Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1140120 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | March 30, 2017 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | Airbag |
| Production period | January 2010 — December 28, 2012 |
| Vehicles affected | 58,562 units |
Defect
The passenger-side airbag inflator contains a propellant charge with inadequate moisture protection. Repeated cycles of temperature and humidity cause the propellant to degrade. As a result, the inflator housing may rupture during airbag deployment.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the airbag inflator or airbag module with a corrected part. Because replacement parts require additional lead time, if parts are unavailable, as an interim measure, disable the passenger-side airbag function and display a warning on the passenger sun visor indicating that the airbag is inactive.

状況
助手席用エアバッグのインフレーター(膨張装置)において、ガス発生剤の吸湿防止が不適切なため、温度および湿度変化の繰り返しによりガス発生剤が劣化することがある。このため、エアバッグ展開時にインフレーター容器が破損するおそれがある。
改善措置
全車両、エアバッグインフレーターまたはエアバッグモジュールを対策品と交換する。なお、交換用部品の準備に時間を要することから、部品が供給できない場合には、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、助手席サンバイザー部に当該エアバッグが作動しない旨の警告を表示する。
