General Motors has announced a recall that involves 843 of its new 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra crew cab pickup trucks over issues with the passenger airbags.

In a crash, the passenger airbag may not fully inflate in the affected trucks. No injuries have been reported as a result of this issue. Fewer than one percent of the airbags in the recall may be affected by the issue.

“Very few vehicles have been sold to customers, and GM is calling each of them to arrange for repairs,” GM spokesman Alan Adler told the Detroit News. “There are no known crashes or injuries related to this issue.”

General Motors will call affected owners, and fix the issues free of charge.
