Three Japanese automakers have announced the recall of thousands of vehicles, mostly in their domestic market.
Suzuki Motor is recalling 432,000 small vans in Japan because of a potential problem with air conditioning units.
Nissan's recall involves about 76,000 cars in Japan and more than 2,000 overseas due to a defect that may cause engine failure.
And some 60,000 Daihatsu vehicles are being recalled due to faulty airbags that could accidentally inflate.
The BBC reports the recalls came at a time when Toyota is recalling 8.5 million vehicles worldwide because of safety concerns.
In a statement, Suzuki issued an apology to customers for causing inconvenience.
Nissan said there have been no reported accidents.
