TAKATA PSDI-5 INFLATOR
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Takata Corporation has recalled certain driver-side frontal air bag inflators that may rupture due to propellant degradation after long-term exposure to humidity, temperature, and temperature cycling. These inflators use calcium sulfate as a desiccant and were installed in vehicles either as original equipment or as replacement parts following crashes. If an inflator ruptures, metal fragments could strike the driver or other occupants, potentially causing serious injury or death.
Takata is working with vehicle manufacturers to identify which vehicles received the affected inflators. Vehicle manufacturers will announce specific recalls as this information is determined, and NHTSA will provide updates as they become available. The source does not specify what individual consumers should do at this time beyond waiting for vehicle manufacturer announcements.

Takata Corporation (Takata) has determined that certain PSDI-5 driver frontal air bag inflators that use calcium sulfate as a desiccant may rupture due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to moderate absolute humidity, temperatures, and temperature cycling. These inflators were assembled as part of the frontal air bag modules, and used as original equipment or replacement equipment, such as after a vehicle crash necessitating replacement of the original air bags. This recall is not for all desiccated PSAN inflators; rather it relates to a subset containing calcium sulfate.
