WTF!

They have also said some dealers will disable the airbag as well. The canister that inflates the airbag is the culprit that is exploding and sending metal pieces (shrapnel) flying into the air when the airbags are deployed. This shrapnel is what is injuring people and causing deaths. It is advised to take to dealer right away, according to NHTSA website.


These are NOT just American cars here in the US, these are calls that are from other countries as well. I'm pretty sure the way this is going, it's going to be worldwide recall according to VIN number. This is going to make GM's ignition and key recall look small....just saying.
