A fault in the gas generator of the front passenger airbag can cause uncontrolled inflation when the airbag is activated. Because the ignition pressure is too high, it can damage the airbag housing and cause injury.
The recall affects vehicles manufactured between 2000 and 2003.

What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
