- Campaign number: 2018738

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the driver\-front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure during an airbag deployment. If the driver\-front airbag inflator ruptures during deployment, the airbag may not fully inflate, and the release of high\-pressured gas may propel pieces of the inflator and airbag module into the occupant compartment. This could create or increase the risk of injury to occupant\(s\) in a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the driver\-front airbag module.
