Nissan’s act deflates Takata
NISSAN Motor Co said on Saturday it will not use air bag inflators made by Japanese auto parts supplier Takata Corp in its cars.
Nissan joins most major automakers, including Toyota Motor Corp and Honda Motor Co, that decided to stop using Takata's inflators that have led to extensive recalls around the world.
"We have decided to no longer use (Takata's) inflators containing ammonium nitrate in airbags for future models," Nissan said in a statement.
US auto safety regulators have said Takata's inflators containing ammonium nitrate may cause air bags to explode with excessive force, spraying shrapnel in the vehicle.
