Honda adds nearly 105,000 vehicles to US recall
Print Edition
HONDA is adding nearly 105,000 vehicles to its growing US recall of driver’s side air bag inflators that can explode with too much force.
The added vehicles include nearly 89,000 Pilot SUVs from the 2008 model year, as well as about 11,000 Civics from 2004 and another 5,000 Accords from the 2001 model year.
Honda said that it’s the first recall of 2008 Pilots for potential problems with driver’s air bags made by Takata Corp of Japan. The inflators can blow apart a metal canister and spew shrapnel into drivers and passengers. At least six people have died worldwide due to the problem.
Dealers will replace the driver air bag inflators for free. With the added vehicles, Honda has now recalled 5.5 million Honda and Acura cars and SUVs nationwide from the 2001 to 2011 model years because of the air bag problems.
So far, 10 different automakers have recalled over 17 million cars and trucks in the US and 22 million worldwide because of the air bag problem. There could be as many as 30 million vehicles with Takata air bags across the US.
