Just as with car seat belts, there was auto producer reluctance about making airbags standards equipment on automobiles.

The other factor with seat belts was that consumers, despite its clear safety benefits, were often not wearing them. Enough so that laws had to be passed to force drivers and passengers to wear them. Once the cost hurdle argument about airbags was done, there of course was no problem about "compliance" as the airbags were an automatic safety device.
