U.S. Regulators Urge Supplier to Recall 67 Million Air-Bag Inflators for Potential Explosions

Federal auto-safety regulators are demanding a supplier recall 67 million air-bag inflators that can potentially explode, in what could be one of the largest safety actions on record.

The potentially defective inflators, manufactured by Knoxville, Tenn.-based ARC Automotive, have been linked to two fatalities and six injuries in the U.S. and Canada, according to documents released Friday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
