US moves to force recall of 52 million air bag inflators that can explode and hurl shrapnel::The U.S. government is taking a big step toward forcing a defiant Tennessee company to recall 52 million air bag inflators that could explode, hurl shrapnel and injure or kill people.
It’s really a non issue. Good on the regulators for pushing for it, but over 14-15 years across the entirety of US and Canada there have only been 7 possible injuries and 2 possible deaths from it.
Across hundreds of millions of vehicles that have had these in them since 2009.
