Hazard

In passenger-side airbags, some inflators have improperly installed check valve pins. During airbag deployment, the orifice for supplying inflation gas to the bag may not open correctly, preventing adequate airbag expansion and potentially causing excessive injury to occupants in frontal collisions.
