Condensation could enter the airbag control unit and lead to a malfunction, such as its accidental triggering. The product does not comply with the requirements laid down in the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
