DETROIT
— U.S. safety regulators are checking to see if more
General Motors cars should be recalled because the air
bags won't inflate.
The
probe covers about 400,000 Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic
small cars, the Chevrolet Camaro muscle car and the
Buick Verano small car from the 2012 model year.
The
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says GM
recalled just over 6,800 of the cars in two recalls
last year and in January. The main front air bags
wouldn't inflate due to a defect in the electrical
connections.
The
agency says GM may not have fully identified the cause
of the problem, so it will see if the recall should be
expanded. The agency has no reports of crashes or
injuries from the problem.
