Problem
Passenger's Airbag Inflator recall
A potential concern may exist with the passenger’s airbag inflator in your vehicle and a Product Safety Recall will be conducted.
In some vehicles, the passenger’s front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure upon deployment in the event of an accident. If this happens, metal fragments could possibly shoot out, straight through the airbag cushion material towards the vehicle occupants causing serious injury or fatality.
Solution
The customer is requested to make an appointment with their nearest Honda Dealer to have this recall actioned. As a precautionary measure, the Dealer will replace the passenger front airbag inflator free of charge.
