Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1-800-255-6727.

MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE LEFT TURN LANE WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN. I WENT AND DIDNT REALIZE THE FAR RIGHT LANE WAS FOR PARKING ONLY ON A 1 WAY STREET LEFT HEADED EAST IT WAS A 1 WAY WITH 2 LANES MOVING FORWARD A 1 LANE NEXT TO THE CURB WHERE VEHICLES PARK IN FRONT OF THERE RESIDENTS. I SLAMMED INTO THE BACK OF THE PARKED WHITE CHEVY TRUCK. MY VEHICLE CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP FORCING MY BODY FORWARD TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. MY SEATBELT ONLY RESTRAINED MY BODY SO FAR SO I USED MY FOOT TO APPLY THE BRAKE. MY CARS PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DID DEPLOY BUT THE DRIVERS SIDE DID NOT. MY VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE TOWED BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DRIVABLE. I THEN LATER HAD A FRIEND DRIVE ME TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM. I DIDNT WANT TO GO BY AMBULANCE DUE TO PANDEMIC IN PLACE. ABOUT 2 TO 3 WEEKS LATER I RECIEVED THE RECALL LETTER IN MY MAILBOX. SINCE THE ACCIDENT I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO WORK OR EVEN DAILY FUNCTIONS. I HAVE A CRUSHED HEEL AND UNABLE TO WALK. SEVER PAIN AND SWELLING. MY LIFE HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED.
MY WIFE HAD PURCHASED THIS CAR NEW IN THE 1999 MODEL YEAR AND I REALIZE HONDA IS PROBABLY EXPECTING THESE CARS TO BE PAST THEIR USEFUL LIFE. UNFORTUNATELY UNAWARE CONSUMERS AND YOUNG ADULTS WILL BUY THESE EXPECTING TO PILE MILES ON THESE WHICH HONDA IS KNOWN FOR. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SUBFRAME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHICH SUPPORTS THE ENGINE AND SUSPENSION COMPONENTS. I PERSONALLY WATCHED THIS PARTICULAR PART OF THE CAR RAPIDLY RUST AND DETERIORATE EVEN AFTER COATING IT WITH SOME RUST INHIBITORS. THE PROBLEM AS I UNDERSTAND IT IS THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS DRIPPING CONDENSATION ON THE FRAME CAUSING THE STRUCTURE TO ROT. I REALIZED IT WAS ALMOST ROTTED THROUGH WHEN I WAS PUTTING ON A NEW PASSENGER SIDE TIRE ON, SO NOT WANTING TO PUT MONEY IN THAT KIND OF REPAIR, I GUESS MY CAR IS DONE. MY POINT IS BUYER BE WARE, HONDA HAD TO KNOW AND I STILL SEE THESE 1999 TO 2002 MODELS RUNNING AROUND.
