More than 5 million vehicles in the U.S. will be recalled over separate issues that could prevent frontal air bags from deploying normally in a crash.

Honda Motor Co. said it will recall 2.4 million older vehicles over defective air bags that the now-bankrupt supplier Takata Corp. told U.S. regulators in December could put drivers at risk, the automaker said Tuesday.
