Honda is recalling nearly 99,000 vehicles in the U.S. over a defect that could cause airbags to deploy unexpectedly during a crash.<\/p>\n

The recall covers an estimated 98,892 Honda and Acura vehicles from model years 2016 through 2026, according to a May 21 notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).<\/p>\n

Federal safety regulators said a front passenger seat weight sensor may crack and short-circuit over time. If the defect occurs during a crash, it could cause the vehicle’s airbags to deploy unintentionally.<\/p>\n

“Airbags that deploy unintentionally during a crash increase the risk of injury,” NHTSA said.<\/p>\n

Affected vehicles include select Acura MDX, RDX and TLX models, along with Honda Accord, Civic, CR-V, Odyssey, Pilot, Passport, Ridgeline, HR-V, Fit, Insight and Accord Hybrid vehicles.<\/p>\n

Honda dealers will replace the front passenger seat weight sensors at no cost to owners.<\/p>\n

The latest action comes just weeks after Honda recalled more than 440,000 Odyssey minivans over an air bag-related issue that regulators said could cause side curtain airbags to deploy unexpectedly.<\/p>\n

In a notice dated April 9, the automaker warned that a software programming flaw could trigger the side airbags to deploy unexpectedly from relatively minor road impacts, including “driving over potholes, speed bumps, or road debris.”<\/p>\n

Honda could not immediately be reached by FOX Business for comment.<\/p>\n
