The recall is part of a worldwide recall effort that involves 19 automakers and 100 million vehicles, including 2.7 million added by Takata in July. <\/p>\n<p>The Takata air bag inflators contain a propellant that can decay over time, which could potentially cause the air bag to rupture and shoot shrapnel into the vehicle&#8217;s passenger compartment. Vehicles that have had prolonged exposure to high temperatures and high humidity are more likely to experience the problem. Mazda is recalling certain CX-7, CX-9 and Mazda 6 vehicles from model years 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2012. The recall supersedes one made by the automaker in January that offered a temporary fix for air bags that were most at risk of failure. This time, dealers will permanently replace the faulty air bag inflator.<\/p>\n<p>Takata has known about the faulty air bag inflators since at least 2000. However, the company attempted to cover up the problem with false and fraudulent documents.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.garmerprather.com\/blog\/mazda-recalls-over-79000-vehicles-over-defective-air-bags\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Mazda recalls over 79,000 vehicles over defective air bags\" class=\"more-link\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kentucky motorists might have heard that Mazda is recalling 79,402 vehicles due to faulty Takata air bag inflators.
