Owners notified August 10, 2016 · Vehicles built April 21, 2014 – July 29, 2016 (per NHTSA)

Defect description

Pagani Automobili SpA (Pagani) is recalling certain model year 2014-2016 Huayra vehicles manufactured April 21, 2014, to July 29, 2016. In the affected vehicles, the driver side frontal air bag may not remain adequately secured to the steering wheel during deployment, and therefore the air bag may deploy improperly.

Safety consequence

Manufacturer remedy
