Japanese carmaker Honda has announced it is recalling 440,000 vehicles in the US due to an airbag defect.

One fatality and a number of injuries have been linked to the defect, Honda said. The carmaker had already recalled some models last November.

The recall includes some of the company’s best-selling Accord and Civic models from 2001 and 2002.

The carmaker said it would contact customers and arrange for the airbag to be replaced free of charge.
