On XXX at approximately 6:04 PM, the vehicle was being driven on a highway in [XXX] — after dark, during an active snowstorm, on slick roads, at approximately 40 MPH — when the front passenger-side airbag deployed spontaneously with no collision, no impact, and no warning of any kind. There were no prior warning lamps or symptoms. The deployment cracked the windshield and caused interior damage. The component is available for inspection upon request. This vehicle had the Takata recall performed in 2019. The failure is believed to be related to NHTSA Recall 19V502000 (Honda Recall Nos. F5F/Q5E), covering 2009-2015 Honda Pilots with passenger frontal airbag inflators that may explode due to propellant degradation from humidity and temperature cycling. A spontaneous deployment with no crash is consistent with this defect. The vehicle was inspected by an authorized Honda dealership. Technician findings included: blown fuses 9 and 11, diagnostic system crashing repeatedly, complete loss of SRS/ABS/gauge communication, burning smell from the airbag inflator, copious F-CAN malfunction codes, and DTC U0151. Technician concluded: "ADVISE replacing deployed passenger airbag and inflator assembly." The dealership confirmed the component needs replacement but could not determine the cause. A spontaneous airbag deployment at highway speed during a snowstorm with no crash poses extreme risk to the driver and public. This incident warrants investigation to determine whether recall remedy parts from prior Takata campaigns are continuing to fail in other vehicles.

Have a known hacker. They have shown experience on remote hacking using TimeStomping and ECM modifications. I work as an Amazon Delivery driver in Kentucky. My Hackers are my Employer and the Operations Manager. The same hacking to their company vehicles are being done to employees personal vehicles. Forced Limp Mode, Power distribution, Fake sensors malfunctions, and Alarm controls are reoccurring. My entire communications network is compromised. When I called Honda (888) 528-7876) from my Boost Mobile iPhone, the automated system did not recognize my T-Mobile Android phone number that is registered on MyHonda. The person I spoke to asked my name, Vin number, and then asked if the T-Mobile phone number is the one associated with my Honda Pilot. After I mentioned the automated system did not have that number, I was to my number popped up as a caller ID. 2 different phones on 2 different networks acting as one!?!? 05/24/2023 At 11:55 am, I travel from my work to tha gas station. I put air in a tire that seems to leak air sporadically. After about 2 mins, my pilot power systems light turns on. I have already had my battery and systems tested less the 2 months prior, but travel down hwy for 15 miles. While having battery looked at, my pilot deactivated the air-bag system. The Auto Zone employee attempted to pull check engine codes. The first 2 attempts the pilot would not read anything at all. After I explained the previous instances when this had happened before with multiple other vehicles, he was finally able to read multiple (undisplayed) codes. As I travelled to the mechanic, I received a mystery call. Did not answer, but called back on android phone. It was a fund raising auto number. My pilot is hacked and using false time stamps. I was told this was discovered before, but never addressed as a form of undetectable hacking.

OUR VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A NEAR-HEAD ON COLLISION WITH DAMAGE PRIMARILY ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE QUARTER OF THE VEHICLE. OUR VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING AT LEAST 45 MILES PER HOUR, THE EXACT SPEED IS UNKNOWN. THE DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, BUT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DID.

I TOOK MY CAR TO DEALER TO WORK ON 3 RECALL NOTICES ON DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG (NOT TAKATA RELATED SINCE IT'S NOT A TAKATA AIRBAG), PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, AND SEAT BELT. I ALSO HAD A SRS WARNING LIGHT THAT WAS ON CONSTANTLY FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS SO I HAD THE DEALER DIAGNOSE THE WARNING LIGHT. THE CODE SHOWED 11-21 (SOMETHING ABOUT OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE ON THE AIRBAG). THE DEALER SAID THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR ABOUT $1200 AND THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY TAMPERING WITH THE AIRBAG WIRING. THIS TOTALLY DID NOT MAKE SENSE SINCE I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND NOBODY TAMPERED WITH THE AIRBAG. THE LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON AFTER 5-6 YEARS SINCE I OWNED THE VEHICLE AND THE CAR WAS NEVER INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS LOOKS LIKE A POOR QUALITY AIR BAG WAS USED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS MADE AND I THINK HONDA SHOULD REPLACE THIS AIRBAG AT THEIR COST.
