NHTSA recall 18V011000
Air Bags · Land Rover
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with certain Air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal Air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment. In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.
Why it matters: An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
The fix: Land rover will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag assembly, free of charge. The recall began June 27, 2018.
