More than 6.4 million vehicles in the U.S. are still utilizing 10-year-old airbags from the 2014 Takata recall, labeled the largest safety recall in the nation.
California has over 700,000 vehicles with aging Takata airbags, vulnerable to triggering catastrophic explosions, demonstrating the urgent necessity for their replacement.
The faulty Takata airbags, exposed to heat and humidity, create excess moisture leading to explosive reactions, endangering passengers with metal shrapnel.
While new cars and rentals are protected by law from being sold or rented with open recalls, the absence of a similar rule for used car sales presents a notable gap in safety regulation.
