What Happened with the Subaru Airbag Recall?

Subaru recalled around 500,000 cars because of defects in the passenger's seat airbag.

The company recalled these cars to fix the issues in the Takata airbag inflators. But that was only a temporary measure to solving the problem.

NHTSA says the recalled airbag may explode after prolonged exposure to high temperatures. That's because the fuel in the airbag deflators degrades over time. When that happens, the airbag explodes, spewing out sharp metal objects. These fragments could hit those inside the vehicle, resulting in injury or death.

Subaru says there's no risk of explosion in the driver's seat airbag. Hence, the Subaru passenger airbag recall is to replace the passenger's seat airbag.
