Reply to comment by fv7061 in TIL the first confirmed victim of Takata airbags was 18y/o Parham. As she drove around a car park, she lightly bumped another vehicle making the airbag inflate, sending metal pieces at such tremendous force that one hit the teen’s neck slicing open her carotid artery. She bled to death in her seat by ahm713

My girlfriend was working for them when Joyson took over. They laid pretty much everyone off, then called them 3 weeks later to offer them their old jobs for 1/2 the money.

Before they went bankrupt a lot of their employees had license plate frames with "TAKATA" on the top and "We Save Lives" on the bottom.
