Hazard

The passenger airbag inflator may contain gas generant with insufficient density due to improper molding during the manufacturing process or inadequate moisture prevention measures after molding. As a result, internal pressure in the inflator may rise abnormally during airbag deployment, causing the inflator container to rupture, disperse, and potentially ignite.
