This recall provides a final repair.\n\nLong-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the passenger-front airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function.\n\nSafety Risk:\nIf the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury.\n\nCorrective Actions:\nOwners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to inspect the passenger-front airbag inflator. The passenger-front airbag module or inflator will be replaced as necessary. Note: The Canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.","mfr_campaign":"TKC-20","units":23159,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","match":"exact","models":["IMPREZA","IMPREZA WRX"],"built_from":null,"built_to":null,"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/recalls/tc/2020001"},{"source":"nhtsa","country":"us","campaign":"20V003000","date":"2020-01-02","manufacturer":"Subaru of America, Inc.","component":"AIR BAGS:FRONTAL:PASSENGER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE","summary":"Subaru of America, Inc.
