2005 Honda CR-V recall: airbag

⚠️ 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.

💥 The risk

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.

Is the fix free? Yes. Safety recall repairs are free at any authorized dealer under federal law, including parts and labor. (Vehicles more than 15 years old when the recall was announced can be excluded, but most manufacturers still fix them.)
