Mazda, Subaru, Mitsubishi add 720,000 cars to Takata air bag recall

Japan’s Mazda Motor Corp , Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd and Mitsubishi Motors Corp (7211.T) said on Friday they would recall about 720,000 more cars equipped with air bag inflators made by parts supplier Takata Corp (7312.T). The recalls follow similar moves last week by other Japanese automakers to replace Takata’s inflators. Regulators have linked six deaths worldwide to defective Takata air bags which exploded too violently and shot shrapnel into vehicles.
