Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, and Audi announce Takata recalls
i got a call from honda yesterday re the takata airbag controversy . i already had my recall done last october but apparently they're also supposed to replace the passenger side airbag mechanism too. is this a new recall order or just more of the same? may side airbags din kasi ang fd ko kaya baka mamaya piecemeal din ang replacement sa kada upuan![]()
not sure if this was posted before..
honda has a list of vehicles that are eligible for takata airbag inflator replacements...

I just received my airbag recall letter from Honda.... for a car I've sold 3 years ago. No fault to them of course.
Now, I feel heavily responsible that I should seek out who the current owner is as this is a potential safety concern. I can't have blood on my hands if something bad happens.
I'd be calling the buy & sell agent I sold the car to.
I'm calling out as well to other people who's in a similar situation.... ie. You received a letter about the airbag recall for a vehicle you no longer own. Unless you know for a fact that the car's been wrecked, it is incumbent upon you to pass on this critical message to the current owners.
Do the right thing.
To date, I haven't received any recall notice but I got both airbag inflators replaced before I sold my FD. That was one of the selling points I made to the buyer since the car was intended for a newbie driver.
On a related topic, most automakers replaced like for like inflators - meaning that the replacement inflators were just as likely to fragment a couple of years down the line. This was deemed acceptable in the near term since the risk of rupture was directly correlated to age and exposure to heat and humidity. For most first owners, they would have to replace the inflators on affected vehicles only once. The risk is when the vehicle remains in service for a long time, either because of the original owner's preference of running cars to the ground or because the vehicle has changed hands. There is a real requirement that these inflators would need to be replaced again after a couple of years. The original owner may have been led to think, as most of us probably have, that the replacement inflators are good for the remaining life of the car. While the second (or succeeding) owner may not even know whether the inflators had been replaced, and if they had been replaced - when. This is particularly true for countries like ours wherein cars have no mandatory scrapping age.
I know Honda replaced a different brand inflator on my FD since I checked the labels and part numbers but I have subsequently read that many other manufacturers were replacing like for like inflators during the height of the recall.
The original Takata inflator is to the left - note the extensive rust formation in the metal casing. This was for a 10-year old car that had covered parking day and night.
