• 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.

Lately, everytime i filled up the gas tank, i can smell gas from the rear left area. After some time when the tank is maybe a little over half the smell is gone. I assume there is a leak somewhere from the fill pipe to the tank. Maybe a bad rubber connector, gasket/seal failure? The vehicle has never been involved in any crash. Normal usage. Low mileage. Should this be covered by mb warranty at no cost to the owner? Thank you.

Every time i fill up my mercedes glk 350 with fuel there is a very strong odor of fuel in my garage after i park the car. There is no visible leak of fuel on the garage floor or notification of any issue on the dashboard. The strong fuel order goes away after driving the car and burning off a gallon or so. This is a serious safety and health issue that started few weeks ago and is of a big concern to me and to my family.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 mercedes-benz glk350. The contact stated that there was an abnormal fuel odor inside and outside the vehicle. The contact stated that the odor was more prevalent after refueling the vehicle. The contact removed the rear seat of the vehicle and noticed a fuel leak around the fuel tank and both fuel pumps. There was also evidence of a fuel leak underneath the vehicle after refueling. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 120,000.

2010 mercedes-benz glk350 4matic. Consumer writes in regard to safety recall notices #16v-081 and #19v-010 defective airbags. *as the consumer stated in order to have the vehicle repaired it would require an expensive round trip ferry for the vehicle. The consumer requested for a mechanic to be able to come repair the vehicle opposed to having it sent away. *js

On a hot humid day on july 21, 2019 after driving for 70 minutes of mostly highway mileage, there was a strong gas smell as i exited the driver's side door. My daughter exiting the rear passenger side door also noticed the intense smell of gasoline. The next day, i drove a short distance of 7 minutes and again i notice strong nauseating gas smell as i exited the car. Called the dealership and told to bring car in as soon as possible. I was informed that the fuel filter cracked. I researched the internet and noted that the 2011 and 2012 glk350 models were on recall list; however the 2010 model was not! I was given an estimate of $1250 (labor and parts included) for the replacement of new fuel filter. I will upload receipts as soon as the job is completed (i am waiting for the work to be completed as i type this report).

Fuel leaking near the rear passenger side coming from top of gas tank near fuel sender. Smell of fuel in vehicle cabin when filling the gas tank to full. Noticed a steady leak of gasoline with 30 drops a minute (when full) and puddle of gasoline on garage floor. The smell of gasoline subsides once the tank is below half full. Fuel leak only when gas tank is full.

Our car has developed a serious fuel leak on the drivers side rear. When the tank is filled to capacity, or near capacity, a serious gasoline odor develops. The other night when we discovered this problem, our entire home became engulfed in these fumes and we had to remove the car from the garage and put it out on the street. Also, when we moved the car out of the garage, we noticed gasoline was dripping from under the car and formed trail of gas all the way out into the street. The leak is caused by a faulty fuel filter/filter housing. This particular part is what was recalled and replaced by mercedes benz in the 20011 and 2012 model years. Our car is a model year 2010, but it has the same fuel filter (part #2214700390 from autohaus az)) and if you shop for a new one, you can see it is the same for the years 2010 thru 2012. The fuel filter is at the top of the tank and can easily be replaced by removing the right rear passenger seat. However, the odor and fumes at times will enter the cabin of the vehicle, and if the car is parked on an incline, leaning from right to left, i am sure gas can travel across the undercarriage and over the hot exhaust.

Extremely strong smell of gasoline when tank is filled, mercedes benz recalled 2011 and 2012 model year glk350 vehicles for a fuel leak but did not recall model year 2010 glk350 vehicles. The same recall is necessary for model year 2010 glk 350 vehicles.

The vehicle is a mercedes benz dealership in raleigh, nc on capital blvd because it will not start. There's a steering lock problem and i was told that only certain vin numbers is covered for this year, make and model. My vehicle has approximately 80,000 miles. I don't understand why this vehicle is not covered under the same recall (started jan 25, 2019) being it's having the same issue at the same time as the other vehicles. The vehicle was at capital chevrolet dealership and they had it towed to mercedes benz dealership and i was told it wouldn't start. Capital chevrolet said that the mercedes dealership said it could happen at anytime and anywhere. I was told the cost is on me. After some research i found out theres a recall on my year, make and model but not my vehicle which is currently at the dealership with the same issue. Can someone explain why this very low mileage vehicle is having the same problem and myself and my grandchildren could lose our lives if it happened with us while occupying the vehicle, who would be responsible for the recall and our lives?
