Hazard
The passenger-side airbag folding dimensions are improper, resulting in gaps between the airbag and its storage compartment in some vehicles. This causes increased lateral pressure during airbag deployment, leading to deployment from the side surface, which may reduce occupant protection performance.

助手席エアバッグの折りたたみ寸法が不適切なため、エアバッグと格納部との間に隙間が生じたものがある。そのため、エアバッグ展開時に側面方向の圧力が高くなり、側面部より展開するため、乗員保護性能が低下するおそれがある。
Remedy
All vehicles: Add reinforcement brackets to the passenger-side airbag storage compartment.
