Filing in context

The Airbag is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 225 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 22 Honda notifications from 2005 in this archive. For scale, 1,188 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 year and 6 months.

Issue

On vehicles equipped with side curtain airbags, the airbag control unit software is incorrect. When a qualifying side-impact force is detected, the airbag deployment signal may be momentarily delayed. As a result, the side curtain airbags may not perform as intended.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, the airbag control unit is replaced with a corrected part.
