Should this read “52 million air bag inflators”?

The actual article headline does, unless it's been edited since OP posted it. Reuters uses a British style guide which probably includes that abbreviation.

I for one don't like having stuff near my face that can explode shrapnel.

Just normal car stuff.

There was a recall for this years ago. I'm surprised it's still a thing.

Arc don't just make one kind of airbag. Some of their airbags were under recall but it appears that others were not.
