labels
- Manufactured:
- 06/30/2000 - 08/30/2004
- Affected:
- 100,432
- Defect:

- 01/18/2000 - 03/17/2005
- Affected:

- Defect:
- Mitsubishi motors north america, inc. (mmna) is recalling certain model year 2000-2005 eclipse vehicles manufactured april 5, 1999, to december 17, 2004, 2001-2005 eclipse spyder vehicles manufactured january 19, 2000, to march 18, 2005, 2001-2005 chrysler sebring vehicles manufactured april 17, 2000, to february 21, 2005, and 2001-2005 dodge stratus vehicles manufactured april 17, 2000, to february 22, 2005. in the affected vehicles, the passenger side sun visor may be folded down in such a position that, if the passenger frontal air bag deploys, the passenger side sun visor may detach.
- Consequence:
- If the passenger side sun visor detaches and is propelled rearward, there is an increased risk of occupant injury.
- Correction:
- Mmna will notify their owners, and chrysler will notify the chrysler and dodge owners. dealers will install a tether strap to retain the passenger sun visor, free of charge. the recall began on july 20, 2015. owners may contact mmna customer service at 1-888-648-7820. mmna's number for this recall is sr-15-005. chrysler and dodge owners may contact chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. chrysler's number for this recall is r30.
