The company announced the expected action Monday morning Tokyo time.

It confirmed that most of its assets will be bought by rival Key Safety Systems, based in suburban³ Detroit.

Takata was done in by defective⁴ inflators that can explode with too much force when they fill up an air bag, spewing out shrapnel.

They're responsible for at least 16 deaths and 180 injuries and touched off the largest automotive recall in U.S. history.
