FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE
CERTAIN 2007 – 2012 MY YARIS SEDAN AND
2007 – 2011 MY YARIS HATCHBACK
BACKGROUND
The subject vehicles are equipped with front passenger airbag inflators produced by Takata. According to Takata, the propellant in these inflators may degrade after prolonged exposure to high absolute humidity and fluctuating high temperatures. Degraded propellant can cause inflator rupture during airbag deployment. In the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, striking the vehicle occupants, and result in serious injury or death.
