What the reviewed source says

Start with the documented condition, not a parts guess.

The absorbers in the roof frame may not be secured properly and can detach during window air bag deployment. In the event of a crash with window air bag deployment, detached absorbers can strike vehicle occupants and increase their risk of injury.
