- The propellant used in the passenger-side frontal airbag inflator may experience a material alteration over time due to degradation occurring after prolonged exposure to high absolute humidity, high temperatures and high-temperature cycling. In the event of an airbag being deployed, the excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing injury to the occupants.

What is this? Some General Motors cars have a problem with the front airbag on the passenger side. The airbag may not work safely if it is old or has been in hot, wet places.
What's happening? The airbag might break apart when it opens. Sharp metal pieces could fly out and hurt the people inside.
Does this affect me? This problem is in certain Cadillac, Chevrolet, and GMC vehicles sold in Germany, Luxembourg, and Sweden.
What should I do? Check with a GM dealer or your mechanic right away. Do not ignore this. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you have questions about safety.
