- Consequence:
- An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
- Correction:
- Toyota will notify the toyota and lexus owners. general motors will contact the pontiac owners. depending on the model, dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator or the air bag assembly, free of charge. the recall began on december 6, 2016. owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. toyota's numbers for interim notification for this campaign are g1p (toyota zone a), g1r (toyota zone b), g2g (lexus zone a), and g2h (lexus zone b). toyota's numbers for final remedy for this campaign are g0p (toyota zone a), g0r (toyota zone b), glg (lexus zone a), and glh (lexus zone b).
- Notes:
- Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
