Category: Light Vehicle · Supplier: Honda Australia Pty Ltd
Recall date: 19 January 2020
Affected vehicles may be fitted with a Takata NADI 5-AT driver airbag inflator that could allow moisture to enter the unit and degrade the airbag propellant. If this occurs, the properties of the propellant may be changed so that the propellant does not react as intended during a collision, causing mis-deployment of the airbag.
If an affected vehicle is involved in a collision, the airbag inflator could rupture, causing sharp metal fragments to enter the vehicle cabin at high speed, killing or injuring vehicle occupants. There is also a risk that the defect could lead to slow deployment and not protect the driver as intended in a collision.
Owners of affected vehicles should stop driving their vehicle immediately. Owners of affected vehicles should contact the Honda Australia Recall Call Centre on 1800 952 272 (Monday to Friday, 8.30am - 6pm AEST) to organise their free urgent vehicle inspection. If at vehicle inspection the vehicle is identified as containing an affected Takata NADI driver’s airbag inflator, the authorised Honda representative will arrange replacement of the airbag inflator free of charge.
