2010 TOYOTA PRIUSTransport Canada Recall #2016335
The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles, a defect in the curtain shield airbags could cause the inflator to fail, releasing pressurized gas into the airbag, partially inflating it. If this occurs, parts of the inflator could also separate from the vehicle structure, entering the interior of the vehicle. Should this occur when occupants are in the vehicle, unintended airbag deployment could startle the driver, and airbag inflator parts could come into contact with the occupants, increasing the risk of injury and a crash.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Dealers will install a retention bracket which will prevent the inflator parts from entering the vehicle interior.
