Fiat Chrysler Automobiles said today it will no longer be using any Takata air bag inflators that use ammonium nitrate without a protective powder as the propellant in any of its vehicles in North America by the end of next week.
Ruptures of those Takata inflators have been tied to ten deaths and more than 100 injuries in the United States, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and are part of the largest automotive recall in U.S. history.
