Toyota recalls over 3 million vehicles over airbags and emissions

Toyota has expanded a recent recall notice to 3.37 million cars, after problems were found with emissions control systems. An earlier recall of 1.43 million cars was issued due to faulty welds on airbag inflators.

The Japanese manufacturer said a further 2.87 million cars must be recalled due to the emissions unit. About 930,000 cars were at risk of suffering both issues, so the overlap in figures resulted in a total recall of 3.37 million vehicles.
