The National Transportation Safety Board has directed the manufacturer to review processes and ensure employee training to prevent safety-affecting defects.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has issued a formal safety recommendation, designated as A-14-130, addressed directly to the GS Yuasa Corporation. This directive, associated with investigation report DCA13IA037, requires the company to conduct a thorough review of its cell manufacturing processes. The primary objective of this review is to minimize or prevent defects that could potentially affect cell safety. Additionally, the NTSB has mandated that the corporation ensure all employees are properly trained to identify and eliminate these specific defects. This action underscores the regulatory body's focus on manufacturing integrity and personnel competency in maintaining safety standards within the production environment.
