We don't lose people to the cars themselves. We lose people to reckless driving and traffic: two problems that are fundamentally solved for aircraft.

If the door of a 5-year-old car fell off on the highway, and every car of that make and model were recalled for having loose factory-installed bolts, then people most certainly would panic.
