I WAS DRIVING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR HOME AT AROUND 20 MPH IN A SPEED BUMP AREA. I SUDDENLY BECAME AWARE OF A STRONG BURNING SMELL INSIDE THE CAR. I SLOWED, PULLED OVER AND REALIZED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS BLINKING. SECONDS LATER AN EXPLOSIVE SOUND ERUPTED. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATED. IT COLLIDED WITH AND CRACKED THE WINDSHIELD, BROKE THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR MOUNT AND THREW PLASTIC CHUNKS AROUND THE CAR. SOME PLASTIC STRUCK ME. IT TOOK A FEW MINUTES FOR THE POWDERY SMOKE TO DIMINISH. ON INSPECTION I FOUND DAMAGE TO THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT DOOR AND TO THE DASHBOARD ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. NOBODY BESIDES MYSELF WAS IN THE CAR, FORTUNATELY. THERE WAS ONLY A HAT ON THE PASSENGER SEAT. AFTER…

I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS A TAKATA RECALL OR NOT. MY SRS LIGHT CAME ON AS I ENTERED MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I SMELLED A BURNT SMELL. I PARKED UNDER THE CAR PORT AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I WAS ABOUT TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. IT BROKE THE WINDSHIELD, THE GLOVE BOX AND THE REAR VIEW MIRROR.

WE TURNED ON THE IGNITION TO WARM THE ENGINE A BIT AT ABOUT 9:50 ON THE MORNING OF SUNDAY, AUGUST 6, 2015. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES, THE PASSENGER-SIDE AIRBAG COMPLETELY EXPLODED. THE CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION, IT WAS PARKED, SO THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. WE SUPPOSE THAT IT MUST BE DEFECTIVE. THE SHEER FORCE OF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT RESULTED IN A LARGE, CIRCULAR CRACK ON THE WINDSHIELD, WITH SMALLER HAIRLINE FRACTURES. FRAGMENTS OF BLACK PLASTIC WERE PROPELLED THROUGHOUT THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE. A STRONG SMELL OF BURNING PLASTIC ENSUED AND FILLED THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR. WE WILL NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT HAS BEEN PROPERLY INSPECTED, AS WE FEAR THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE…

AT ABOUT 25 MPH OR 1500-2000 RPM THE VAN SHUDDERS OR SHAKES. I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ON VARIOUS INTERNET FORUMS. THE VAST MAJORITY ATTRIBUTE THIS TO THE TRANSMISSION. UNDER MILD ACCELERATION THE VAN WILL SHAKE OR SHUDDER WITH A FAIR AMOUNT OF FORCE. THIS OCCURS FREQUENTLY AND IS DISCONCERTING TO LOSE EVEN A SMALL AMOUNT OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLES MOVEMENT. DEALER TOLD ME TO CHANGE THE GAS. NO RESOLUTION YET. *TR
