AIR BAGS:SENSOR:OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION:FRONT PASSENGER
Air bags that deploy unintentionally during a crash increase the risk of injury.
6 safety recall campaigns, 759 owner complaints filed with NHTSA.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Air bags that deploy unintentionally during a crash increase the risk of injury.
Fuel pump failure can cause an engine stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the information is missing or improper, it can increase the risk of injury or a crash.
The unintended steering input reduces vehicle maneuverability and increases the risk of a crash.
If the seat-mounted air bags cannot not deploy correctly in the event of a crash, there would be an increased risk of injury.
The improper heat treatment can result in the halfshaft breaking, preventing the engine from moving the vehicle, and can allow a possible roll away situation if the parking brake is not engaged. This can increase the risk of a crash.
Two 2017 HONDA CIVICs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
