Honda Motor CO Legend: The Absorption Of Moisture Into The Driver's Air Bag Propellant Could Lead To Slow Deployment Or Inflator Rupture

Recall Summary Honda is recalling approximately 381,915 vehicles across multiple models (including Legend, Civic, Accord, CR-V, and others) sold in the United Kingdom because moisture can be absorbed into the driver's airbag propellant, potentially causing the airbag to deploy slowly or the inflator to rupture. The remedy involves replacing either the airbag inflator or the complete airbag assembly, though Honda is still developing and producing the replacement parts needed.
