Honda, Mazda may recall more cars

TOKYO: Honda Motor and Mazda Motor may have to recall another 200,000 cars in Japan to replace Takata Corp air bags if Takata complies with a United States order to recall cars across the US rather than just in humid regions. Takata has so far resisted a wider US recall, saying that could divert replacement parts away from the high-humidity regions thought to need them most. Takata has until Tuesday to respond to the order. Meanwhile, Transport Minister Akihiro Ohta said the repeated recalls could undermine trust in Japan’s entire auto industry. Reuters
