THIS ADDRESSED A DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAG WHICH COULD DEPLOY AND KILL MYSELF OR A FAMILY MEMBER OR CAUSE TERRIBLE INJURIES TO ANYONE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS.

I URGE THOSE IN A POSITION OF AUTHORITY TO ACT QUICKLY AND DECISIVELY TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE...'''''''...
