Airbag

Recall date July 16, 2014
Models affected

Details

On certain vehicles, the passenger (frontal) airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during airbag deployment.

Increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury.

This could also damage the airbag module, which could prevent proper deployment.

Failure of the passenger airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant.

Correction: Dealers will replace the passenger airbag inflator.

Note: This recall supersedes recall 2013116.

Vehicles that were inspected and/or repaired under the previous recalls will require re-inspection and repair.
