GM Recall #:
16V063
NHTSA Recall #:
16V063
Date Issued:
Feb 03, 2016
Recall Title:
Driver Airbag
Recall Description:
This part 573 notice is in furtherance of the Takata Holdings Inc. (“Takata”) equipment recall described in NHTSA recall number 16E-005 dated January 25, 2016. This Takata equipment recall relates to all Takata PSDI-5 driver airbag inflators produced from the start of production through the end of model year 2014. Takata PSDI-5 inflators were installed in the following GM vehicles as original equipment: (i) 2003 – 2011 model year Saab 9-3 vehicles; (ii) 2010 – 2011 model year Saab 9-5 vehicles; and (iii) 2008 – 2009 model year Saturn Astra vehicles. In accordance with Takata’s defect determination, GM is recalling these vehicles to replace the Takata driver airbag inflators.
Safety Risk Description:
Takata’s part 573 report for equipment recall 16E-005 states, in part: “Takata has determined that a defect related to motor vehicle safety may arise in some of the subject inflators. Takata is aware of four test ruptures in ballistic tests of non-desiccated PSDI-5 inflators. Takata is not aware of any field incidents in which a PSDI-5 inflator has ruptured, either desiccated or non-desiccated. Takata is taking this action in an abundance of caution, to address all of the subject non-desiccated PSDI-5 air bag inflators, due to the similarities of design and manufacturing characteristics for this type of inflator used in the U.S. market. . . . In the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the air bag cushion material, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants.”
Repair Description:
Dealers will replace the driver airbag inflator on Saab 9-3 and 9-5 vehicles subject to this recall, free of charge. Dealers will replace the driver airbag module on Saturn Astra vehicles subject to this recall, free of charge.
