Is your Takata air bag under recall?

U.S. agency fines Takata for faulty airbags

U.S. auto safety regulators more than doubled what was already the largest recall in U.S. history on Wednesday. An additional 35 million to 40 million Takata air bag inflators are now in need of being replaced, adding to the 28.8 million already recalled.

The recall expansions are planned to take place in five phases based on prioritization of risk between May 2016 and December 2019, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said in a release.

It is unclear how many more vehicles could be impacted by the expanded recall, but 24 million have been recalled so far. All vehicles included in the recall to date are listed below.

The inflator defect can cause air bags to explode and fire off shrapnel. There have been 10 known deaths in the U.S. and 11 worldwide linked to the issue. More than 100 people have been injured.

In November, U.S. regulators announced a fine of up to $200 million for the Japan-based company -- $70 million for mishandling the way it recalled the millions of air bag inflators, and an additional $130 million if its settlement with NHTSA is violated.

NHTSA has created some online resources to help consumers whose vehicle may have a defective air bag made by Takata.

How To Keep Updated On The Recalls

NHTSA has set up a website dedicated to the Takata recalls: http://www.safercar.gov/rs/takata/index.html. The website will contain regular updates, recall lists, and information on the status of the Takata recalls and its investigation.
