Details

What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, the occupant position detection system's side sensor is not installed in the correct position and may fail to shut off the passenger's side impact airbag if the occupant is out-of-position.

Why it matters: In the event of a crash, such an out-of position occupant may be injured by a deploying side airbag.

The fix: Dealers will replace the passenger's seat-back pad which incudes the occupant position detection system sensor. The recall began on on November 19, 2004. Owners should contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009.
