Honda recalls 1.2M more vehicles with dangerous air bags

In this Feb. 14, 2019, photo, this photo shows the Honda logo on a sign at the 2019 Pittsburgh International Auto Show in Pittsburgh. Honda will be recalling about 1 million older vehicles in the U.S. and Canada because the Takata driver's air bag inflators that were installed during previous recalls could be dangerous. Documents posted Monday, March 11, 2019, by Canadian safety regulators show that Honda is recalling many of its most popular models for a second time.

Takata used ammonium nitrate to create a small explosion and inflate air bags in a collision. But the chemical can deteriorate when exposed to high temperatures and humidity and blow apart a metal canister, spewing out shrapnel. At least 23 people have been killed by the company’s inflators and hundreds more injured.

NHTSA, the government’s highway safety regulator, said in a statement Tuesday that only Honda used this particular type of Takata inflator made at the Mexican factory. At this time, the agency believes the Honda problem has been isolated and is caused by a manufacturing issue.

Well kuddos 2 Honda..YOU SEE BOEING? do you see? This is how coperates thta have Human life as a priority react.!!

Mercedes is doing a recall also for the same reason. At least for passenger side ones.

Sounds like a good reason to pay more attention while driving.

didn't we already see one takata airbag recall? are they all shit?

They should recall the cars for accelerating on its own.

Oh?

Glad I drive a vehicle that has no airbags. Just good old steel to protect me.
