There have been many recalls from most of the automotive companies and we have another one in the North American world of Ford.
Ford Motor Company made two safety recalls even after the team NHTSA, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, rejected the petition made out by Ford, some certain number of Takata driver-side airbags on the very upfront were somewhat filled with the desiccant substance of calcium sulfate.
Team Takata laid their piece of information and told them, to Ford, that this desiccant substance filled in the inflators, can over time, degrade their health after having exposed to longer-term humidity and higher temperatures.
Going about with that piece of substance in the inflator can, upon deployment, can cause the airbag to torment and rupture and could also become the point of severe facial injuries and could pose out deaths too.
Until now the Team Ford hasn’t been in any state of receiving any update and information over the deaths, fatalities, or any injuries caused by the desiccant of calcium sulfate.
Ford believes it hard that, through all the extensive vehicle recall data, the driver-side airbag mechanism is not at all warranted and linked with the safety recall initiations and Ford also filed a petition in August 2017 to the team NHTSA, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
However the team NHTSA didn’t respond with any favor for the team Ford whatsoever and re-tapped the automotive firm with a recall petition and would want a recalling thing done accordingly.
This could turn out to be a thing of the past happening in the present to save the drivers of the future,
