This announcement explained that Takata will, over time, recall additional specific front airbag inflators manufactured with phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant that also do not contain a material called a \u0026quot;desiccant\u0026quot; (a chemical drying agent that absorbs moisture). This expansion impacted Toyota and multiple other automotive manufacturers using specific Takata front airbag inflators.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThis expansion is structured with 5 phases and 3 geographic zones. Time, temperature, and humidity have been found by NHTSA and multiple independent investigations to contribute to significant propellant degradation that can lead to an unreasonable risk of inflator explosion.
