Cadillac SRX recall again

Now turn to correct their mistakes and came to General Motors. About 50 thousand cars Cadilac SRX 2010 release revoked in the U.S., Mexico and Canada. The reason was the incorrect operation of passenger airbags. In these machines, an automatic sensing system activation of airbags. Side passenger airbag is disclosed only if the front passenger seat is located. However, this reduces the level of human security, which sits right in the back row. To fix the system need to reprogram it. It is strange that GM missed such an important part of the mind. We also recall that in October 2010, General Motors has already announced the withdrawal of the ill-fated crossover Cadillac SRX. Then in the car, made in December 2009, was discovered by a major defect in the power steering, which could lead to leakage of hydraulic fluid and a subsequent fire in the engine compartment. What you will agree, nasty.
