33.8 million recalls and only 8 have died yet they make such a massive deal about this as the did with the Ford/Firestone rollovers that happen a decade or so ago. The message is skewed here it would seem as there other products just as deadly that even affect those that don't purchase them, let alone even use them, but we just all turn a blind eye to it and keep on selling them. I guess a product that causes quick death is evil but ones that cause a slow, long drawn out painful one that requires $$$$$$$ for medical care is acceptable? Maybe it's time that we all started to treat each life with the same priority as they do anytime danger of injury or death becomes known with any product that will kill the users or ones around them.

Imagine if it was you who died, don't think you would be saying much then.

KnowBetter, the airbag only deploys in an accident, so all of the cars that didn't get into an accident or deploy an airbag shouldn't be used as evidence that things are working fine.

Clearly anyone who thumbed me down must be a smoker. You couldn't be serious about about life being cheap!
