The original steering wheel may have been replaced with a sport or M-sport steering wheel equipped with a Takata inflator, the agency said. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] If the inflator explodes, it may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants of a vehicle, resulting in serious injury or death, the NHTSA said.
