Japan’s Hitachi Corporation has become the latest firm to recall Sony-made batteries amid safety fears.
Hitachi is recalling about 16,000 laptop battery packs, consisting of Sony-made lithium-ion batteries, installed in laptop computers in Japan.
This follows evidence that, in certain circumstances, the batteries can overheat and catch fire.
Dell and Apple launched massive recalls of Sony batteries in recent months and other firms have followed suit.
