RJ-1101-0

For the passenger airbag inflator, on some vehicles, the sufficient air tightness was not achieved, because the reference value set for the air tightness test was incorrect. As a result, the lack of gas enclosed in the inflator may delay airbag deployment at the time of airbag activation. At worst, a passenger may suffer from excessive damage in frontal collision.
