Over 3 years ago (if memory serves me) i posted an article about Takata airbags and their dangers here at SimHQ. December 22th, 2015 in S. Carolina: 2006 Ford Ranger: "The South Carolina Highway Patrol says Joel Knight, 52, was driving on Rocky River Road in Lancaster County when the Ford Ranger hit the cow, causing the truck to leave the highway and crash into a fence. Although Knight was wearing a seat belt, he died of injuries resulting from shards of metal penetrating his neck from the exploding Takata airbag. July 1, 2017 in W. Virginia: driver of a Ford Ranger killed by his takata airbag Ford is recalling every 2004 to 2006 Ford Ranger pickuphttps://jalopnik.com/every-2004-to-2006-ford-ranger-is-being-recalled-over-d-1755288760**check with your cars manufacturer online to see if yours is on any recall list for airbags especially if your vehicle is more than a couple of years old** shrapnel from this exploding inflator often found in the neck of victims

We had one in an Accord, they swapped it out when the car was in for service. The company is BK, the recent notices are to participate in the proceedings if you want to lodge a claim. I didn’t bother yet.
