If you have a vehicle with an Alpha-type Takata airbag and haven't had it fixed by the start of next year, then you won't be getting a Warrant of Fitness.

A recall was issued, but there are still a few thousand cars NZ-wide that have not been repaired due to peoples' contact details being outdated.

Six brands are affected by the recall: Honda, BMW, Isuzu, Mazda, Nissan and Toyota (including Lexus). Concerned owners can check whether or not their vehicle is involved in the compulsory recall here.
