Airbags reportsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

OUR SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR WHEN THE SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. HE WAS NOT IN A CAR ACCIDENT NOR DID HE HIT ANYTHING. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DAMAGE TO THE OUTSIDE OF OUR 2014 HONDA MINIVAN. THANKFULLY, OUR SON KEPT CALM, PULLED THE CAR OVER AND CALLED US. NOW HONDA SAYS IT'S AN INSURANCE PROBLEM AND WILL NOT PAY TO FREELANCE THE AIRBAG AND OUR INSURANCE COMPANY SAYS IT'S A MECHANICAL PROBLEM AND HONDA SHOULD PAY.

WHILE DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT GOING NO MORE THAN 10 MILES PER HOUR, I HIT A CONCRETE BLOCK WITH THE FRONT LEFT SIDE OF MY CAR IN FRONT OF THE WHEEL. IT WAS IN A BLIND SPOT. MY 9 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER, WHO WEIGHS 62 POUNDS, WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ( WHICH WAS NOT ALL THE WAY FOWARD. THE SEAT WAS ABOUT HALF WAY BACK). BOTH OF OUR AIR BAGS DEPLOYED AND ONLY MY SEATBELT LOCKED. HER AIRBAG SHOULD NOT HAVE DEPLOYED AND HER SEATBELT SHOULD HAVE LOCKED.
