Summary:
      Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing "Toyota" is recalling certain 2002-2005 Lexus SC and Toyota Sequoia, 2003-2005 Toyota Corolla and Tundra, and 2003-2007 Pontiac Vibe 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 passenger frontal air bag, these inflators may explode due to propellant degradation.

      Toyota will notify the Toyota and Lexus owners. General Motors will notify the Pontiac Vibe owners.
