Takata and Honda are both coming under the gun at home, on order of Japan Transport Minister Akihiro Ota.
Bloomberg reports the transport minister ordered the formation of a special task force to oversee the 2.54 million vehicles under recall in Japan over the Takata airbags onboard. The ministry also announced that it would probe Honda's reporting errors in the United States, where 1,729 injury and/or death claims weren't reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration between 2003 and 2014.
Regarding the errors, Honda President Takanobu Ito reiterated that his company misunderstood the the responsibility it was supposed to take in reporting said claims to the agency, that management made several mistakes in filing procedure.
