Takata Airbag Recall Affects Another 5 Million U.S. Vehicles

Posted on by

The NHTSA announced last week that an additional five million vehicles will be added to the Takata airbag recall, bringing the total number of vehicles affected in the United States to almost 19 million. The new list will affect automakers not previously included in the recall, including Volkswagen, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz. The NHTSA have prioritized the replacement of the defective air bag inflators to ensure they are replaced quickly and addressing the highest risks first.

The NHTSA announced new developments about defective Takata air bag inflators in January after an investigation into the ninth U.S. fatality caused by a ruptured Takata air bag inflator in a 2006 Ford Ranger in late December. Based on this incident, Takata announced certain SDI driver side inflators to be defective. In addition, NHTSA said that certain Takata PSDI-5 model inflators were defective, after the rupture of four inflators recovered during a Toyota recall.

Last November, Takata agreed to pay a $70 million fine for safety violations and could face deferred penalties of up to $130 million under a NHTSA settlement.

Below is a list of the newest Takata airbag recalls:

BMW (Recall 16V-071)

Daimler Vans (Recall 16V-077 – including Sprinter Vans labeled Mercedes-Benz, Dodge and Freightliner)

Ford (Recall 16V036)

Honda and Acura (Recall 16V061)

Mercedes-Benz (Recall 16V-081 – including Chrysler)

Volkswagen (Recalls 16V-078 and 16V-079 – including Audi)

NHTSA updated list of all makes and models affected by the 44 Takata recalls.
