What is the danger

The propellant airbag inflator may experience a material alteration over time due to degradation occurring after long-term exposure to humidity and may cause the front passenger airbag module to explode when an airbag deploys. 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.
