Honda PH recalls 65,000 cars for airbag fault

Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) initiated a voluntary preventive measure campaign for select CR-V (2007-2011), Jazz (2006, 2009-2012), Civic (2006-2011), City (2003-2011) and Insight (2011-2012) sold in the country due to a suspected defect in the inflator of the driver side airbag.

Although there are no reported accidents or inquiries related to this concern here in the Philippines, this campaign is part of HCPI’s effort to ensure the safety of the owners of these vehicles. HCPI advises customers to contact and set an appointment with the nearest Honda car dealerships and service centers nationwide. Repair service of the affected vehicles will start on September 14, 2015. The replacement of the airbag inflator will only take about one (1) hour and will be free of charge for both parts and labor.
