Airbag recall list

As of May 31, no vehicle – including trade-ins – fitted with an alpha-type Takata airbag inflator may be sold in trade without having been reworked and the call back closed out.

From the same date, newly imported vehicles with such inflators that haven’t been reworked were classed as prohibited imports and can be seized by NZ Customs. 
Some dealers will be holding stock affected by the mandatory recall. They should check their vehicles against information on the NZTA’s RightCar website, it aims to be the definitive recalls list, and uses call-back information by Japanese sites and manufacturers.

Traders who have vehicles that haven’t been reworked should contact the marque’s representative in New Zealand to start the airbag inflator replacement process.
