U.S. to extend airbag probe rather than require vehicle recall

WASHINGTON >> The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said on Wednesday it will not seek an immediate recall of airbag inflators in about 50 million U.S. vehicles assembled by 13 automakers and instead will conduct further investigation. The agency said in July it thought the vehicles posed serious safety risks and was considering requiring a recall. The issue has been linked to one U.S. fatality and seven injuries following an eight-year government investigation.
