Volkswagen has placed a recall on nearly 115,000 vehicles.

The recall covers Beetle models with years 2017-2019 as well as Passat models ranging from 2006-2017 depending on the certain style.

The vehicle’s have a driver’s side frontal airbag inflator with a propellant that can degrade over time from exposure to high humidity, temperatures and high-temperature cycling.

If exposed, the inflator could explode shooting out sharp metal fragments that could result in injuries or even death.

Owners can take their vehicle to a dealership to have the airbag module replaced.
