NHTSA Complaint #11424243 — 2015 HONDA CR-V

According to the dealership looking at the vehicle, the air bag had a critical failure. The vehicle is only 5 years old. While the dealership stated this was the failure of a critical component and that the vehicle should not even be driven off the lot until the air bag was fully repaired, American Honda is stating it was simply an issue with the indicator light and that the air bag was fully functional. Either the local Honda dealer or American Honda is not being honest about what happened here, but if the air bags on 5 year old Honda vehicles are failing, this seems like something that likely should be more aggressively address, particularly in light of the many air bag failures that have been in the news over the past few years.
