The Worst Recall in History

This documentary showcases the mind boggling takata airbag scandal that has caused over 100 million vehicles and over 30 deaths and 400 plus injuries.
even though takata was aware of the problems around their airbags they chose to put money ahead of lives and manufactured airbags that were faulty. they were charged and fined when they pleaded to wire fraud charges. they filed for bankruptcy and were sold to key safety systems who renamed them joyson safety systems, but jss had its fare share of airbags recalls as well and now arc and delphi are both projected to suffer a scandal close to or bigger than takatas scandal

great video dytastic! my takata airbags hit me in the face october 29th 2022. when I totaled my BMW 328i. I got lucky and they completely saved my face! still got a nasty concussion though, but that was from the 40-0 energy transfer. to this day I am extremely grateful my airbags worked as they were supposed to that day.

Hi, I'm excited to see this video! Apart from that, here are some documentaries ideas I have: ● different documentaries on the story of big car brands (GM Ford Toyta Dodge Honda and Etc) ● the story of Supercar Blondie (I like her old content, but not her new on, it is trash. Her story is a real passionating story and I feel like it cannot be a car documentary channel without talking about her) ● How german car commpanies killed 3.4 million people using engineering (I've never really known much about it, but I would be interested in you making a documentary on it) ● The story of Zora (Just, a good story) ● The secret of Toyota's reliability ● The big airbags recall of 2016-2018 (you know when close to 50 million airbags as been recalled?)(seems like this video is it) I hope the quality of the content will be as great as when you we're making honnest commercials!

wait whats good bro? this is dytastic not donut media? 3 mins in and this is great! wish you the best of luck making these documentaries and i hope you find the right audience coming from being the beamng commercial guy. i still i remember back when the dodge commercial came out.

[@NPSpeed3]

Documentaries now? This one is very intriguing. I actually had a 2000 Honda Accord that I got into a car accident with. And the airbag did not Deploy This is a radical change from the content you were making before, but it's educational. I think I can mess with this

My Volvo had an airbag recall, got it done immediately. Don't know who made Volvo airbags in 2001 though.

Loved the video

[@batprime1177]

If the company knew about the hazard, do they drive vehicles with Takata air bags?

[@Yeetixyt]

You wished for feedback so here you go! It’s a cool type of videos! I never really watched car-based history/science/knowledge (you know what I mean) videos so I’ll probably spent some time here. I don’t really have any negative feedback. It was informative and good edited! I have one small thing, which is probably just me: the text and imagine pop-in (not the background but the text or pngs on top of it) is not so cool. Maybe add like a 0,1s appearance time so it still pops in but not so fast. So as you see there really is no real criticism from me. Keep on going!

[@yzremixes]

This is why you just get a nice quick release sparco wheel, BOOM🤯

[@Blank00]

Now Honda is using an airbag that they codeveloped with AutoLiv. Hopefully those are good

[@TJWCars]

Autoliv do Volvo's airbags which as the bag and inflator are perfectly fine, Volvo just made a few errors when installing the curtain airbags on more recent stuff but other than that, they are fine. I also think they do the Airbags for Lamborghinis but stand to be corrected

[@MrHushCrush]

I still need to go and replace my Takata Airbags 😂😂 I’m driving like a real man I guess 😂

[@micklykan7057]

just drive without airbags

[@PS1212]

Can someone please explain to me why they cant just use a canister of compressed air to inflate the airbags? Why the explosives?

[@Xtrachunky]

They essentially were using compressed air, but the air they used turned into an explosive after being exposed to moisture for a long time. I’m not an expert so somebody correct me if I’m wrong.

[@Sleepy_Moon84]

Because it needs rapid inflation immediately. Rapid deployment to cushion the impact.

[@ryanjonathanmartin3933]

Explosives release much more energy much more quickly than compressed air, which helps to inflate the airbag as quickly as possible during an accident.

Weirdly enough it only cost 24 deaths and 200 injuries last time I checked which is on Google. You would think something this serious that would be more deaths than injuries, with how they made it sound more serious than actually was.

[@ryanjonathanmartin3933]

The reason there were "only" 38 (not 24 anymore because some owners did not participate in the recall for various reasons) deaths is because emergency services are much more effective than in the 60s. I can tell you that 1 death caused by faulty safety equipment is a disgrace to... well, safety. 1 injury should already be a cause for concern anyway.
