Stellantis says it confirmed the driver’s airbag inflators blew apart in two cases, killing two drivers of 2010 Dodge Chargers. The company suspects an inflator rupture in another case that also killed a driver of an unspecified 2010 Dodge. All three deaths were in warm-weather U.S. states and happened in the past seven months, the company said.
Stellantis is warning owners of 276,000 older vehicles to stop driving them, Thursday, Nov. 3, 2022, after Takata driver’s air bags apparently exploded, killing three more people. The company, formerly Fiat Chrysler, is telling people to stop driving Dodge Magnum wagons, Dodge Challenger and Charger muscle cars and Chrysler 300 sedans from the 2005 through 2010 model years.
The agency said even minor crashes can cause airbags to inflate with the potential for explosions that can kill or hurt people.
