We are pleased that the court's decision has reaffirmed our ability to enforce critical safety standards that protect the American people.
Safety continues to be our first priority.
This is a highly significant issue. Seat belts are the single most important life-saving device in a motor vehicle. This decision is particularly critical now, with our emphasis on children under the age of 12 riding in the back seat, where this particular failure occurred. Approximately 91,000 cars built before that date will be recalled under the court's order. We are gratified that Chrysler must take preventive action to makes these vehicles safer.
