The U.S. government has ended its investigation against Honda Motor Co. Ltd.'s failure to report death and injury claims. This is because the Japanese auto maker company has succeeded on submitting all the required documents to close the case. The company now targets to sell 1.07 million vehicles to China.
Faizan Hanif, the borther of the teenager who died on a defective Takata-air bag says, his family did not received a notice to recall the car from automakers. His sister, Huma Hanif died after her front airbag to deploy and a metal airbag inflator cut her artery.
Three Honda car owners are suing the carmaker, claiming that the soy-based electrical coatings in their Hondas attract rodents that chew through it, and Honda refuses to cover the repairs.
The top U.S. auto safety regulator on Tuesday imposed a relatively modest $70-million fine on air-bag supplier Takata Corp (7312.T) and ordered it to stop making inflators that use ammonium nitrate.
