Airbag Recall – Extended Requirements
ATL • September 17, 2018
NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) has stated that from 1 November 2018, any vehicle border inspected with an outstanding airbag recall is to be flagged as 'damaged'.
If the vehicle is shipped prior to the recall being completed, the recall will need to be undertaken in New Zealand before the vehicle can be certified for registration and an MR2A issued. This process is likely to incur delays and costs as the manufacturers' agents are entitled to prioritise registered vehicles and potentially charge you for the work.
ATL are pleased to confirm that through our Manufacturer Recall Status Check we will be advising customers of affected vehicles prior to shipping and will be working with suppliers in Japan to implement this process. As per previous correspondence, all checks and procedures implemented by ATL are to be considered as 'additional' to checks and actions taken prior
to shipping being ordered and vehicles being delivered to ATL.
Automotive Technologies Limited (ATL) are proud to announce that they have been awarded the Mondiale Innovation Award at the recent Ministry for Primary Industries Biosecurity Awards. The Biosecurity Awards attracted 70 entries and ATL was also a finalist for the New Zealand Biosecurity GIA Industry Awards. The annual awards celebrate people across New Zealand who have gone above and beyond in making positive contributions towards biosecurity by protecting our environment, our taonga, our economy and our way of life. The winners include leaders, researchers, scientists, communities and innovators. Biosecurity NZ deputy director-general Penny Nelson says the awards celebrate the individuals and teams who are working hard to ensure Aotearoa is safe from pests and disease. In 2018 the Ministry for Primary Industries Import Health Standard effectively prohibited importing vehicles from Japan between the months of September and April without having been processed through approved treatment facilities, placing the entire imported vehicle industry at risk. In quick response to this, ATL successfully designed, built and implemented a purpose-built heat treatment process for the specific treatment of vehicles and were duly recognised for their innovation at the awards ceremony. Jacob Bates, General Manager of Automotive Technologies Limited : “ATL are incredibly proud to receive this award. As a New Zealand company, we know a strong biosecurity border is absolutely vital for a successful economy and we are proud of the role that we play in protecting our borders from exotic pests and diseases. We strive to provide the highest level of inspections and services to vehicle and wider New Zealand industries, and take great pride in the work that we do. To be recognised by MPI for the work and dedication that ATL provide in protecting New Zealand’s borders is extremely satisfying.”
NZ Transport Agency（NZTA）は、2018年11月1日からボーダーチェックで検査された未実施のエアバッグリコール搭載車両には「ダメージ」のフラグが立てられると述べています。 リコールが完了する前に車両が出荷された場合、リコールはMR2Aが発行される前にニュージーランドで行われる必要があります。リコールは現地ディーラーで行われますが、すでに登録された車両を優先して作業されており、かつ、その修理費を輸入者に請求する権利があるため、このプロセスは遅延とコストを招く可能性があります。 ATLは製造業者リコール状況確認を通じて、出荷前に影響を受ける車両をお客様に助言し、このプロセスを実行するために日本のサプライヤーと協力しています。ただし前回の投稿の通り、ATLが実施するこれらのチェックおよびプロセスは、出荷および発注される車両がATLへ搬送される 前に 「追加」で実施されるものです。

ニュージーランドではタカタ製のエアバッグに強制安全リコールが実施されている為、未実施のアルファエアバッグリコールが搭載された車両の輸入、受け入れ、販売はできなくなります。 ニュージーランドへ 出荷される前に 日本で必要なリコールを実施することをサプライヤーに確かめることを強くお勧めします。 ATLは日本のサプライヤーと協力して、出荷前にすべてのアルファエアバック搭載車両が日本で修理されるようにします。ただし、ATLが実施するこれらのチェックおよびプロセスは、出荷および発注される車両がATLへ搬送される 前に 「追加」で実施されるものです。 NZTAのWebサイトを参照してください 詳細はこちら
With a mandatory safety recall being implemented for Takata type airbags in New Zealand, it will no longer be possible to import, comply or sell cars with an outstanding Alpha type airbag recall. We strongly recommend that you talk to your supplier and ensure that they undertake any required recalls in Japan prior to shipping . ATL will be working with suppliers in Japan to ensure that all affected vehicles are reworked in Japan prior to shipping, however any checks and processes implemented by ATL are to be considered 'additional' to checks and actions taken prior to shipping being ordered and vehicles arriving with us.

2018年初旬の問題の後、2018年9月1日以降に日本で積載されるすべての車両がニュージーランドへの入国を許可されるためには、規制の強化や取扱いが必要になるでしょう。 ATLはMPIの承認を受けたバイオセキュリティプロバイダーであり、お客様の車が目的地の国に持ち込まれることを確実にするための方法を開発する先導をしています。
After the issues in early 2018, it is almost certain that all vehicles loaded in Japan after 1 September 2018 will need to have increased controls and/or treatment in order to be allowed into New Zealand. ATL are an MPI approved biosecurity provider and are leading the way in developing methodologies to ensure our customers vehicles are allowed into the country of destination.
