“In such a situation, the degradation of the substance of the squib is possible. Deployment of an airbag in an accident with a degraded substance can lead to the destruction of the gas generator housing and, in the worst case, the penetration of fragments of the gas generator through the airbag into the vehicle interior, which, in turn, can cause serious injury to the driver and passengers of the car, ”the website explains. Rosstandart.
All work for owners of recalled vehicles will be carried out free of charge.
