Saab airbag recall

Saab is to recall more than 55,000 Saab 900 cars worldwide because of a control unit which could corrode in humid climates – and deploy the airbag. General Motors' Saab unit says the recalled cars are from the 1995 model year.

"It's mostly an issue in more humid, more tropical climates. We began to see it in the Far East and Asia-Pacific markets," says Saab spokesman Kevin Smith.
