In the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety’s survey released yesterday many
Korean cars were deemed unsafe due to high numbers of fatalities. Kia is saying the study lacks credibility because it
is basically guestimating the number of deaths per million vehicles when there simply aren’t a million Kia Rios, for
example, on U.S. roads. GM is also disputing the findings, perhaps because the Chevy Blazer was ranked as the deadliest
vehicle in the test.
