Hazard
In certain driver-seat airbag inflators, inadequate moisture protection of the gas generant can lead to degradation when subjected to repeated temperature cycles in high-humidity environments. This may cause the inflator container to rupture upon airbag deployment.

特定の運転者席用エアバッグのインフレータ（膨張装置）において、ガス発生剤の吸湿防止が不適切であった場合、高い湿度の環境下で温度変化を繰り返すと、ガス発生剤が劣化することがある。そのため、エアバッグ展開時にインフレータ容器が破損するおそれがある。
Remedy
All vehicles: airbag units will be replaced with corrected components. Due to extended lead time for corrected component availability, all users will first be notified by direct mail, followed by sequential contact to users of older model year vehicles in stages as corrected components become available, at which time replacement work will be performed.
