Japanese carmaker Toyota says it will recall 1.43 million vehicles worldwide over faulty airbags. The cars affected are Prius and Lexus models from 2008 to 2012.
日本汽车制造商丰田汽车今日表示，因安全气囊出现故障，将在全球范围内召回143万辆汽车。受影响的是2008年至2012年之间的普锐斯和雷克萨斯车型。
Toyota and other carmakers have over the past years been rocked by millions of recalls over problems with airbags from Japanese supplier company Takata.
在过去几年里，丰田和其他汽车制造商因日本供应商高田公司生产的安全气囊出现问题而召回了数百万辆车。
The latest recall does not involve Takata products and the problem has not been linked to any fatalities or injuries.
不过最新的召回不涉及高田的产品，且该问题还没有与任何死亡或受伤事件相关联。

The recall includes some 495,000 cars sold in North America, 743,000 in Japan as well as vehicles in Europe, China and other regions.
此次召回包括在北美销售的495000辆，日本的743000辆，以及在欧洲、中国和其他地区的车辆。
In a statement relating to the US recall, the carmaker said the vehicles had an airbag inflator that could have a small crack in a weld which could widen over time.
在有关美国销售车辆的召回声明中，该汽车制造商表示，这些车辆的安全气囊充气器的焊接中有个小裂缝，随着时间推移可能变大。
The airbag could partially inflate and parts of the inflator could enter the vehicle interior, leading to "an increased risk of injury".
该缺陷还可能造成安全气囊充气不足，使气体发生器弹入车内，增加事故受伤风险。
Safety devices made by Takata have been linked to 11 deaths and more than 100 injuries. Globally, 12 carmakers have been affected with more than 100 million Takata-related recalls under way or expected.
由高田公司生产的安全设备已经与11人死亡、100余人的受伤事件相关联。而在全球范围内，12家汽车制造商的1亿辆汽车正在或将要受到与高田相关的召回的影响。
