Safercar.gov

Hi All,

Lots of folks drive cars.  And lots of cars have airbags.  Takata is a major manufacturer of driver and passenger side air bag inflators and they have decided to recall nearly 34 million air bag inflators (yes, million).  Click on this link from Safercar.gov for more information about this massive recall.  Also, click on this link for press releases, defect reports and more from Safercar.gov about this recall. 

Use this link to find out if your car has been part of a safety recall in the last 15 years...

As a sidenote, the Safercar.gov site has a very interesting set of links on topics like Crash Test Ratings, Recalls & Investigations, Complaints & Defects (link wasn't working when I wrote this blog entry), Car Seats, Safety Technologies and Tire Safety.

At the top of the page is a link called Parents Central which has links for Car Seats, On The Move, Teen Driving, In and Around Car, Seat Belts and more.

Enjoy the site - its a surefire winner - and you're bound to learn something from it!
