Hazard
The passenger seat airbag folding method is improper, which may prevent full deployment during initial actuation due to contact resistance with the case sidewall. As a result, internal pressure within the airbag increases, and in the worst case, the airbag may rupture at the seams, potentially reducing occupant protection performance.

助手席エアバッグの折りたたみ方法が不適切なため、当該エアバッグの作動展開初期時にケースの横壁との接触抵抗により十分展開しない場合がある。そのため、エアバッグの内圧が上昇し、最悪の場合、エアバッグが縫製部より破れ、乗員保護性能が低下するおそれがある。
Remedy
All vehicles: replace the passenger seat airbag with a corrected component.
