Merely telling people to come to dealers is not enough – they need to go out and find these vehicles and get them off the road
NHTSA calls on news media and public to assist in finding unrepaired high-risk vehicles
U.S. auto safety regulators warned on Thursday that Takata air bag inflators on more than 300,000 unrepaired recalled Honda vehicles show a substantial risk of rupturing, and urged owners to stop driving the “unsafe” cars until they have been fixed.
U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, a Florida Democrat, said urgent action is needed.
“These vehicles are deathtraps, and Takata and Honda have understated the risks for far too long,” he said in a statement. “Merely telling people to come to dealers is not enough – they need to go out and find these vehicles and get them off the road.”
