Takata Saab Recall Campaign: New Genuine Airbags Are Finally Available

Is Your Saab Affected by the Takata Recall?

If you own a Saab 9-3 manufactured between 2006 and 2011 or a Saab 9-5 manufactured between 2006 and 2009, your vehicle is very likely fitted with a Takata driver's airbag affected by the worldwide recall campaign.

For several years, many Saab owners found themselves in a particularly difficult situation: their vehicle was subject to a safety recall, but replacement airbags were unavailable or only available in very limited quantities.

Today, this situation is finally changing.

Why Is This Recall So Important?

The Takata airbags affected by this campaign can, over time, suffer degradation of their gas generator, particularly due to humidity and aging.

If deployed during an accident, the airbag may not function correctly or, in the most serious cases, may cause metal fragments to be ejected, potentially leading to severe or even fatal injuries.

This is why this recall campaign is considered one of the most significant in automotive history.

We recommend not waiting before having your airbag replaced if your vehicle is affected.
