Hazard

The gas generant assembly process in the passenger-side airbag inflator is improper, resulting in insufficient gas generant charge in some units. Vehicle vibrations may cause the gas generant to become powdered, and upon airbag deployment, abnormal pressure rise in the inflator can rupture the container, scattering component fragments that may injure occupants.

助手席用エアバッグのインフレータ(膨張装置)内のガス発生剤組付け作業が不適切なため、ガス発生剤の装填量が不足しているものがある。そのため、車両の振動でガス発生剤が粉状となり、エアバッグが展開するとインフレータ内圧の異常な上昇で容器が破損して構成部品が飛散し、乗員が負傷するおそれがある。

Remedy

All vehicles: replace the affected inflator with a serviceable unit.
