• Desiccated air bag inflator rupture investigation # EA21002

  From 2000 through 2017, takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("psan") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004l. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 blomquist report at www.Nhtsa.Gov/sites/nhtsa.Gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.Pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in us vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004l that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All takata inflators produced with propellant 2004l contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated psan inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- takata (now known as tk global), the independent testing coalition, and exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of takata desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004l (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004l is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l.The office of defects investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated psan frontal inflators manufactured by takata. This investigation will require extensive information on takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated psan inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.Gov/recalls?Nhtsaid=ea21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede ea15-001, which remains open.

Me, [xxx], and my ex-wife went to buy this car from a auto auction, plate where out state, but i figure wouldn't cost me much to register, bought it february 6, 2021 and i am kind of short in money to register car but then couple week after driving check engine pop up so i had free check engine by auto zone parts, so then it wasn't serious needed change oil change and filters, so i drove more so everything was going good ready for smoke check, but i didn't have the money so i ask my ex-wife to let me borrow money around may of month, so i was driving to her home, and out of no where i got hit in the front driver side lower fender from some silver low profile car, i was going 30's mile street but when i got hit by anomies driver the driver side bag pop up and also the passenger side too!! I was stunt and confused, wasn't a hard hit, driver that hit me run off, i pulled over the side of street. Couple light show up in dash board i don't recall what they said. I called my lawyer an he mention there was problems and recalls in a takata air bag deploying. I did a research and sure enough my car had takata air bags. I contact to this number [xxx] executive referral manager mercedes-benz usa, llc one mercedes-benz drive sandy springs, ga 30328-4312 phone: 800-367-6372 ext. [xxx] fax: 770-705-0152 on june 11, 2021. I made the report, on june 16, 2921 they sent a email that they will fallow up and investigate, i did sent pictures and mileage 150,000 around there so am still waiting for their action.

Came to my car one day after it sat for maybe an hr at my mechanics house the doors unlocked with remote, went to srart car and it did not a make unlock vibrating sound after that realized it was not working, spent 400 dollars each on two different keys both of those did not work, techs had issue orogramming key

I purchased a 2007 mercedes benz c230 sport from a private seller. I soon learned that the vehicle was in limp mode. The dealer said it was the transmission conductor plate. After hours of research, i discovered several owners of a mercedes with the 772.9 transmission have been experiencing the same issue. I ended up paying $2500 for a new tcu from mercedes benz.

The car reached 110,000 miles and the balance shaft in my m272 is worn out i always take it to get it serviced i found out others had the same problem and created a facebook group i just don't think they should replace it with the same quality balance shaft if it continues to fail prematurely eventually i'll ruin my entire engine which i thought of mercedes to be quality please help vin# [xxx] redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.S.C. 552(b)(6). *cc
