BACKGROUND

The subject vehicles are equipped with front passenger airbag inflators produced by Takata. The propellant in these inflators may degrade after prolonged exposure to high absolute humidity and fluctuating high temperatures. Degraded propellant can cause the inflator to explode during airbag deployment. In the event of an inflator explosion, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, striking the vehicle occupants, and result in serious injury or death.
