The replacement service parts from the previous recall may be defective. In the event of the passenger frontal airbag being deployed, the excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator body to rupture and metal fragments may pass through the cushion material causing injury to the occupants.
The Honda Civic MY 2001, 2003 and 2005 models that were previously recalled for the Takata driver’s frontal airbag inflator are affected by this recall.
