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 19 Honda notifications from 2010 in this archive. For scale, 1,116 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 1 year and 11 months.
Defect
Due to improper assembly of the propellant charge inside the passenger-side airbag inflator, some inflators contain an insufficient quantity of propellant. Vehicle vibration may cause the propellant to degrade into a powder. If the airbag deploys, the resulting abnormal pressure rise inside the inflator may rupture the canister and scatter fragments, potentially injuring the occupant.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the affected inflator with a conforming part.

状況
助手席用エアバッグのインフレータ（膨張装置）内のガス発生剤組付け作業が不適切なため、ガス発生剤の装填量が不足しているものがある。そのため、車両の振動でガス発生剤が粉状となり、エアバッグが展開するとインフレータ内圧の異常な上昇で容器が破損して構成部品が飛散し、乗員が負傷するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、当該インフレータを良品に交換する。
