AI DamageHow the defect was found and checked
The supplier found the issue in a production airbag test in November 2023. 69GA checks installation inside the driver’s backrest. The document names no warning signs; no indication alone is not a physical mounting inspection.
Applicability and the full analysisRepair: correct installation, not automatic replacement
The dated remedy correctly reinstalls the airbag if necessary following inspection. It prescribes no part replacement. A new-airbag invoice therefore proves neither an original mounting defect nor completion of 69GA.
