| 2012-28238 | Safety Advisory Notice: Safety Advisory for Shippers and Carriers of Air Bags | Notice | PHMSA has been alerted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that counterfeit air bags have been sold as replacement parts to consumers and repair professionals. These counterfeit products may contain unapproved explosives and thus pose additional transportation risks when compared to air bags manufactured through legitimate means. Therefore, PHMSA is issuing this Safety Advisory Notice to (1) notify shippers and carriers of problems involving counterfeit air bags; (2) provide guidance on the proper classification of air bags; (3) specify provisions applicable to devices containing unapproved explosives; and (4) provide the next steps that PHMSA will take to address this problem. Consumers or repair professionals who suspect they have a counterfeit air bag should contact a call center established by their auto manufacturer. A list of these call centers and other additional information, including the list of vehicles that may contain counterfeit air bags, can be found at www.SaferCar.gov. | 2012-11-21 | 2012 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/11/21/2012-28238/safety-advisory-notice-safety-advisory-for-shippers-and-carriers-of-air-bags | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-11-21/pdf/2012-28238.pdf | Transportation Department; Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration | 492,408 | PHMSA has been alerted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that counterfeit air bags have been sold as replacement parts to consumers and repair professionals.
