The 2006 Dodge Magnum has 2 recalls, both involving airbag inflators on the driver and passenger sides that can rupture and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a serious injury risk to occupants.
Both the driver and front passenger frontal airbag inflators are affected. If either airbag deploys in a crash, the inflator can burst apart, scattering metal fragments toward the driver or passenger rather than providing protection. This is a known issue across a wide range of Chrysler and Dodge vehicles from this era, and prior repair attempts did not fully resolve the problem for all affected vehicles.
