how many hundreds of thousands honda cars are affected by the airbags recall?”
Toyota wasn’t the only Japanese automaker to report an embarrassing recall today. Honda has announced that they are recalling some 2001 and 2002 model-year vehicles to replace the driver’s airbag inflator in an additional 378,758 vehicles in the U.S. The driver’s airbag inflators in these vehicles may deploy with too much pressure, which can cause the inflator casing to rupture and could result in injury or fatality. Owners of the popular Honda Accord, Civic, Odyssey, CR-V, and selected 2002 Acura TL are asked to take their vehicle to an authorized dealer as soon as they receive notification from Honda that their vehicle is affected. Notification to customers will start within this month.
