Filed June 23, 2014 · Isuzu, Nissan

Overview

MLIT filing number1133810
TypeStatutory Recall (government-mandated recall)
Date filedJune 23, 2014
Manufacturer(s)Isuzu, Nissan
ComponentAirbag
Production periodApril 27, 2001 — April 22, 2003
Vehicles affected129,057 units

Defect

In the passenger-side airbag inflator, the propellant forming process during manufacturing is incorrect, or moisture-prevention measures applied after forming are insufficient, resulting in propellant of insufficient density being incorporated into some units. During airbag deployment, internal inflator pressure rises abnormally, causing the inflator housing to rupture and fragment. In the worst case, this may cause a vehicle fire or injure occupants.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the affected inflator with a known-good unit. Because procurement of replacement parts will require additional time, as an interim measure until parts become available, the passenger-side airbag system will be disabled and a warning indicating that the airbag is non-operational will be displayed on the passenger-side sun visor.

状況

助手席用エアバッグのインフレータ(膨張装置)において、ガス発生剤の成型工程が不適切又は成型後の吸湿防止措置が不適切なため、密度が不足したガス発生剤が組み込まれたものがある。そのため、エアバッグ展開時にインフレータ内圧が異常上昇し、インフレータ容器が破損して飛び散り、出火したり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。なお、改善措置用部品の準備に時間を要することから、部品が供給できるまでの暫定措置として、助手席用エアバッグの機能を停止するとともに、助手席サンバイザ部に当該エアバッグが作動しない旨の警告を表示する。
