So sad. I worked in a Subaru dealership, almost 2 and a half years of my apprenticeship was spent replacing the passenger side airbags, first it was the replacement of essentially the same product but then the second replacement of the updated airbag. So. Many. Airbags.

Reply to TIL the first confirmed victim of Takata airbags was 18y/o Parham. As she drove around a car park, she lightly bumped another vehicle making the airbag inflate, sending metal pieces at such tremendous force that one hit the teen’s neck slicing open her carotid artery. She bled to death in her seat by ahm713
