Toyota recalls 5.8m cars<\/strong><\/p>\n

Toyota Motor Corp has recalled about 5.8 million cars at home and abroad over potentially faulty air bag inflators made by Takata Corp.<\/p>\n

According to agency report, the company said in a statement in Tokyo, that the recalled cars included those used as replacement parts following a 2010 recall.<\/p>\n

It said the recalled covered airbags installed in cars produced between May 2000 and November 2001, and April 2006 and December 2014.<\/p>\n

Toyota\u2019s latest recall includes the Corolla, one of the world\u2019s best-selling models, and the Vitz or Yaris subcompact hatchback model.<\/p>\n

It affects about 1.16 million vehicles sold in Japan, about 820,000 cars sold in China and around 1.47 million cars in the European market.<\/p>\n

The recall extends to Central and South America, Africa, the Near and Middle East and Singapore, and also includes the Hilux pick-up truck and the Etios line of sedans and hatchbacks.<\/p>

Automakers worldwide are ramping up the industry\u2019s biggest-ever recall after parts supplier Takata, under pressure from U.S. authorities, agreed earlier this year to declare more of its air bags as defective.<\/p>\n

The air bag inflators in question use a chemical compound which can explode with excessive force after prolonged exposure to hot conditions, and have been linked to at least 16 deaths globally.<\/p>\n

The move shows the complicated nature of the inflator recall, which began around 2008 and continues to expand.<\/p>\n

The latest recall includes about 20,000 cars which were fitted with replacement Takata inflators following an initial 2010 recall.<\/p>\n

The replacement parts are also seen to be at risk of exploding as they do not contain a drying agent.<\/p>\n

Transport authorities around the world now consider inflators without a drying agent to be unsafe, and have ordered all of them to be withdrawn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
