Hazard
Investigation of recalled units revealed that inflators (gas generators) in certain types of driver-side SRS airbags exhibit significant density variation in the gas-generating propellant. Although the root cause remains undetermined, there is a risk that the airbag may not deploy properly upon activation. As a precautionary measure, the affected inflators will be replaced with new units.

特定タイプの運転者席側ＳＲＳエアバッグのインフレータ（膨張装置）において、市場回収品を調査した結果、ガス発生剤の密度にばらつきが大きいものを確認した。このため、原因は判明していないが、エアバッグ展開時に正常に展開しないおそれがあることから、予防的措置として当該インフレータを新品に交換する。
Remedy
All vehicles will undergo precautionary replacement of the driver-side SRS airbag inflators with new units, beginning with older model years, as part of recall notification number 3567 dated May 14, 2015. Replaced inflators will be collected and subjected to root-cause analysis.
