Car makers win delay on installing airbag safety units
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals granted an indefinite delay in enforcing passive restraint standards for airbag devices in cars built after August 15, 1975. The decision, by a 2 to 1 majority, keeps manufacturers from immediate compliance while tests are developed to ensure consistent results across testing agencies. The ruling drew mixed responses from Chrysler, Ford, American Motors, Jeep, and Automobile Importers of America, with some praising the delay and others warning it stalls life-saving safety advances.
