On XXX while traveling at approximately 50 mph on a smooth highway, both front airbags and the seatbelt pretensioners spontaneously deployed and exploded without warning. There was absolutely no collision, crash, road debris, or pothole impact. There were no vehichles in front or behind me. The vehicle continued smoothly for 100 yards post-blast. The vehicle's exterior and undercarriage remain completely undamaged. COMPONENTS FAILED: The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) electronic control unit failed catastrophically. The explosive blast shattered the windshield, locked the seatbelt assemblies, and inflicted immediate blast-induced acoustic trauma/severe tinnitus. The vehicle is completely disabled but safely secured on private property and is available for immediate physical inspection. MANUFACTURER AND DEALER CONFIRMATION: The manufacturer (American Honda Corporate) has officially cross-referenced this vehicle and confirmed that the safety remedy for the known SRS control unit defect (NHTSA Recall Campaign 13V-412) was previously performed on XXX, at an authorized dealer (Billy Wood Honda in [XXX]). This incident represents a catastrophic failure of a certified manufacturer safety remedy. American Honda Corporate has opened a high-priority Level 1 Product Liability Investigation under Corporate Case Number XXX. RISK AND WARNING SYMPTOMS: Driver safety was put at extreme risk due to an unprovoked explosive detonation at highway speeds, causing temporary blindness from white smoke and sudden hearing deprivation. The SRS warning lamp was confirmed illuminated immediately following the zero-impact deployment. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

The vehicle was taken to Honda to have the airbag replaced. They said that the work couldn’t be completed because the airbag had already been deployed. They said that they needed to work with corporate to determine what the costs were going to be. I kept making calls to find out what the status was but I never heard back. I did speak to a couple of reps but they never got back to me. Also, I became very frustrated because they kept telling they would get back to me and never did.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A RECALL REPAIR; HOWEVER, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WAS OCCUPIED, THE SENSOR INDICATED THAT THE AIR BAG WAS OFF. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED BY PHONE, BUT DID NOT PROVIDE THE CONTACT ANY FEEDBACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000.

TAKATA RECALL. WE RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA IN JUNE 2016 REGARDING A PROBLEM WITH OUR PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR. THE NOTICE SAID HONDA WOULD REPLACE THE AIRBAG INFLATOR FREE OF CHARGE. THE NHTSA RECALL NUMBER IS 16V-344. BEGINNING ON JULY 7, 2016, I TRIED SEVERAL TIMES TO CALL MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER (OURISMAN HONDA IN BETHESDA, MD) TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPLACEMENT. HOWEVER, THEY HAVE REFUSED TO CALL ME BACK TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. I CALLED AMERICAN HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER TO FILE A COMPLAINT AND NO ONE CALLED ME BACK. BOTH AMERICAN HONDA AND THEIR DEALER (OURISMAN HONDA) HAVE FAILED TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT I FIRST CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR A REPAIR APPOINTMENT (JULY 7, 2016).
