If you recall, the precise problem with the affected Takata airbags was due to aging propellant in the inflators. Basically, this propellant can become unstable over time, especially in humid conditions. This can result with them exploding with too much force, thrusting metal shrapnel at drivers and passengers. At least 16 people were killed because of this and more than 250 injured in the US alone. Latest reports claim 24 people have died worldwide.
