Jeep WRANGLER airbag inflator may rupture due to excessive pressure, causing metal fragments

Country	United Kingdom
Category	Automotive
Published	2026-03-20
Manufacturer	JEEP
Models affected	WRANGLER
Units affected	1821
Defect	In the event that the airbag is activated excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing injury to the vehicle occupants and / or in worst cases a fatality. The concern is caused by moisture in the air getting past faulty seals and being absorbed by the pyrotechnic biscuits in the inflator. As a result it is more likely to occur sooner in areas of high humidity and high temperature difference.
Remedy	Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the passenger front air bag module which includes the inflator.
Recall number	R/2026/130
