AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION:FRONT PASSENGER

Manufacturer

Risk if Unfixed
If the air bag deploys unintentionally during a crash, you could be at risk of injury. The air bag is designed to save lives, but it can also cause harm if it goes off when it's not supposed to.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will replace the faulty weight sensor with a new one at no charge to you. This repair is free, and you should schedule it as soon as you get the recall notice.

AIR BAGS: AIR BAG/RESTRAINT CONTROL MODULE:SOFTWARE

Manufacturer
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
What Happened
The air bag control module in your Odyssey is the brain that decides when to deploy your side and side curtain air bags. Unfortunately, a software glitch in certain 2018-2022 models can cause these air bags to go off unexpectedly.
Risk if Unfixed
If your air bags deploy unexpectedly, they can put you at risk of serious injury. This is because the sudden inflation can cause whiplash, broken bones, or even head trauma.
Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will reprogram the air bag system software or replace the control unit for free, so you should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice. This service is completely free, and you can contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138 for more information.
