The replacement airbags do not use Takata inflators. Holden is not using any like-for-like airbag replacements.
What is the problem with the affected airbag?
Some Takata airbag inflators are made with non-desiccated Phase Stabilised Ammonium Nitrate (PSAN) as a propellant. As it gets older, a combination of high temperatures and humidity can cause the airbag inflator propellant to degrade. If the vehicle is involved in a collision, the airbag can go off with too much explosive force, causing sharp metal fragments to shoot out and seriously harm people in the vehicle.
