What are the defects?
Takata airbag inflator: As it gets older, a combination of heat and humidity can cause the airbag inflator propellant to degrade. If an affected vehicle is involved in a collision triggering the airbag, the metal inflator housing may explode/rupture under too much internal pressure.
What are the hazards?
In the event of an airbag inflator rupture, metal fragments could propel out through the airbag cushion towards the vehicle occupants causing serious injury or fatality.
What should consumers do?
Mazda Australia will contact all affected customers asking them to present their vehicle to their preferred Mazda Dealer for the replacement of the Passenger Side airbag inflator at No Charge. Consumers who require further information should contact Mazda Customer Support on 1800 034 411.
