How Common Are Airbag Injuries?

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), frontal airbags caused the death of approximately 290 people between 1990 and 2008. The IIHS says that airbags that are properly functioning rarely cause injuries today. However, defective airbags like the Takata airbags can cause serious injuries. These notorious airbags killed at least 23 people and injured hundreds more.
