According to the ministry, the car’s seat belt pre-tensioner, which tightens the seat belt when the air bag sensor detects impact, and side curtain airbags might not work properly when the vehicle is upside down. The recall includes Compasses made between Nov. 2, 2009, and July 16, 2012, the ministry added. Repairs are free at any Chrysler service center.
