Defect

In the passenger-side airbag inflator, improper molding of the propellant during the manufacturing process, or insufficient moisture-prevention measures after molding, has allowed inflators containing propellant of insufficient density to be installed. During airbag deployment, internal inflator pressure rises abnormally, causing the inflator housing to rupture and fragment. This may result in a vehicle fire or occupant injury.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the affected inflator with a conforming part.
