The review incorporates 1.16 million vehicles in Japan, 1.47 million in Europe and 820,000 in China delivered between April 2006 and December 2014, Toyota said in a messaged proclamation. The most recent review declaration does exclude models sold in the U.S., where Toyota 7203, - 0.14% TM, - 1.28% has effectively reported a review of autos made amid a similar period, the organization said.
The review incorporates a moment round of reviews of around 20,000 vehicles initially reviewed in 2010. Those vehicles, delivered between May 2000 and November 2001, had broken Takata air packs supplanted with another set that still did not have a drying specialist. The most recent review will introduce air packs that have the drying specialist.
