Honda and Acura are issuing a stop drive warning for 8200 drivers of select 2001-2003 vehicles equipped with Takata airbags. Affected vehicles include the 2001-2002 Honda Accord and Civic models; 2002 CR-V, Odyssey, and Pilot models; 2002-2003 Acura 3.2 TL models; and 2003 Acura 3.2CL models. The airbag inflators were subject to recalls by Honda between 2008 and 2011 and were never replaced by the owners of the vehicles, leaving roughly 8200 affected vehicles. The repair is free, and Honda will provide free towing and a free loaner vehicle if it is needed. NHTSA is urging vehicle owners to immediately check to see if their vehicle has an open Takata air bag recall.
