Honda Cars Philippines is recalling select units of the 2012-2013 Jazz, the 2012-2014 City and the 2011 CR-V for a "suspected defect in the driver-side airbag inflator."
According to a press statement sent by HCPI, no accidents and injuries related to this concern have been reported in the Philippines. In fact, the "suspected" defect is not confirmed, but the company wants to make sure that no incident related to the airbag inflator will occur.
If you own any of the 19,624 affected vehicles (see table below), contact any authorized Honda dealership for an appointment, or e-mail update@hondaphil.com. Taking only about an hour of your time, replacement and repair of the driver's airbag inflator will be free of charge (yes, for both parts and labor).
Last December, Honda also issued a preventive measure campaign for 2,431 units of the 2014 City and the 2015 Jazz because of ECU problems.
