Filing in context
The Airbag is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 225 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 140 Mitsubishi notifications from 2005 in this archive. For scale, 2,296 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 3 years and 10 months.
Defect
On some vehicles, the airbag control unit was incorrectly assembled with a G-sensor intended for passenger car use, which has a higher sensitivity than the specified sensor. As a result, strong road surface vibration encountered during normal driving may cause the airbag to deploy inadvertently.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the airbag control unit with one containing the correct G-sensor.
