Another recall over Takata air bags
Print Edition
HONDA said yesterday it was recalling another 4.5 million vehicles globally, as a scare over a deadly defect in Takata-made air bags widens. The move takes to 24.5 million the total number of vehicles that the auto manufacturer has called back after the faulty air bags were linked to eight deaths around the world.
The defect — thought to be associated with a chemical propellant that helps inflate the air bags — can cause them to deploy with explosive force, sending metal shrapnel hurtling toward drivers and passengers.
“Like other carmakers, we are investigating vehicles on the market in connection with this issue, and we found that some inflators have uneven gas density, which we worry could do some harm,” a Honda spokesman said. “It is a preventive measure and unlike other normal recalls we are not waiting for the full results of the research.”
