For Consumers
https://www.nhtsa.gov/equipment/takata-recall-spot...Tens of millions of vehicles with Takata air bags are under recall. Long-term exposure to high heat and humidity can cause these air bags to explode when deployed. Such explosions have caused injuries and deaths.
On December 4, 2019, a separate group of 1.4 million vehicles were recalled because of defective Takata air bags. Unlike the air bag inflators in the larger Takata recalls, these vehicles contain Non-Azide Driver Inflators. The defect in the NADI inflators can result in the inflator either exploding or underinflating during deployment.
NHTSA urges vehicle owners to take a few simple steps to protect themselves and others from this very serious threat to safety.
