  "textContent": "Vehicles affected: TESLA MODEL S (2012)\n\nSummary: Tesla Motors, Inc. (Tesla) is recalling all 2012 Model S vehicles.  These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag inflators assembled as part of the passenger frontal air bag modules used as original equipment or replacement equipment.  In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the frontal air bags, these inflators may rupture due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to absolute humidity and temperature cycling.\n\nConsequence: An inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants resulting in serious injury or death.\n\nRemedy: Tesla will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front passenger air bag, free of charge.  The recall began September 12, 2017.  Owners may contact Tesla customer service at 1-877-798-3752.",
