Toyota affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture.
The short version
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing reported a problem with the driver side inflator module. Here is what owners need to know.
The affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag, free of charge.
