Ford And Mazda To Recall More Takata Airbag Inflators
The Center for Auto Safety is the nation’s premier independent, member driven, non-profit consumer advocacy organization dedicated to improving vehicle safety, quality, and fuel economy on behalf of all drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
“Where the petition does reference the testing conducted by Takata on Ford inflators, there is little evidence provided to suggest that these inflators will continue to perform after years of exposure.” – The Center For Auto Safety

Safety regulators decide Ford should recall 3 million vehicles over driver-side Takata airbags.
Ford and Mazda will soon recall vehicles to replace Takata airbag inflators after failing to convince the government there are no problems with safety.
Ford and Mazda issued previous airbag recalls but told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) certain Takata inflators were “inconsequential to motor vehicle safety.”
