Certain vehicles of Chevrolet and Honda has been recalled.

According to Stellantis South Africa, they are recalling the Chevrolet – Aveo, Cruze and Orlando, due to a defective propellant inside the driver's airbag.  According to the supplier, the propellant inside the driver’s airbag may experience alteration over time, which may cause it to generate gas faster than designed when the airbag inflator is deployed during a crash.

These vehicles were made available nationally from 2010 to 2018.

Consumers must visit the nearest authorised dealership for the repair or replacement of the affected airbag.

The defect is due to a broken primary drive gear tightening bolt.

According to the supplier, “an engine stops unexpectedly while driving and cannot restart. In the worst case, it can cause engine lock and increase the risk of falling by rear wheel locking.”

Consumers are required to visit their nearest Honda dealership for a replacement with the reinforced Primary Drive Gear Tightening Bolt, which has greater fatigue strength.
