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 part that helps the airbag system decide when to deploy in an accident. In some models, this sensor can crack and short circuit, causing the airbag to deploy unexpectedly.
Risk if Unfixed
If the airbag deploys unexpectedly during a crash, it could cause injury to you or your passengers. This is because the airbag is meant to cushion the impact, but an unexpected deployment could hit you in the head or body.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the faulty seat weight sensor with a new one, free of charge. You'll receive a recall notice in the mail, and you should schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
