A day after Mitsubishi recalled close to 500,000 cars in Australia, they are about to recall 27,000 vehicles in New Zealand. Their cars recalled in Australia yesterday include almost every Mitsubishi model sold there in the past 10 years. While the Mitsubishi recall has not yet been registered on the NZ Transport Agency's Vehicle Safety database, Mitsubishi NZ spokesman Daniel Cook confirmed the plan and said there was a potential risk that could affect a vehicle's headlights or indicators. This comes just a day after Toyota recalled over 35,000 vehicles in New Zealand over faulty fuel systems and airbags, part of a global recall of 3.37 million cars. The 27,000 vehicles set to be recalled include those from the Lancer, Outlander, Pajero, Triton and iMiEV ranges.
