Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2003 Acura 3.2CL, 2002-2003 3.2TL, 2003-2006 MDX, 2001-2007 Honda Accord, 2001-2005 Civic, 2003-2005 Civic Hybrid, 2001-2005 Civic GX NGV, 2002-2006 CR-V, 2003-2011 Element, 2002-2004 Odyssey, 2003-2008 Pilot and 2006 Ridgeline vehicles.

An inflator explosion may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began August 12, 2019. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's numbers for this recall are Q5A and Y58.

The affected vehicles received a replacement driver air bag inflator as part of a previous Takata inflator recall remedy or a replacement driver air bag module containing the same inflator type as a service part. Due to a manufacturing error, in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver frontal air bag, these inflators may explode.
An explosion of an inflator within the driver frontal air bag module may result in sharp metal fragments striking the driver, front seat passenger or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's air bag inflator with an alternate inflator, free of charge. The recall began April 10, 2019.

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain model year 2001-2007 Accord, 2001-2005 Civic, 2001-2004 Honda Civic GX, 2003-2005 Honda Civic Hybrid, 2002-2006 CR-V, 2003-2011 Element, 2002-2004 Odyssey, 2003-2008 Pilot, 2006 Ridgeline, 2003 Acura 3.2CL, 2003-2006 Acura MDX, and 2002-2003 Acura 3.2TL vehicles. The affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion and other factors, including manufacturing variability that, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began on July 1, 2015. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Owners may contact Acura customer service at 1-800-382-2238, select option 4. Note: Vehicles that have had their driver frontal air bag replaced previously as part of a recall remedy prior to September 12, 2014 need to have their air bag replaced under this recall as well. Vehicles that, on or after September 12, 2014, received a remedy for a prior driver frontal air bag inflator recall already received an inflator of a different design, and therefore are not included in this recall and do not require additional servicing. Note: This recall fully supersedes recalls 08V-593, 09V-259, 10V-041, 11V-260, 14V-351 and 15V-153. Honda's numbers for this recall are JQ9, JR0, JR1, JR2, JR3, JR4, JR5, JR6, JR7, and JR8.

I REALLY LOVE MY HONDA ACCORDS. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL. THIS IS THE FIRST ONE I HAVE OWNED WITH OVER 125K MILES. IT WAS GIVEN TO ME BY MY MOTHER-IN-LAW. SHE OWNED IT FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS. IT START TO SEEM LIKE IT WAS A LITTLE OFF MECHANICALLY. SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUES WERE AND AFTER 7 YEARS SHE DIDN'T WANT TO PUT A TON OF MONEY INTO IT. SO SHE PARKED THIS ONE AND BOUGHT A NEW ONE. IT WAS PARKED FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS BEFORE I STARTED DRIVING IT. SINCE IT WAS SITTING FOR A WHILE I DID CHANGE THE OIL AND MAKE SURE OTHER FLUIDS WERE TOPPED OFF. RIGHT AWAY, I NOTICE THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING HARD AND SLIPPING A LITTLE. SO I PULLED OVER AND CHECKED THE GRANNY FLUID WHICH WAS PERFECT! I JUST FIGURED MAYBE IT JUST NEEDED TO BE DRIVEN A LITTLE AND LUBE EVERYTHING UP AGAIN. I CHECKED THE FLUID DAILY WITH NO CHANGE TO THE LEVEL. A WEEK LATER IT'S STILL THE SAME. WITH NO IMPROVEMENT I DRAINED A LITTLE FLUID OUT AND ADDED LUCAS AS RECOMMENDED BY MY HONDA SERVICE TECH. STILL NO IMPROVEMENT. I RESEARCHED A LITTLE AND FOUND THAT THIS IS COMMON TO START HAVING ISSUES AROUND 150K MILES. THAT'S HARDLY ANY MILES FOR A HONDA! IN FURTHER RESEARCH I FIND THAT NEARLY EVERY HONDA FOR SALE IS BEING SOLD DUE TO THE START OF GRANNY PROBLEMS AND EVERY ONE THAT'S BEING PARTED OUT IS BEING PARTED OUT BECAUSE THE GRANNY WENT OUT. SO NO LUCK ON A USED GRANNY SWAP! I AM ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED THAT WITH THE EXCELLENT REPUTATION HONDA HAS THAT THIS HASN'T BEEN A PART OF A RECALL! I MEAN COME ON HONDA...I REALIZE THIS IS AN EXPENSIVE PART TO HAVE RECALLED, BUT WHEN YOUR REPUTATION GOES DOWN THE TOILET OVER THE 6TH GEN ACCORD TRANSMISSION...WHAT WILL EFFECT THE COMPANIES WORTH MORE? THE COST OF THIS BECOMING A RECALL AND REPLACING THESE TRANSMISSIONS OR THE DECLINE IN FUTURE SALES DUE TO NOT REPAIRING THE VEHICLES THAT PEOPLE PAY HARD EARNED MONEY FOR?!

WHILE CHANGING THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY CAR I NOTICED THE RIGHT REAR CORNER OF MY SUBFRAME WAS HEAVILY RUSTED. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION THE SUBFRAME HAS RUSTED THROUGH IN SEVERAL SPOTS. DIRECTLY BELOW THE AIR CONDITIONING DRAIN TUBE I WAS ABLE TO PUT A FINGER THROUGH THE METAL WITH LITTLE TO NO PRESSURE. THE LOCATION OF THIS DRAIN TUBE ALLOWS WATER TO DRIP DIRECTLY ONTO THE SUBFRAME. THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SUBFRAME HAS BARELY ANY RUST ON IT AT ALL. SEARCHING THROUGH THE INTERNET I FOUND MANY REPORTS AND STORIES FROM OWNERS OF THE 1998 TO 2002 HONDA ACCORDS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. A WALK THROUGH A LOCAL JUNKYARD YESTERDAY PROVIDES FURTHER PROOF THAT THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND HONDA NEEDS TO RECTIFY THIS ISSUE PROMPTLY.
