The problem
The supplemental inflatable restraint caution label was not placed on the driver's sun visor. This does not meet the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "Occupant crash protection."
The risk
Consequence of non-compliance: operators could fail to notice and heed the warning.
The fix
Dealers will install a warning label on the driver's sun visor.
