Summary
Service bulletin - Certain Acura vehicles operated in areas known for high absolute humidity and high heat may contain a driver?s airbag that over time may be affected by exposure to the humidity, which could produce excessive internal pressure. If an affected airbag deploys, the increased internal pressure may cause the inflator casing to rupture upon deployment. Metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material possibly causing injury or fatality to vehicle occupants.
