NHTSA ID:
06V096000
Recall Date:
April 3rd, 2006
Units Affected:
133

Affected Component: Air bags.

Summary: On certain vehicles, due to improper assembly of the air bag inflator, which is used in the side air bag, the curtain shield air bag, and the knee air bag assembly, some inflators were produced with an insufficient amount of the heating agents necessary for proper air bag deployment. In this condition, the expansion force of the gas may be insufficient to properly inflate the air bag when the srs system is activated during a crash. .

Conequence: This may increase the risk of injury to the occupant in the involved seating position in the event of a crash. .

Remedy: Dealers will replace the specific srs air bag. The recall began on april 6, 2006. Owners may contact toyota at 1-888-270-9371, scion at 1-866-548-1851, or lexus at 1-800-255-3987. .
