About 160 thousand cars with a defect continue to drive along the roads of Russia

Within the framework of a protracted response campaign to eliminate problematic Takata airbags, only a quarter of Mitsubishi cars in Russia were repaired. The rest continue to operate, despite the potential threat to the life and health of passengers. The manufacturer warns that parts can work with destructive power in the accident.

The response campaign of Mitsubishi for replacing traumatic airbags produced by Takata remains unresolved for most owners. Of the more than 200 thousand cars at risk, less than 25 percent arrived at the maintenance station. We are talking about models such as Lancer, Pajero, L200 and Galant. The Russian representative of the brand reported that about 160 thousand cars with potentially deadly components remain in operation.

Representatives of Mitsubishi emphasize that the replacement of airbags continues from the moment the campaign begins and has not stopped. However, it is difficult to contact the owners of problem cars, especially if the vehicle was not served by official dealers or changed several owners. Some car owners, even having received notifications, do not perceive the threat seriously and continue to ignore the need for urgent repairs.

At the end of 2024, Toyota introduced tough measures to combat a similar problem. Corolla, Corolla Matrix and RAV4 Matrix and RAV4 models were strictly recommended to refuse to operate cars until Takata’s pillows are replaced.
