Several automakers including , , and as well as two airbag makers said they are against . Officials for the safety regulator argued that the inflators produced by should be recalled because they could rupture and send metal fragments flying, according to

Following an eight-year investigation, NHTSA says the defect has been linked to . If this recall goes through, it will end up being , Reuters reports. Despite the, you know, , automakers and the airbag manufacturers maintain that the risk from the issue is “exceedingly small” and they questioned the agency’s analysis and rationale for asking for a recall.

Those inflators have been used in vehicles produced from 2000 to early 2018 by 12 different automakers, according to Reuters. , , i/, and have all filed statements of opposition under NHTSA’s formal comment process.

General Motors has already been hit by an Back in May of this year, it recalled 1 million ARC inflators after one ruptured in March and injured a driver’s face. However, GM — which could have more than 20 million impacted vehicles — said didn’t demonstrate a need for “a massive unprecedented expansion of the existing ARC inflators recalls.” The automaker added that the big recall could impact “as much as 15 percent of the over 300 million registered motor vehicles in the United States,” according to Reuters.
