Extra Toyota recalls more than two million cars

Service campaign from Toyota, which will affect all Corolla Axio models and RAV4, will be held in Japan, China and other countries of Europe and the world.

The campaign will be withdrawn 2 900 000 models equipped with Takata airbags.

The cause of the malfunction of the airbags is to use ammonium nitrate, which can lead to incorrect operation of the inflators. The substance deteriorates over time, and in regions with warm and humid climates it spoils faster. This can lead to the explosion of the airbag when triggered.

The problems with Takata inflators have led to 16 deaths and over 100 injuries worldwide. In 2015 in the U.S., the Japanese company Takata were fined $ 70 million, she was not allowed to use ammonium nitrate. A massive recall of vehicles with Takata pillows began in 2013.
