Company refuses U.S. recall request for potentially dangerous airbag inflators
Inc. of Knoxville recall 67 million inflators in the U.S. because they could explode and hurl shrapnel. At least two people have been killed in the U.S. and Canada, and seven others have been hurt as a result of defective ARC inflators, the agency said.
But ARC responded that no defect exists in the inflators, and that any problems are related to isolated manufacturing issues.The next step in the process is for NHTSA to schedule a public hearing. It could then take the company to court to force a recall. ARC did not respond to a request for comment Friday.
GM says it will offer “courtesy transportation” on a case-by-case basis to owners who fear driving vehicles that are part of the recall.
