An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger vehicle (Honda N-VAN) - Repair. Airbag system (side curtain airbag) defect. ■ Defective component: Airbag system (side curtain airbag). ■ Condition and cause of the structure, equipment or performance deemed noncompliant with standards: In some side curtain airbags, the crimping load setting for the clamp ring securing the inflator (inflation device) to the airbag was inappropriate. Excessive crimping force was applied, leaving the clamp ring with insufficient strength. Consequently, if the side curtain airbag deploys when the passenger compartment is hot, increased pressure inside the inflator may break the clamp ring, preventing proper airbag deployment and potentially failing to provide the required occupant protection. Published 2024-12-13.
What to do now
Recall notification number: 5597. ■ Corrective measures: ① Replace the left and right side curtain airbags in all vehicles with improved parts. ② Replace the right side curtain airbag in all vehicles with an improved part.
