Toyota, Mazda and Suzuki issue voluntary recalls of more than 18,000 cars manufactured between 1996 and 1999 that are fitted with potentially deadly Takata airbags.
Toyota, Mazda and Suzuki have issued voluntary recalls of more than 18,000 vehicles manufactured between 1996 and 1999 that are fitted with potentially deadly Takata NADI 5-AT airbags.
"These airbags could injure or kill people in the car by misdeploying in an accident and propelling parts or metal fragments into the cabin of the vehicle at high speed," ACCC acting chair Stephen Ridgeway said. Owners of affected Toyota, Mazda and Suzuki cars are advised to stop driving them immediately and contact their manufacturer to arrange an urgent, free inspection.
