Takata PSDI-5 Inflator: Air bags — inflator module

The hazard

In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.

What to do

Takata will be working with vehicle manufacturers to identify into which vehicles the affected inflators were installed either as original or replacement equipment during service. As this work progresses, numerous vehicle recalls will likely be announced by the impacted vehicle manufacturers. NHTSA will supply this information as soon as possible. NOTE: Toyota has already launched a recall campaign to address their vehicles under recall number 15V-284. Additionally, inflators installed as part of a prior recall remedy are not affected by this recall.
