What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

What Happened
The driver's front air bag in your vehicle is a safety cushion that inflates in the event of a crash to protect you. Over time, a tiny tear could appear in the air bag's fabric, reducing its protective effectiveness.
Risk if Unfixed
If the air bag tears, it might not deploy properly in a crash, leaving you without the full protection it's meant to offer. This increases the risk of serious injury to you, the driver.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix
Your Honda dealer will install a protective covering between the air bag and its housing, ensuring the air bag works as intended. This repair is completely free, and you should schedule it as soon as possible.

Affected Vehicles

2005 HONDA Accord
