IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL
February 2020
This notice applies to your vehicle, VIN: _____________________________________ Dear General Motors Customer:
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2005 model year Saab 9-2X vehicles equipped with a non-desiccated Takata-sourced passenger-side frontal air bag containing the propellant Phase Stabilized Ammonium Nitrate.
Our records indicate that the vehicles included in this safety recall may have had an interim (“like-for-like”) repair performed under a previous air bag recall, to reduce the risk of injury before final remedy parts were available. You received this notice because our records indicate that you own one of these vehicles.
As a result, GM is conducting a safety recall. We apologize for this inconvenience. However, we are concerned about your safety and continued satisfaction with our products.
I M P O R T A N T |
Why is your vehicle being recalled? | Despite the previous recall repair for a “like-for-like” air bag inflator replacement, vehicles containing a Takata-sourced passenger-side frontal air bag inflator remain susceptible to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to high absolute humidity, temperature and temperature cycling. Over time, this could cause the inflator within the air bag to explode when the passenger’s frontal air bag deploys in a crash. If the air bag inflator explodes, sharp metal fragments could strike vehicle occupants, potentially resulting in serious injury or death. |
What will we do? | Your GM dealer will replace the front passenger air bag inflator with a final remedy non-Takata sourced inflator. This service will be performed for you at no charge. Because of service scheduling requirements, it is likely that your dealer will need your vehicle longer than the actual service correction time of approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes |
What should you do? | You should contact your GM dealer to arrange a service appointment as soon as possible. |
Do you have questions? | If you have questions or concerns that your dealer is unable to resolve, please contact the appropriate Customer Assistance Center at the number listed below. |

Involved vehicles are marked “open” on the Investigate Vehicle History screen in GM Global Warranty Management system. This site should always be checked to confirm vehicle involvement prior to beginning any required inspections and/or repairs.
Condition | This recall affects certain 2005 model year Saab 9-2X vehicles which may have had an interim “like-forlike” repair performed under a previous air bag recall using Takata Non-Desiccated Frontal Passengerside Air Bag Inflators containing Phase Stabilized Ammonium Nitrate for Zone A (HAH). Zone A (HAH) includes states and U.S. territories with the greatest temperature cycling and absolute humidity. It includes: Alabama, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands (Saipan), and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The propellant wafers in some of the subject inflators may degrade over time, which could lead to overaggressive combustion in the event the air bag is activated. Overly aggressive combustion creates excessive internal pressure when the inflator is activated, which may cause the inflator body to rupture. Activation of a non-desiccated ammonium nitrate inflator with degraded propellant may result in an inflator rupture. An inflator rupture may cause metal fragments to pass through the air bag and into the vehicle interior at high speed, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants. |
Correction | Dealers are to replace the front passenger air bag inflator. |

Safety Precautions
WARNING: If an air bag system is not handled using proper procedures and methods, it may be activated accidentally during work resulting in life-threatening injuries. If the service procedure is NOT performed correctly, the system may fail to activate when needed. Be sure to perform the proper work safely and according to the instructions in this recall bulletin.
- Eliminate Static Electricity. Before start of work, touch a metallic portion of the vehicle with a bare hand to discharge static electricity charged on your body.
- DO NOT Measure Resistance. DO NOT measure resistance of air bag components. Measuring current of a circuit tester may cause accidental activation.
- Handle The Air Bag Properly. If an inflator is dropped, replace it with a NEW
- DO NOT Allow Foreign Objects Near Air Bag. Collect and account for all removed nuts-bolts to prevent them from landing in the air bag assembly. Any foreign objects in the air bag assembly may cause damage or injury if the air bag is activated.
- Wear Protective Equipment. Always wear appropriate protective equipment when working on the air bag.
- Turn off the ignition.
- Disconnect the Negative (ground) cable from the battery and wait at least 90 seconds before proceeding further.
CAUTION: To avoid scratching or damaging the dashboard assembly, place protective tape on the dashboard around the air bag, if needed.
5145835
- Remove the glove box assembly.
5145837
- Disconnect the air bag assembly harness connector from the support beam bracket.
- Remove the 3 retaining bolts and CAREFULLY remove the air bag assembly from the vehicle and place it on a clean cloth to protect the dash trim surface portion from damage.
NOTE: There may be a Security Module secured with the lower air bag assembly mounting bolt on some models.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT destroy or damage the kit box as it MUST be used for the original inflator’s return shipping. 5145838
- Open the front passenger air bag inflator kit box and confirm all the necessary components are included:
5145840
WARNING: The removed air bag assembly must be mounted to the air bag mounting bracket (Tool # EL-51377) as shown in the photo to better secure it during the inflator and wiring harness component replacement procedures.
Always perform this work in an area away from others to reduce chances of inadvertent injury should any deployment occur. Take your surroundings into account to avoid possible hazards should inadvertent deployment occur or sources of static or other electricity that could potentially induce such a deployment.
CAUTION: Never use any silicone-based products for this purpose.
5145841
- Peel the Sponge Tape and remove the harness clip from the retainer bracket by pushing the tangs inward with a flatblade screwdriver as shown. Always remove any Sponge Tape adhesive residue from the air bag mounting bracket using mild solvent on a clean shop cloth.
5145843
- CAREFULLY cut the yellow harness cover enough (approximately 2 inches) to expose the 2 red (or yellow) wires inside and provide enough room to install the Electro-Tap (shorting) connector using a wire cutter or scissor (no knives or razors). TAKE YOUR TIME AND BE CAREFUL TO NOT CUT THE 2 WIRES!
5145844
- This tab must be cut off.
- Insert 1 wire in the Electro-Tap.
- Crimp closed with pliers.
- Place the other wire in the Electro-Tap, fold then crimp closed with pliers.
- Short the 2 wires together by installing the Electro-Tap connector. The connector creates a short circuit which acts as a safeguard to prevent against static discharge that may deploy the removed inflator. The tab portion of the Electro-Tap connector MUST be cut off prior to use to ensure a good short-circuit is made as shown in the illustration below. Follow the sequence below for installing the Electro-Tap connector. Use pliers to squeeze closed the two sections of the connector together, one section at a time.
5145846
- Once the Electro-Tap connector is fully crimped in place, cut the 2 wires (1) on the body harness connector side of the Electro-Tap connector.
5145848
- Remove the two 8mm self-locking nuts (1) securing the stopper plate. Loosen but do not remove the other two nuts on the mounting bracket as leaving them in place will help keep the air bag assembly together.
5145849
- With the stopper plate removed and the other 2 self-locking nuts loosened, unseat the inflator off the mounting bracket end plate then rotate it slightly CLOCKWISE to make it easier to remove as shown in the photo to the right. Slide the inflator out of its mounting while feeding the cut off portion of the wiring harness through the “D-Shaped” hole in the end of the mounting bracket. NEVER ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE HARNESS FROM THE INFLATOR!
- Place the removed original air bag inflator in the “cradle” of the kit box insert.
5145854
- VERY IMPORTANT: Record the 11-digit alpha-numeric serial number for both the removed (Type 1) and 14digit numeric serial number for the new (Type 2) inflator on the job card hard copy. This information will be required for completion of the Part Return Notice. The new 14-digit numeric serial number is also a requirement for claim entry.
5145856
- Inspect the new Type 2 inflator to confirm the locating protrusions on each of the pink-collar portions are aligned as shown below. The “short” collar can be rotated as needed to align it with the protrusion on the “long” collar if necessary.
NOTE: The Type 2 inflator is installed in the opposite direction of the original. This change puts the connector on the other end. The new harness has been extended approximately 2” to compensate.
5145858
5145861
5145863
- Install the new inflator into the mounting bracket, short collar with the “blank” (no harness connector) end going in first. The protrusion (1) on the short collar will fit in the gap at the bottom of the fixed stopper plate portion. At the same time, the ridge (2) portion of the inflator side of the stopper plate will fit into the “notch” (3) in the end of the collar. When properly installed, the end of the inflator will be seated tight against the mounting bracket with NO gap. DO NOT peel the white harness connection dust cover at this time.
5145864
IMPORTANT: Always hold the stopper plate tight against the inflator as shown above while installing and tightening the NEW self-locking nuts. NEVER reuse the original nuts.
- Install the new stopper plate over the harness connector end of the new inflator.
5145865
- Remove the 2 nuts still installed on the mounting bracket and replace them with 2 NEW self-locking nuts. Once all 4 NEW nuts are in place, torque to 31-38-inch pounds in the new sequence shown below. Use a marker to mark the nuts after torqueing indicating they have been fully tightened.
5145867
- Peel off the white dust cover and CAREFULLY align the tang of the new harness connector with the receiving slot in the inflator connector. This assures proper routing of the harness in relation to the air bag assembly mounting brackets.
5145869
- Once alignment is confirmed, push down firmly to engage the connector. When fully seated, press down on the yellow tab locking the connector to the inflator.
5145870 IMPORTANT: Confirm the harness is not twisted at the inflator connector as shown below.
5145871
- Peel the adhesive backing and install the new Sponge Tape onto the yellow harness tube first then adhere it to the air bag mounting bracket as shown.
5145874
5145875
IMPORTANT: Cross section of the sponge tape installation. The sponge tape (1) must be installed more than half way around the yellow harness tube (2).
22 Install the air bag assembly into the vehicle.
- Carefully place the air bag assembly through the top of the dash. Push down to install.
- Install the 3 retaining bolts from the bottom and torque to 7 Nm (62 lb in).
NOTE: If a Security Module was originally installed to one of the lower air bag assembly mounting bolts, reattach the Security Module. Torque that specific bolt to 10 Nm (88 lb in) +/-Nm rather than the normal 7 Nm (62 lb in).
5145837
NOTE: Before installing the glove box assembly, reconnect the negative battery cable. Turn the ignition key “ON” and confirm the “AIRBAG” warning light comes on then cycles off properly. Once proper warning light operation is confirmed, reinstall the glove box assembly, while making sure the cord loop for the opening dampener (if equipped) stays connected.
5145835
- Reinstall the glovebox and ensure it closes properly.
- Place the removed air bag inflator in the “cradle” of the kit box insert, with a copy of the job card attached to it. The job card number, repair date, repair mileage and full 17-character VIN must be clearly visible on the job card.
- Check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
WARNING: Do not deploy any front passenger air bag inflator prior to shipment. Doing so could result in severe injury to the technician or other people in the area.
IMPORTANT: All front passenger air bag inflators replaced in accordance with this recall must be returned to TK Holdings, Incorporated. Under no circumstances should any replaced air bag inflator be returned to GM, ORIO or Subaru of America. Refer to the return shipping instructions provided at the end of this bulletin.

It is a violation of Federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle or any new or used item of motor vehicle equipment (including a tire) covered by this notification under a sale or lease until the defect or noncompliance is remedied.
The U.S. National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act provides that each vehicle that is subject to a recall of this type must be adequately repaired within a reasonable time after the customer has tendered it for repair. A failure to repair within sixty days after tender of a vehicle is prima facie evidence of failure to repair within a reasonable time. If the condition is not adequately repaired within a reasonable time, the customer may be entitled to an identical or reasonably equivalent vehicle at no charge or to a refund of the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation. To avoid having to provide these burdensome remedies, every effort must be made to promptly schedule an appointment with each customer and to repair their vehicle as soon as possible. In the recall notification letters, customers are told how to contact the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration if the recall is not completed within a reasonable time.
All new, used, GM Certified Used, courtesy transportation vehicles, dealer shuttle vehicles, etc. in dealers’ possession and subject to this recall must be held and inspected/repaired per the service procedure of this bulletin before customers take possession of these vehicles. Involved vehicles must be held and not delivered to customers, dealer-traded, released to auction, used for demonstration, or any other purpose.
All GM Certified Used vehicles currently in the dealers’ inventory within the Certified Pre-Owned Inventory System (CPOIS) will be de-certified and must be held and remedied per the service procedure in this bulletin. Upon submitting an accepted/paid warranty transaction in the Global Warranty Management (GWM) system, the vehicle can be re-certified for sale within the CPOIS system, or once again be used in the CTP program.
Dealers are to service all vehicles subject to this recall at no charge to customers, regardless of mileage, age of vehicle, or ownership, from this time forward.
Customers who have recently purchased vehicles sold from your vehicle inventory, and for which there is no customer information indicated on the dealer listing, are to be contacted by the dealer. Arrangements are to be made to make the required correction according to the instructions contained in this bulletin. A copy of the customer letter is provided in this bulletin for your use in contacting customers. Recall follow-up cards should not be used for this purpose, since the customer may not as yet have received the notification letter.
In summary, whenever a vehicle subject to this recall enters your vehicle inventory, or is in your dealership for service in the future, you must take the steps necessary to be sure the recall correction has been made before selling or releasing the vehicle.
Dealer Reports
For dealers with involved vehicles, a listing with involved vehicles has been prepared and will be provided to U.S. and Canadian dealers through the GM GlobalConnect Recall Reports. The listing may contain customer names and addresses obtained from motor vehicle registration records. The use of such data for any purpose other than follow-up necessary to complete this recall is a violation of law in several U.S. states/territories/possessions. Accordingly, you are urged to limit the use of this report to the follow-up necessary to complete this recall.
Customer Notification
General Motors will notify customers by letter of this recall on their vehicle (see copy of customer letter included with this bulletin).

Front Passenger Air Bag Inflator Replacement
Models: 2005-2006 Saab 9-2X
To: All General Motors Dealers
Fuji Heavy Industries/Subaru has decided that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2005-2006 model year Saab 9-2X vehicles. These vehicles were manufactured by Fuji Heavy Industries for the Saab brand and marketed by GM. As a result, GM is conducting a safety recall. The total number of U.S. vehicles involved is approximately 2,103 and is broken down below:
Bulletin 15047 – 2005 Saab 9-2X – Zone A – 168 vehicles
Bulletin 15048 – 2005 Saab 9-2X – Zone A (HAH) – 298 vehicles
Bulletin 15049 – 2005 Saab 9-2X – Zone C – 1,038 vehicles
Bulletin 15050 – 2006 Saab 9-2X – Zone A – 172 vehicles
Bulletin 15052 – 2006 Saab 9-2X – Zone B – 246 vehicles
Bulletin 15053 – 2006 Saab 9-2X – Zone C – 181 vehicles
It is a violation of federal law for a dealer to deliver a new motor vehicle or any new or used item of motor vehicle equipment (including a tire) covered by this notification until the defect is remedied.
It has been determined that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2005-2006 model year Saab 9-2X vehicles. In these vehicles, the front passenger air bag inflator may experience an alteration over time, which could lead to overaggressive combustion in the event of an air bag deployment. This condition could create excessive internal pressure when the air bag is deployed, which could result in the body of the inflator rupturing upon deployment. In the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the air bag cushion material, which may result in injury or death to vehicle occupants.
Parts are not currently available, but when parts are available, dealers are to replace the front passenger air bag inflator in 2005 model year vehicles, and replace the front passenger air bag module assembly, which includes the inflator in 2006 model year vehicles.
Until further instructions are received, involved vehicles that are in dealers’ possession (used vehicle inventory, GM Certified Used, courtesy transportation vehicles, dealer shuttle vehicles, etc.) must be held and not delivered to customers, dealer-traded, released to auction, used for demonstration purposes or any other dealer use. All GM Certified Used vehicles currently in the dealers’ inventory within the Certified Pre-Owned Inventory System (CPOIS) will be de-certified.

1 Associated Investigation
Air Bag Inflator Rupture
NHTSA ID: EA15001
Dated opened: February 24, 2015
The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened PE14-016 in June 2014 based on six inflator rupture incidents involving consumer owned vehicles produced by five vehicle manufacturers. All six vehicles were operated in Florida or Puerto Rico at the time of the rupture and for the majority of their service life, and were equipped with inflators produced by Takata, a tier-one supplier of automotive air bag systems.
During the course of PE14-016, ODI determined that five additional vehicle manufacturers used inflators of a similar design and vintage also supplied by Takata. No evidence of field failures was found in vehicles produced by these five additional manufacturers. Nonetheless, at ODI’s insistence, all 10 vehicle manufacturers initiated a regional recall within approximately two weeks of the opening of the investigation. The regions recalled initially included Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, areas with high absolute humidity and climatic conditions believed to be a significant factor in the inflator ruptures. As part of the recall actions, inflators removed from remedied vehicles are to be returned to Takata for testing.
Takata’s initial test results on passenger inflators from remedied vehicles indicated a much higher than anticipated rupture frequency for inflators returned from Florida. Accordingly ODI requested all 10 manufacturers expand the regional recalls for passenger inflators to include other geographic areas where high absolute humidity conditions exist, including the Gulf States and other coastal areas. Takata’s testing of the passenger inflators to date continues to indicate this geographic area as having the highest risk, with no ruptures occurring from inflators returned from outside the expanded recall regions. During PE14-016 four additional passenger inflator field events occurred, all in vehicles from the same expanded geographic region.
Also during PE14-016 four additional driver inflator field events occurred including two in vehicles from regions not known for high absolute humidity, specifically California and North Carolina. Accordingly, ODI requested all five of the affected vehicle manufacturers currently using the subject Takata driver inflators expand to nationwide recalls. Significantly, neither of the affected vehicle manufacturers or Takata provided any explanation to account for these two driver air bag inflator ruptures outside the area of high absolute humidity. Takata testing of returned driver inflators indicates a lower rupture frequency as compared to passenger inflator testing. All test ruptures reported by Takata to date have occurred on inflators returned from high absolute humidity areas.
The investigation now includes all manufacturers and vehicles known to be affected at this time. ODI’s investigation will focus on, among other things, root cause analysis, other potential defect consequences, identification of affected vehicles scope, and adequacy of the remedy.
The five ODI reports cited above can be reviewed online at https://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/owners/SearchNHTSAID under the following identification numbers: 10537899, 10568848, 10585224, 10605877, 10651492
