Takata (TK Global) – Passenger Air Bag Inflator May Rupture

Takata Corporation (Takata) has determined that certain model SPI, PSPI, and PSPI-L passenger frontal air bag inflators manufactured April 13, 2000, to July 31, 2004, and installed in vehicles originally sold, or currently registered, in areas of high absolute humidity, may be susceptible to rupture in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the front passenger air bag. Specifically, vehicles sold, or currently registered, in Puerto Rico, Hawaii, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Saipan, American Samoa, Florida and adjacent counties in southern Georgia, as well as the coastal areas of Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, are susceptible to excessive internal pressure that could cause a rupture.
