Defective Takata air bags are prone to exploding when deployed, hurling flamy shrapnel into drivers and passengers. At least sixteen people have been killed and more than one hundred eighty injured.
The earliest vehicle affected is the two thousand BMW 3-series. Several two thousand seventeen model-year vehicles are also included.
The recall is so large that it covers models from several automotive brands that are long since dead, including Saab, Saturn, Pontiac, Scion and Mercury.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimated at one point that the recall could eventually effect one-fourth of all vehicles in the U.S.
Here’s a list of all the vehicles affected so far, sorted by brand.

Vehicles affected by Japanese auto supplier Takata’s air bag recall will proceed to receive repairs despite the company’s bankruptcy filing Sunday.
Dealers will notify owners when they are eligible for free repairs in the largest recall in U.S. history.
Repairs are expected to take through the end of the decade. The oldest cars in the most humid conditions are generally eligible to be repaired very first, since the ammonium nitrate propellant in their air bag inflators is most likely to degrade.
Defective Takata air bags are prone to exploding when deployed, hurling flamy shrapnel into drivers and passengers. At least sixteen people have been killed and more than one hundred eighty injured.
The earliest vehicle affected is the two thousand BMW 3-series. Several two thousand seventeen model-year vehicles are also included.
The recall is so large that it covers models from several automotive brands that are long since dead, including Saab, Saturn, Pontiac, Scion and Mercury.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimated at one point that the recall could eventually effect one-fourth of all vehicles in the U.S.
