Air bags are one of the most helpful accessories that can save your life when you face any dangerous or misery filled situation while driving. However it can also pose great threats.
According to USAToday and CNN’s findings, during accidents, the air bags get inflated, ejecting forcibly a plastic or a metal shrapnel depending on the brand of car. About six deaths involving Honda cars were said to have been excused on faulty Takata bags in the United States and Malaysia. However, safety regulators have still not publicly differentiated the over 34 million cars by the Japanese airbag maker Takata which causes more havoc during accidents.
Transportation Secretary, Anthony Foxx in a statement however said that the Transportation Department
“is taking the proactive steps necessary to ensure that defective inflators are replaced with safe ones as quickly as possible, and that the highest risks are addressed first.”Although a website has been devoted to the Takata airbag recall with a database of what vehicle has this injurious airbags, the list is still being compiled with more names being added to the list.
“We will not stop our work until every air bag is replaced.”
