In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.

Corrective Action
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag, free of charge.  Owners were mailed an interim notice june 17, 2015.  The recall began on august 21, 2015.  Owners may contact toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.
