Over 100,000 Honda vehicles have been added to the ongoing recall linked to Takata airbags.

USA Today reports 104,871 vehicles join the now-5.5 million Hondas and Acuras affected by the supplier’s airbags, linked to several injuries and five fatalities thus far. The affected models are:

  • 2008 Pilot: ~89,000 recalled
  • 2004 Civic: ~11,000 recalled
  • 2001 Accord: ~5,000 recalled

The three models are part of an expansion of the 2014 recall over the same issue, which includes the 2003 Acura CL, 2006 Honda Ridgeline, and 2003-2011 Honda Element. Driver-side airbags are the focus of the expansion, with key components being replaced free of charge.

    My 2002 Accord was checked by the dealer 2 years ago. I had gotten a letter from Honda. They determined at that time that mine wasn't one of the ones affected. I got a recall letter on Monday. I was in their shop Tuesday morning. I got the only module they had in stock. The service writer told me others would be waiting about 2 months because the parts were on national back order.
