There is a recall for the replacement of the passenger airbag module (it's free too). Ours was done in May. It affects all versions covering about 4 million cars!
Something to do with the gas generator being likely to fail to detonate correctly because of damp powder.

As said above, faulty explosive in the front passenger airbag inflator. Takes them about an hour to do.
