Sam Kazman of the Competitive Enterprise Institute ( www.cei.org ) February 4, 2000 -- Since 1997, at least 3,000,000 vehicles have been recalled due to air bag related problems. Of these, about half were due to problems of the sort that only time and road experience were likely to reveal. For example, nearly 300,000 Ford cars were recalled when air bag sensor wiring "became brittle and crack[ed] over time due to environmental stress." NHTSA Recall No. 99V243. Over 26,000 Saabs were recalled due to corrosion from moisture entering the air bag control module. 99V109. 263,000 Chrysler cars were recalled due to control module corrosion from water or road salt on the car
