Doesn't the airline still need to inspect and maintain the planes after purchase?
Yes, but these are likely coming loose due to vibrations over many flights. Other airlines did an inspection after this news broke and found similar problems. Alaska was just the first to run into issues from it.
Doesn't that confirm it's the airline's responsibility then? Things wear down after using them a lot. That's why owners (airlines) need to maintain them.
