Honda Airbag Defects
NHTSA Investigates Timing of Honda Airbag Recalls
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has requested an explanation from Honda Motor Company and Takata Corporation as to why the automaker did not include Honda vehicles from a second recall in an earlier recall eight months previously. Takata Corp. is the manufacturer of airbags for Honda vehicles. The NHTSA “requires additional information from Honda and Takata to more fully evaluate the scope and timeliness” of a Honda recall for the same defective airbags that were the reason for the previous recall of Honda vehicles.
