Component

AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION:FRONT PASSENGER

Manufacturer
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
What Happened
The front passenger seat weight sensor in your vehicle is a small component that helps the airbag system decide whether to deploy in an accident. It's like a balance scale that measures the weight in the front passenger seat.
Risk if Unfixed
If the sensor fails and cracks, it could cause the airbags to deploy unexpectedly during a crash, which could lead to serious injuries.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the faulty sensor with a new one, at no cost to you. This repair is crucial to ensuring your airbags work correctly in an emergency. Schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice and stay safe on the road.
