Honda says it will recall 5.7m cars
Print Edition
Honda Motor Co said yesterday it will recall 5.7 million cars worldwide in the latest round involving Takata Corp air bag inflators that can explode and hurl shrapnel into the vehicle.
The total includes 440,000 cars in Japan and 2.2 million in the United States.
Honda spokeswoman Yuka Abe declined to say where the other recalls will be, but said they are pending negotiations with the relevant authorities in each country.
Takata’s inflators can explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister. At least 11 people have died from the problem, and 139 have been injured.
About 24 million vehicles are being recalled in the US. The 13 models recalled in Japan include a popular subcompact called the Fit.
