What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:PASSENGER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE

What Happened
The airbag inflator in your vehicle is a critical safety component that deploys the airbag in the event of a crash. Unfortunately, the inflators in some vehicles may degrade over time, causing them to explode.
Risk if Unfixed
If the inflator explodes, sharp metal fragments could shoot towards you or other occupants, leading to serious injury or even death. This is a life-threatening situation that demands immediate attention.
