#Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) is recalling 1 million vehicles in the United States over potentially faulty airbag sensors which could see the front passenger airbag fail to deploy during a crash. The company said that the vehicles, which include certain 2020 to 2022 Toyota and Lexus models, have Occupant Classification Systems (OCS) in the front passenger seat that may have been improperly manufactured causing a short circuit. This would not allow the airbag system to properly calculate the occupant’s weight and means the airbag may not deploy in certain crashes. All vehicles impacted by the recall will have their OCS sensors inspected by Toyota and Lexus dealers and if required, replace the sensors at no cost to the vehicle owner. Impacted customers will be notified by the end of February 2024, Toyota said. More at #Proactive #ProactiveInvestors #NYSE #TM http://ow.ly/oMnJ1056uYE

Nowadays, the safety of cars has become a primary focus for both car manufacturers (OEMs) and customers in India. With the increasing awareness of road safety and the rising number of accidents, consumers are prioritizing vehicles that offer advanced safety features. As a result, OEMs are investing heavily in research and development to enhance the safety standards of their vehicles. Government regulations have also played a crucial role in this shift, with stricter safety norms and mandatory crash tests pushing manufacturers to improve the safety features of their cars. Features such as airbags, anti-lock braking systems (ABS), electronic stability control (ESC), and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) are becoming more common, even in budget-friendly models. Moreover, the proliferation of information through social media and other platforms has made customers more knowledgeable and demanding regarding safety. They are now looking for vehicles that not only offer robust safety features but also score high in global safety ratings like the Global NCAP #Safetyawareness #Safety #IndianOEMs

Counsel at Luther. | Country Head Vietnam | Vice-Chair of the EuroCham Legal Sector Committee (Vietnam)
⚡ Fixing issues ⚙️ 🔌 VINFAST is recalling 2,097 electric vehicles to fix various technical issues. 🚘 Some of the VF e34 and VF 5 Plus cars produced between September 2023 and April 2024 face the threat of bolts securing the upper cover of the high-voltage battery becoming loose, leading to a potential reduction in the water resistance. ⚠️ This issue affects 23 VF e34 and 131 VF 5 Plus units. 🪛 VinFast will inspect and tighten the bolts and replace the high-voltage battery if needed. 💦 VF 6 Plus vehicles produced between March 18 and April 9 this year have a potential defect that could cause the brake fluid hose connectors to crack, leading to possible brake fluid leakage. If the brake fluid drops below the minimum threshold, a warning will appear on the control screen, and the braking system's effectiveness will be reduced. The number of potentially affected vehicles is 47. 🔎 VinFast will inspect and replace the brake fluid hoses in the affected vehicles free of charge. 🗓️ In VF 8 and VF 9 (Eco and Plus) cars manufactured between August 2022 and March 2024, incorrect airbag types might have been installed in certain places. 📏 After approximately 10,000 kilometers of use, an airbag warning and inspection request may appear on the screen. 🔊 If the airbags are not of the correct type, they may not deploy in the event of a severe collision under certain conditions. In all, 1,134 VF 8 Eco and VF 8 Plus vehicles and 762 VF 9 Eco and VF 9 Plus vehicles are being recalled. ✉️ VinFast has reported these issues to the Vietnam Register and will individually notify vehicle owners, asking them to bring their vehicles to authorized service centers. https://lnkd.in/g2uhzSJ5
