The automakers listed above say they will be providing consumers with the specific models that are affected by the recall later this month.
These latest recalls are only part of the largest series of automotive recalls in U.S. history.
The 3.3 million airbag inflators added Saturday brings the number of recalls up to a grand total of 69 million inflators in 42 million vehicles.
Takata pleaded guilty to fraud last February to covering up the engineering defects in its airbag inflators.
