The Takata airbag recall has become the largest automotive recall in history, affecting more than 53 million vehicles and more than a dozen car makers around the world.

Among those are more than half a million vehicles in Australia, including more than 410,000 recalled by Honda, Nissan and Toyota over the past week. They join more than 120,000 previously recalled for the same issue in 2013 and 2014 by those three brands, as well as BMW, Chrysler, Lexus, Mazda and Mercedes-Benz.

News of the record-breaking recall has sent a flood of concerned consumers to the government’s recalls.gov.au website this morning. Excessive traffic has crashed the site for hours.

CarAdvice has compiled the following report with everything you need to know about the Takata airbag recall.

What’s the problem?

The recall relates to defective airbag inflators fitted to the driver and front passenger airbags of certain vehicles. The defective airbag inflator wafers are susceptible to moisture intrusion over time, which can cause them to rupture during airbag deployment. Ruptured airbag inflators may create metal fragments that can strike and injure occupants.

After years of blaming manufacturing and component-handling errors for the issue, Takata yesterday acknowledged its airbag inflators were defective.


What’s the damage?

In addition to the 53 million vehicles recalled around the world (including 34 million in the US), the defective airbags are linked to six deaths and more than 100 injuries.

At this stage, there have been no incidents or injuries reported in Australia relating to the defect.

Three other recalls related to the Takata airbag issue were announced in April 2013, June 2014 and November 2014.


How can I get my car fixed?

Car makers will attempt to notify affected vehicle owners of the recall by mail at their last known address and inform them when parts become available.

Replacement parts are currently being prepared, however due to the unprecedented number of vehicles impacted globally, it’s anticipated that sufficient parts may not be available to complete the recalls until next year.

Depending on the vehicle, either the driver and front passenger airbag inflators will be replaced.

The replacement will take approximately 1.5 hours and will be completed free of charge.
