Audi and VW recall Q5 and Tiguan crossovers to replace Takata inflators

 Audi and VW are recalling  734 examples of the 2015 Tiguan with production dates between January 15, 2015, and January 21, 2015, and the 2015 Q5 built between January 13, 2015, and February 3, 2015. What is being replaced are airbag inflators that can rupture after a crash. 

This recall is the latest one of many for Takata related airbag issues. Honda recently recalled 2.2 million cars due to faulty Takata airbags. A side airbag ruptured in a 2015 Tiguan in June 2015, and the driver sustained slight injuries under the left arm. The person didn't need to seek medical attention. VW and Audi will advise owners on the recall.

Instagram might soon let you manage multiple accounts

If you’re a business owner who manages both your business’s Instagram page while keeping your own account or are of the younger set who keeps “fake” and “real” accounts, things might get easier for you soon. Much like what Twitter allows you’ll be able to switch between multiple accounts. Instagram confirmed they are testing the feature on its iOS app and users on that platform have started to see it. Instagram started doing this for Android users back in November. But it’s still not an official feature and they won’t say when it would become official.

Those who see the new feature will see an Add Account option in the app’s settings. Once you enter the second account, you’ll see a new menu at the top of your profile page and push notifications will show which Instagram account has some activity.

A ‘MacGyver’ movie and TV show are coming

Ingenuity, duct tape, a Swiss Army knife, and whatever else is lying around are needed to show the young ones that you sometimes need more than a smartphone to get things done. To give them a look of a world before mobile devices, a MacGyver movie along with a new reboot series will be coming. Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer made the announcement during a recent earnings call with analysts. He didn’t reveal too many details about the new TV show CBS ordered as well as the movie. But he did say the film will be produced by series creator Lee David Zlotoff and Neal Moritz, who also produced the Fast And The Furious franchise. The series will be a prequel to the original TV show. And since they’re both Lionsgate projects, we want to assume that they’ll be somehow connected.
