Description of the Defect:

In the affected vehicles, the driver airbag inflater may have been misassembled with gaskets missing, which could allow moisture to enter the inflater and build up over time. Moisture exposure over a significant period of time can have an adverse effect to the propellant and result in a change in pressure of the inflater, which may impact the airbag deployment performance. If this occurs, the driver is at risk for injury.

 

Chronology of Principal Events:

October 18, 2023 – During routine maintenance at the supplier, a technician reported a misaligned gasket on a driver’s airbag inflater. The supplier initiated an investigation.

 

October 27, 2023 – The supplier, along with NissaneBay logo, conducted a part sort and identified twenty-one (21) suspect parts. Additionally, NissaneBay logo coordinated a yard audit across multiple plants and identified an additional twenty-six (26) suspect parts that were installed in vehicles. All vehicles containing suspect parts were repaired.

November 2023 through January 2024 – NissaneBay logo and the supplier investigated the potential effect of a missing gasket on the performance of the air bag inflator. Multiple tests were conducted, including humidity cycle testing and durability testing to evaluate inflator performance without the gasket.

Concurrently, NissaneBay logo worked with the supplier to identify the root cause of the misaligned gasket. The supplier determined the gasket installation process was not properly controlled, which could potentially cause one or both gaskets to become misaligned. The supplier reviewed production records and determined that three hundred and fifty-one (351) suspect inflators may have been affected by the supplier concern.

February 8, 2024 – After testing, NissaneBay logo and the supplier determined that there was no immediate impact to inflator performance with a missing gasket, but it could allow moisture to enter the inflator and build up over time. That potential long-term exposure could have an adverse effect on the propellant and result in a change in pressure of the inflator, which may impact the airbag deployment performance.

February 20, 2024 – Out of an abundance of caution, NissaneBay logo decided to conduct a safety recall campaign to remedy the remaining affected vehicles in the U.S. market.

NissaneBay logo is not aware of any warranty claims, accidents or injuries related to the subject condition.

 

Description of Corrective Action:

NissaneBay logo or INFINITIeBay logo will notify the owners of the potentially affected vehicles beginning on April 10, 2024, and urge them to bring their vehicle to a NissaneBay logo dealer or INFINITIeBay logo retailer for repair. Dealers will be notified on February 29, 2024. Dealers will be instructed to replace the front driver airbag assembly with a new one. All repairs will be performed free of charge for parts and labor and should take less than one (1.0) hour to complete.

NissaneBay logo will not include a statement in the Part 577 owner notification concerning reimbursement for the cost of obtaining a pre-notification remedy since the subject vehicles are under warranty.
