Air Bag Inflator Malfunction

Recalls address potential degradation of propellant in air bag inflators, which can cause them to rupture during deployment. This poses a severe risk of injury. Estimated repair cost: $500 - $1,500 (per module).

Over time, coolant hoses, the radiator, and water pump seals can degrade, leading to coolant leaks and potential engine overheating. Estimated repair cost: $400 - $1,200.
