Defect
In the passenger-side single-stage deployment control airbag inflator, the root cause has not been identified; however, the inflator housing may rupture during airbag deployment. As a preventive measure, the inflator will be replaced on all vehicles.
Corrective action
As a preventive measure on all vehicles, and as included under notification No. 3563 dated May 13, 2015, each inflator housing will be inspected for airtight integrity. Units that fail the airtight inspection will have the inflator replaced with a new unit or the passenger-side airbag function disabled. Once replacement parts become available, units will be replaced with new inflators in order from oldest model year. All removed inflators will be collected in their entirety for root-cause investigation.
