AIR BAGS Safety Recalls

High Priority #26V332000 Plain English
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 part that helps the airbag system decide when to deploy. It's like a scale that weighs the passenger's weight to make sure the airbag deploys at the right time, but in some 2018-2021, 2023 Acura TLX, 2019-2024 RDX, and other models, this sensor can crack and malfunction.
Risk if Unfixed
If the sensor fails, your airbags could deploy unexpectedly during a crash. This increases your risk of injury, especially to the front passenger.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the faulty sensor with a new one, free of charge. You'll get a notice in the mail by July 6, 2026. Schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your safety.
