Takata Airbag Safety Recalls
In 2014, a major safety recall was issued for 67 million Takata airbags because they can explode when deployed, causing serious injury or even death. GMMB has continued to support Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), the National Highway and Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and the National Safety Council (NSC) in an effort to get all defective airbags replaced.
While about 88% of airbags have been repaired or replaced, as of 2024, over 6 million are still unrepaired, so our challenge is to continue to message the problem in new ways to reach drivers and owners who haven’t previously acted on the information they’ve seen.
We crafted campaigns for a variety of audiences, especially those who had a higher rate of unrepaired recalls: hispanic, black, low-income, and tribal communities.
