From the supplier: Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) Pres Brian O'Neill questioned the validity of General Motors' (GM) fire safety tests for pickup trucks with side-mounted gasoline tanks and called for stronger federal highway safety standards. The IIHS report followed a 5,241,612.84 award that resulted from an accident involving a GM pickup truck. The IIHS report cited fallacies in the Failure Analysis Associates report that certified the safety of GM pickups and weaknesses in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 301.
