Ford is trying to avoid a recall of 2.2 million vehicles after Japanese supplier Takata said the vehicles may have potentially defective inflators.
Ford will petition to avoid an immediate recall of about 2.2 million vehicles with Takata air-bag inflators that the Japanese auto supplier declared defective last week, U. S. regulators and the automaker said Friday.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Nissan Motor Co had agreed to recall 515,394 2007-2011 Versa cars after Takata declared 2.7 million vehicles to have potentially defective inflators.
