2014ref. 80508Washington D.C.: U.S. Government Publishing Office December 3 2014. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. iii 1 260 pages. Some wear to covers. Includes opening statements from Hon. Lee Terry Hon. Janice D. Schakowsky; Hon. Fred Upton; and Hon. Henry A. Waxman. Witnesses include Hiroshi Shimizu; Rick Schostek; Craig Westbrook; Abbas Saadat; and David J. Friedman. Material was submitted on test results for Takata Airbag Ruptures and Recalls by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Safety recalls are often marked by tragedy; that is what brings it to our attention. But they are even more troubling when the very equipment being recalled is intended to save lives. Now this morning we will begin piecing together the history of a safety defect that became known only by what appears to us as fits and starts and seemingly has several potential causes. The first known rupture occurred in 2004 in Alabama. Three more ruptures in 2007 led Takata to identify a bad stamp press at a manufacturing facility in Moses Lake Washington. In 2008 Honda recalled 3940 cars in the U.S. however two more airbags ruptured in May and June of 2009 one of which killed the driver. At that point it appears that Takata believed the airbag inflators were being improperly exposed to moisture during the production process. However about that time Takata confirmed that a stamp press was to blame for the at-risk airbags. In early 2011 uncertainty about the cause of the continuing ruptures led to another recall. Previous recalls were expanded in late 2012 upon the discovery that Takata's production records were in disarray. NHTSA demanded that manufacturers broaden the recalls to the national level. On November 8 2014 NHTSA called for a national recall on all vehicles containing driver-side Takata airbags with defective inflators. This defect also affecting millions of passenger-side airbag inflators as well is known to have been the cause of at least seven deaths and an untold number injuries in vehicles made by ten different vehicle manufacturers. Many of these injuries and deaths were caused by shrapnel created due to the explosive rupture of the Takata airbag inflator and associated housing often in low-speed impacts. As of March 2015 recalls covering 11.5 million vehicles had been issued on various Chrysler Ford General Motors Honda Mazda BMW Nissan Mitsubishi Subaru and Toyota vehicles. NHTSA's action came eleven years after the first reported fatality due to Takata airbags after six years of ever-expanding Honda recalls related to the defective Takata airbags and after a failed attempt by the agency to correct the problem using geographic recalls. The first recall on Takata airbags 08V-593 was issued by Honda in 2008 and included 3940 vehicles. Six years and ten recall expansions later Honda acknowledged that as many as six million vehicles contained the deflective inflators. NHTSA's first defect investigation into the matter PE14-016 began on June 11 2014 six days after NHTSA and Takata agreed via conference call to a series of service campaigns that would replace defective airbag inflators only in the "high absolute humidity" states of Puerto Rico Florida Hawaii and the U.S. Virgin Islands. At the time of the agreement Takata informed the agency that all six known inflator rupture events had taken place in Florida and Puerto Rico. U.S. Government Publishing Office paperback
