Hazard

In the inflator (inflation device) of the passenger-seat airbag, some units incorporate gas-generating agents with insufficient density due to improper molding of the propellant or inadequate moisture-prevention measures after molding. Consequently, during airbag deployment, pressure inside the inflator may rise abnormally, causing the inflator container to rupture and scatter, potentially resulting in fire or occupant injury.

助手席用エアバッグのインフレータ(膨張装置)において、ガス発生剤の成型工程が不適切又は成型後の吸湿防止措置が不適切なため、密度が不足したガス発生剤が組み込まれたものがある。そのため、エアバッグ展開時にインフレータ内圧が異常上昇し、インフレータ容器が破損して飛び散り、出火したり乗員が負傷するおそれがある。

Remedy

Replace the passenger-seat inflator with a new unit on all vehicles.
