Honda/Acura Airbag Recall

Because I am a Honda associate, I am sharing important safety information about an urgent airbag inflator safety recall. While newer vehicles are also affected, if you drive an older model 2001-2003 Honda or Acura, I urge you to immediately check your vehicle identification number (VIN) – found on your dashboard – for any outstanding recalls by visiting Recall Information for Safety & Defects | Honda Owners Site or Recall Information for Safety & Defects | Acura Owners Site.

If you have one of these older model vehicles that requires an airbag inflator repair, please immediately make an appointment and drive it directly to your local dealership. This repair is FREE and usually takes less than an hour. If your 2001-2003 Honda or Acura vehicle requires replacement of the driver airbag inflator, you may also request complimentary alternate transportation during your repair, or if there is any delay in making the repair. Please help spread the word by sharing this with fellow Honda and Acura drivers.

This is separate from the recent airbag recall affecting Hondas of similar vintage?

If so, thanks for the heads-up.

No, same recall, but Honda/Acura is dialing up maximum effort to get the word out.

The question is: do they have the parts to fix it?

Thanks - took care of the Toaster's recall last year, so I'm set.

Honda's parts division is at max effort to get airbag parts into dealer's hands; contact your local one to get an update.

My g/f"s sister in law has a Honda CRX. It's been at the dealer since May for the airbag recall. She's had a free loaner since May.
