Eight automakers are recalling more than 12 million vehicles in the U.S. to replace Takata air bag inflators that can explode with too much force.

Documents detailing recalls by Honda, Fiat Chrysler, Toyota, Mazda, Nissan, Subaru, Ferrari and Mitsubishi were posted Friday by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

They're part of a massive expansion of Takata air bag recalls announced earlier this month. Friday's recalls include passenger air bags mainly in older models in areas along the Gulf Coast with high heat and humidity.

In addition, Toyota Motor Corp. said on Monday it is recalling an additional 1.6 million vehicles to replace potentially faulty front-passenger air bag inflators made by Takata.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has created some online resources to help consumers whose vehicle may have a defective air bag made by Takata.

A total of 17 automakers have recalled upwards of 68 million inflators around the world, including roughly 63 million in the U.S., after multiple investigations shows that they can cause air bags to deploy with too much force and spew fragments of metal shrapnel into the vehicle. Takata's air bag are responsible for at least 11 deaths and more than 100 injuries worldwide.

How to Check

NHTSA recommends people enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) at this website: https://vinrcl.safercar.gov/vin/.

How To Keep Updated On The Recalls

NHTSA has set up a website dedicated to the Takata recalls:http://www.safercar.gov/rs/takata/index.html. The website will contain regular updates, recall lists, and information on the status of the Takata recalls and its investigation.
