Then there's Nu Image. They make a movie, and years later, feel the need to recycle footage for another movie. There's that chase ending with a crash and an explosion in Point of Impact (1993) which was recycled for Never Say Die (1994) and Merchant of Death (1997). Outside of L.A. Heat, PM Entertainment also did that, a well-known example is the first car chase from CyberTracker (1994) being recycled for The Silencers (1996).
There's also footage in Quake (1992) that was reused. First, there's that scene where a downed pole falls on a Ford Thunderbird along with a blue Beetle crashing into it. That part was reused in Shakedown (2002), and more famously, there's the Cadillac convertible driving off an overpass and exploding, which was reused in Caroline at Midnight (1994), Victim of Desire (1995) and Scorpio One (1998).
There's also Hostile Environment (2000), with a sequence where many cars explode. That part was stolen from First Blood (1982), of all movies.
