BACKGROUND
In certain vehicles, the driver’s (front) airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during airbag
deployment. If an affected airbag deploys, the increased internal pressure may cause the inflator casing to rupture.
Metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, possibly causing injury or fatality to vehicle occupants.
A preliminary list of affected vehicles is available and you can identify any vehicles by performing an iN VIN status
inquiry. The final list of affected vehicles may change. All affected vehicles are on stop sale and cannot be sold until the
inflator is repaired with a counter-measured part. Replacement parts are currently not available.
This bulletin will be revised once repair information, warranty
claim information, and part information and stock are
available.
