• Recall 2019323 [Canada]: Airbag
  Issue: on certain vehicles, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity and temperature, combined with high temperature cycling, may eventually degrade the propellant contained in the airbag. This could cause the airbag to deploy with more force than normal. If the airbag inflator ruptures, fragments could be propelled toward vehicle occupants or cause damage to the airbag assembly, preventing its proper function. Note: this is a new recall campaign that includes vehicles that had an airbag inflator replaced under a previous recall or had a replacement airbag installed. The previous recall provided an interim (short-term) repair. Interim repair parts must be replaced with the final repair parts provided in this recall. Safety risk: if the vehicle is involved in a crash requiring an airbag deployment, the airbag inflator could rupture and create a risk of injury. Corrective action: owners will be notified by mail and instructed to take their vehicle to a dealer to replace the driver and/or passenger-front airbag inflator. Note: the canadian climate results in the propellant degrading slowly. This recall is being conducted as a precaution to address future risk. It is expected that all airbag inflators will be replaced before their function would be affected.

Increased pressure may cause the inflator to rupture, which could allow fragments to be propelled toward vehicle occupants, increasing the risk of injury. This could also damage the airbag module, which could prevent proper deployment. Failure of the passenger airbag to fully deploy during a crash (where deployment is warranted) could increase the risk of personal injury to the seat occupant. Correction: dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the passenger airbag inflator. Note: honda canada has created a special airbag inflator hotline for immediate assistance. For more information, please contact: for honda owners: 1-877-445-7754 for acura owners: 1-877-445-9844

• Desiccated air bag inflator rupture investigation # EA21002

  From 2000 through 2017, takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("psan") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004l. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 blomquist report at www.Nhtsa.Gov/sites/nhtsa.Gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.Pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in us vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004l that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All takata inflators produced with propellant 2004l contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated psan inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- takata (now known as tk global), the independent testing coalition, and exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of takata desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004l (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004l is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l.The office of defects investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated psan frontal inflators manufactured by takata. This investigation will require extensive information on takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated psan inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.Gov/recalls?Nhtsaid=ea21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede ea15-001, which remains open.

• Air bag inflator rupture investigation # EA15001

  The office of defects investigation (odi) opened pe14-016 in june 2014 based on six inflator rupture incidents involving consumer owned vehicles produced by five vehicle manufacturers.All six vehicles were operated in florida or puerto rico at the time of the rupture and for the majority of their service life, and were equipped with inflators produced by takata, a tier-one supplier of automotive air bag systems.During the course of pe14-016, odi determined that five additional vehicle manufacturers used inflators of a similar design and vintage also supplied by takata. No evidence of field failures was found in vehicles produced by these five additional manufacturers.Nonetheless, at odis insistence, all 10 vehicle manufacturers initiated a regional recall within approximately two weeks of the opening of the investigation.The regions recalled initially included florida, puerto rico, hawaii, and the u.S. Virgin islands, areas with high absolute humidity and climatic conditions believed to be a significant factor in the inflator ruptures.As part of the recall actions, inflators removed from remedied vehicles are to be returned to takata for testing.Takatas initial test results on passenger inflators from remedied vehicles indicated a much higher than anticipated rupture frequency for inflators returned from florida.Accordingly odi requested all 10 manufacturers expand the regional recalls for passenger inflators to include other geographic areas where high absolute humidity conditions exist, including the gulf states and other coastal areas.Takatas testing of the passenger inflators to date continues to indicate this geographic area as having the highest risk, with no ruptures occurring from inflators returned from outside the expanded recall regions.During pe14-016 four additional passenger inflator field events occurred, all in vehicles from the same expanded geographic region.Also during pe14-016 four additional driver inflator field events occurred including two in vehicles from regions not known for high absolute humidity, specifically california and north carolina.Accordingly, odi requested all five of the affected vehicle manufacturers currently using the subject takata driver inflators expand to nationwide recalls.Significantly, neither of the affected vehicle manufacturers or takata provided any explanation to account for these two driver air bag inflator ruptures outside the area of high absolute humidity.Takata testing of returned driver inflators indicates a lower rupture frequency as compared to passenger inflator testing.All test ruptures reported by takata to date have occurred on inflators returned from high absolute humidity areas.The investigation now includes all manufacturers and vehicles known to be affected at this time.Odis investigation will focus on, among other things, root cause analysis, other potential defect consequences, identification of affected vehicles scope, and adequacy of the remedy.The five odi reports cited above can be reviewed online at http://www-odi.Nhtsa.Dot.Gov/owners/searchnhtsaid under the following identification numbers: 10537899, 10568848, 10585224, 10605877, 10651492

• Rupturing drivers air bag inflators investigation # RQ09004

  This rq investigation was opened to collect and analyze additional information to better evaluate the scope and timeliness of hondas two safety recalls addressing rupturing of the drivers side air bag inflators (08v-593 and 09v-259).In an earlier response to rmds request for information, honda indicated that the second recall (09v-259), essentially an expansion of the first (08v-593), was necessary since later information informed that the source of the defect was different than originally postulated, and so the scope of the vehicles affected changed. Honda indicated that it had relied on its supplier of the air bag inflators, takata, inc. (takata), in studying the possible sources of the inflator ruptures and identifying the recall populations.Accordingly, rmd issued a request forinformation to takata on november 20, 2009, and takata provided a partial response on december 23, 2009.Takata then provided its complete response on february 19, 2010.Takata informed odi that, after analysis of several ruptured inflators, takata and honda initially attributed the defect to handling of the propellant during inflator assembly that could have yielded increased moisture levels that, when coupled with thermal cycling in automobiles over time, could lead to reduced propellant density and overly aggressive combustion during air bag deployment.However, it discovered upon review of inflators returned from the 08v-593 recall campaign, some of which fell outside the manufacturing range when takata suspected the propellant was exposed to elevated moisture, that the source of the defect was more likely due to problems with a specific compression press (stokes press) used to form the inflators propellant.Specifically, the propellant tablets produced by the press were found to be less dense, and therefore more susceptible to overly aggressive combustion during air bag deployment.Takata identified the manufacturing time frame over which the tablets were shown to have less dense properties as the end of calendar year 2000. Takata informed honda of its discovery on or about june 12, 2009.Honda made its defect decision and then notified nhtsa of it on june 30, 2009.Honda then supplemented its filing with an identification of the specific vehicles to be included in the campaign, as well as identifying additional models to be included, on july 29, 2009.As with the 08v-593 campaign, takata examined inflators returned from the 09v-259 campaign, and some of which were manufactured outside of the range when the stokes press was found to have produced less dense propellant (beyond the end of february 2001).It provided those findings to honda and honda decided to expand safety recall 09v-259 to include all vehicles with inflators containing propellant manufactured using the stokes press.Honda notified nhtsa of its decision on february 9, 2010.Based upon all available information, there is insufficient information to suggest that honda failed to make timely defect decisions on information it was provided.Also, given that all inflators with propellant manufactured using the stokes press have been recalled, there are no additional vehicles to be investigated and campaigned.Accordingly, this rq is closed.

I'm not even sure if this is the right channel but here goes... I've called to get my recall fixed and nobody ever wants to call me back to schedule an appointment even. I tried the number where you text the recall coordinators? But they replied the next day and only waited 10 mins. Pohanka honda of salisbury doesn't seem to want to schedule this recall. I tried with them a few years ago but again no response. What do i have to do to get the common courtesy of a callback or something as simple as making an appointment? This is why i quit attempting to get this recall fixed some years ago, because it was never a priority apparently. Now that i'm attempting to sell the vehicle i have to continue to be ignored by the service department at pohanka, so that i can move on. I'm very displeased with being placated about "parts availability" or "just wait for a call back" when waiting for a courteous reply is all i need. Bottom line: i can't get my airbag recall done at pohanka honda of salisbury if they won't ever reach back out to me. I attempted a followup question toaday and was given a runaround phone number. Why would i give you all of my vin and recall numbers and then hear nothing again? I'm extraordinarily upset about being relegated to the back of the list every time. I strongly feel that nobody i've spoken to gives a [xxx] about getting this done because i'm the only one trying to make it happen. Hoping this actually merits a response because i'm about to wash my hands of this whole recall due to the abysmal handling of such a simple task. Then it can be a safety issue for the new owner because these dealers don't really want to do any "free" work it seems. Disappointed, upset and would rather drive a deathtrap than deal with any of these useless representatives.

My car smells strongly of gas. Hunting for the cause i noticed gas coming from a hole under the car about right where the fuel pump is located in the back seat. After removing the back seat i noticed the fuel pump is pretty much sitting in a puddle of gasoline. You can see a slow movement of gasoline coming off the top of the fuel pump. This is a safety concern especially being that we are smokers.
