Toyota recalls an additional 33,264 vehicles in Canada over issues with the frontal airbags. According to the Canadian government, the latest recall by Toyota of its vehicles pushes up the total in the country to 400,214 cars since 2013. Toyota has announced it’s expanding the recall of the defective Takata Corp airbag parts around the world. It’s said that the inflators in these airbags can activate with too much force, which could send potentially deadly metal shards into the passenger compartment. The total recall worldwide so far is at 15,314,000 Toyota cars.
