"Take the number of vehicles in the field, (A), and multiply it by the probable rate of failure, (B), then multiply the result by the average out-of- court settlement, (C). A times B times C equals X...If X is less than the cost of a recall, we don't do one."
i know it's a fight club quote but man, does a human life has a cost ? young people, mother, father getting butchered by stellantis airbag.
And they are not alone, other manufacturer decided to keep it under the rug, like wolkswagen.
there is the old saying "an eye for an eye", if each time a mother or a kid died because of these airbags you hanged stellantis director's relative, the world would be a better place.
C57BL/6 – the canonical inbred fully homozygous mouse that unfortunately is used as the “HeLa cell” of almost all experimental murine biomedical research. I understand the reason this happened, but there is no excuse in 2024 to use just one genome (and an inbred one at that) to test translational relevance.
Consider this work a pilot worth testing in NZO, DBA, A, C3H and BALB strains and some F1 hybrids. Whatever the results they should have good generality to mice in general.
