Official summary

Some vehicles may be delivered with a b-pillar trim panel, that has a yellow sticker, which states that it is side airbag compatible. This does not mean that the unit is equipped with side airbags. The yellow sticker on the b-pillar should be removed during pre-delivery inspection (pdi), to avoid confusion. *tt
