They include Toyota, Honda, GM, BMW and Tesla. <\/p>\n<p>The initial recall was announced when defective inflators were found to explode after crashes and spray vehicle occupants with metal shards. So far, there have been 13 deaths as well as hundreds of injuries related to the inflators. Takata filed for bankruptcy in June 2017 and will be acquired by Joyson Electronics. <\/p>\n<p>More than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2018-01-06\/takata-recalls-another-3-3-million-air-bags-under-u-s-order\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">31 million vehicles<\/a> in the U.S. contain these defective air bag inflators. An independent monitor stated back in November 2017 that only a third of the inflators had been repaired as of September 2017. Takata continues to urge customers to have their inflators replaced. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration plans to recall about 65 million inflators by the end of 2018. It will have them replaced in phases, starting with the riskiest parts first. <\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.garmerprather.com\/blog\/takata-ordered-to-recall-33-million-more-air-bags\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Takata ordered to recall 3.3 million more air bags\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Takata Corp., the auto parts supplier that set off a massive recall of air bag inflators, is recalling another 3.3 million air bags under a U.S. order.
