About 600,000 cars nationwide have still not been checked for defective Takata airbags, says the Department of Land Transport (DLT), which is urging drivers to get replacements free of charge.
A system has been in place for several years to remedy the problem, ever since reports began to emerge about problems with the Japanese company’s airbags in vehicles worldwide, according to Jirut Wisanjit, director-general of the department.
