2010 HONDA CR-V Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2010 Honda CR-V has 5 recalls, the most serious involving the passenger-side airbag inflator, which can explode and send metal fragments into the cabin, causing serious injury or death. Two other airbag concerns round out the restraint system issues. Long-term exposure to heat and humidity can degrade the passenger airbag propellant, causing it to deploy with more force than intended. Separately, vehicles that already had the passenger airbag replaced may have received an inflator assembled with the wrong wire harness, meaning the airbag may not deploy at all in a crash. On the structural side, the rear trailing arm can corrode and detach from the underbody, causing loss of vehicle control. There is also an electrical concern: a connector pin in the engine wiring harness may have been damaged during assembly, which can disrupt power to the ignition coils and cause the engine to stall intermittently.
