'Counterfeit airbags pose a serious threat to customers who purchase them and have them installed in their vehicles. These airbags aren't manufactured to industry standards, so there's a real possibility that they won't inflate during a road traffic collision, or will deploy in error.'
'Counterfeiting a device designed to save lives demonstrates the lengths that criminals will go to make money and their disregard for the safety of the people who will end up using these products.'
'The fake airbags we seized today are sold at prices far below the cost of quality, genuine equipment. We know that the offer of a good deal can be enticing, but it's always important to buy vehicle parts from a reputable seller.'
'A consumer alert by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) warned that three people there were killed and two injured between September 2023 and July 2024 after their cars were fitted with substandard replacement airbag inflators.'
