7. Air bag woes force Honda, Toyota to recall 6 million Vehicles
By Tom KrisherAssociated Press

DETROIT - Two different air bag glitches ahve forced Toyota and Honda to recall over6 million vehicles worldwide, and both problems present different dangers to motorists. The Toota recall affects about 3.4 million vehicles globally and is being done because the air bags may not inflate in a crash. The cars have air bag control computers made by ZF-TRW that are vulnerable to electrical interference and may notsignal the bags to inflate. The problem could affect as amny as 12.3 million vehicles in the U. S. made by six
companies. It’s possible that as many as eight people were killed when air bags didn’tinflate. U. S. safety regulators are investigating. Honda’s recall covers about 2.7 million vehicles in the U. S. and Canada with Takataair bag inflators. But they’re a different version than the ones blamed for 25 deathsworldwide. Still, it’s possible the air bags could blow apart a metal canister and hurlshrapnel at drivers and passengers. Both recalls were announced on Tuesday. [01/21/2020] In a statement, Toyata said the computer may not have adequate protection againstelectrial noise that can happen in crashes, such as when the vehicle runs under a different vehicle. The problem can cause incomplete opening of the air bags, or theymay not open at all. Devices taht prepare seat belts for a collision also may not work. In most cases, Toyota delaers will install a noise filter between the air bag controlcomputer and a wiring harness. But in some vehicles, dealers will inspect the computerto determine if it needs the filter. Owners will be notified by mid-March. [2020] The recall covers cretain 2011-2019 corollas, the 2011 to 2013 Maxtrix. the 2012 through 2018 Avalon and the 2013 to 2018 Avalon Hybrid in the U. S. Toyota wouldn’t say if it will offer loaner cars to people who fear their air bagsmight not protect them. A spokeswoman suggested that owners call its customer hotline at (800) 331-4331 to discuss their issue. Toyota joins Hyundai, Kia and Fiat chrysler in issuing recalls for the problem. Fourdeaths that may have been caused by the problem were reported in Hyundia-Kiavehicles and three in Fiat Chrysler automobiles. The investigation was upgraded after investigators found two serious crashes involving 2018 and 2019 Toyota Corollas in which the air bags did not inflate. One person was killed. Toyota said it’s cooperating in the probe, which is continuing. NHTSA is evaluating how susceptible the air bag control units are to electrical signals as well as other factors taht could stop air bags from inflating. In documents, the agency said that it didn’t find any other cases of electrical interference in Hyundai, Kia or Fiat Chrysler vehicles tath used the ZF-TRW system but were not
recalled.
ZF-TRW said Tuesday [01/22/2020] it continues to cooperate with the NHTSA investigation. The Honda recall covers certain Honda and Acura vehicles from the 1996 to 2003model years.
