氣囊存缺陷 通用宣佈全球召回430萬輛汽車

The US car company General Motors is recalling more than four million vehicles worldwide due to a software defect linked to at least one death.

因軟件問題造成至少一名車主死亡，美國汽車製造商通用汽車公司正在全球召回400多萬輛汽車。

The company says the fault is rare but can prevent airbags from deploying during a crash. Seat belts may also fail.

通用公司表示，這個故障很罕見，但是卻能夠在撞車的時候使得氣囊不能彈出。此外，安全帶也有可能不起作用。

It would contact customers and update their software for free.

該公司將和車主取得聯繫，並且免費更新車輛的軟件。

General Motors, which is based in Detroit, said the recall would not have a material impact on its financial results.

總部位於底特律的通用公司表示，此次召回不會對其業績產生特別嚴重的影響。

Of the 4.3m vehicles, 3.6m are in the US, where the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced the recall last Friday.

美國國家公路交通安全管理局上週五宣佈召回的時候表示，在召回的全部430萬汽車裏，有360萬汽車來自美國國內。
