China FAW Car Co, maker of some Mazda models in China, will recall 42,732 Mazda 6 sedans starting on July 20 due to an airbag problem, according to China's top quality watchdog.
Affected
cars were manufactured between March 29, 2003 and April 30, 2004, the General
Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine said in the
circular.
Due to
production faults, the airbag for front passenger seat may fail to work in the
case of collision, as pressure inside the airbag inflator may rise to an
abnormal level and the metal container may break into pieces, which may lead to
air leaks and even fire in extreme cases, the administration said.
The company
will check the affected vehicles and replace the defective parts free of
charge.
