Takata recall-the front passenger airbag inflator housing may rupture while deploying during a crash. The potential for such ruptures may occur in some of the subject airbag inflators after several years of exposure to persistent conditions of high absolute humidity and/or heat aging. In the event of a front passenger airbag inflator rupture, metal fragment(s) could pass through the airbag cushion material, which may result in additional injury or death to vehicle occupants. Why is there not a fix for this and if there isn't one why is the vehicle not being recalled and those of us who have it being compensated appropriately to get a new vehicle! maybe contacting a lawyer would help. If someone I love is injured or killed because of this there will be a lawsuit!.
