Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“We were driving, and the passenger side and seat airbags deployed but did not inflate. The passenger seatbelt is now permanently locked so you can't even have anyone in the passenger seat. There was no collision and nothing in the road that we could have hit. We had a local Honda service manager take a look at it briefly and he said he couldn't see why they deployed.”
NHTSA complaint #11280815, filed 2019-11, 95,000 miles“Takata recall-my driver & passenger side airbags were replaced due to recall. As I was driving about 1-2 weeks ago, my airbag light came on for no reason. I had nobody in the car with me and the dash stated my passenger airbag was off. I assume it stays off unless I have a passenger weighing x amount of lbs. Concerned.”
NHTSA complaint #11098303, filed 2018-05, 134,000 miles“I was driving about 40 miles per hour when I lost control of my steering wheel, I couldn't control it, the car slid to the oncoming traffic where I hit a oncoming car, my air bag deployed I had a seat belt, which the both did more damage to my chest then the accident itself. My car is considered totalled.”
NHTSA complaint #11121205, filed 2018-08, 40 miles“Takata recall; (unknown)while starting my vehicle on yesterday I noticed my airbag symbol was illuminated on the dashboard for about 10 seconds. I started to drive and it went out 10 MPH, also the passenger side airbag illuminates as well at speeds of 65 MPH and goes out, maybe 2 months now.”
NHTSA complaint #11162426, filed 2018-12, 149,000 miles“Air bag ruptured in a accident I had. Ther were no other vechical involved. I was driving and I can't really explain what happened to make me loose control of my car and make my car roll over. I know the bag ruptured leaving me with a gush between my eyes. Which none is scared. I was in motion on a 2 way road that really didn't have that much traffic on it.”
