Toyota expands Takata U.S. air bag recalls by 1.37 million vehicles

Toyota Motor Corp will recall almost 1.37 million more vehicles in the United States due to potentially deadly front passenger-side air bags made by Japan’s Takata Corp (7312.T), Toyota said on Tuesday. The expansion pushes the total number of Toyota vehicles recalled in the United States because of dangers posed by Takata air bags to more than 2.9 million. Some Takata air bags have opened with too much force, sending shrapnel into vehicles.
