GM Petition To NHTSA: Some Takata Airbag Defects Are Inconsequential

January, 2017

Dear Care for Crash Victims Community Members:

Legal Reader has published an excellent article on GM’s “sorry” petition.  “The Takata airbag inflator saga continues as GM tells NHTSA some Takata airbag safety risks are inconsequential. As surprising as that may seem, the company asked the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to relieve it of any notification and remedy obligations pertaining to some passenger-side airbag inflators in its GMT900 vehicle platform. If granted, GM will not have to tell vehicle owners and lessors about the defects in these airbag inflators, much less replace them.” See Jay W.
