Honda Minivans, SUV Recalled Over Possible Faulty Airbags

Honda will recall nearly 400,000 minivans and SUVs sold in North America for airbags that deploy inadvertently by an electrical interference even when there is no vehicle crash, NBC News reported. The recall includes 318,000 Odyssey minivans sold in the U.S., along with 56,000 Acura MDX sport-utility vehicles for the 2003 and 2004 model-years. Another 23,300 of the Odyssey models and 4,800 of the Acura sport-utilities sold in Canada also will be covered. Additional recalls will cover vehicles sold in Japan and Australia. Honda plans to notify owners in the coming weeks and says it will correct the problem by installing an electrical noise filter in the Supplemental Restraint System to block interference. Repairs will be made free of charge.
