Honda Recalls Nearly 99,000 Vehicles in the U.S. Due to Airbag Defect

Honda Motor is recalling 98,892 vehicles in the US market. The reason is a defective sensor in the front passenger seat, which could cause unintended airbag deployment.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the recall affects certain models, including the Acura TLX, Honda Accord Hybrid, and 2022 Honda Accord.

The problem is related to the front passenger seat weight sensor, which may become damaged and cause a short circuit. As a result, the airbag could deploy even when a child or infant in a special seat is present in the seat, when the system should not allow airbag opening.

According to the company's statement, to eliminate the problem, dealers will replace the damaged sensors free of charge. Honda vehicle owners are advised to wait for an official notification to receive additional information.
