Nissan will recall 76,415 cars across 10 models in Japan and 2,281 cars overseas due to a possible defect that may cause engine failure. Suzuki will recall 432,366 units of Every van (2005 to 2009 models) and Mazda Scrum, which it builds for its partner company in Japan after two reported incidents of fire due to a possible defect in air conditioners. Daihatsu will recall 60,774 units of four minicar models in Japan due to wiring problems that could trigger airbags to inflate accidentally. Minivehicles, with an engine size of 660cc, are only sold in Japan. Japan’s transport ministry said the recalls aren’t particularly unusual, however, as it receives about 300 recall filings a year from auto makers.
