Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Occupants

NHTSA identifies two Air Bags recalls for the 2012 Honda CR-Z. In one, moisture may enter the dual-stage driver frontal air bag inflator over time and cause it to rupture. In the other, long-term exposure to high absolute humidity may degrade propellant and cause the inflator to explode. A deployment could send metal fragments or sharp pieces toward the driver or other occupants, creating a risk of serious injury or death. Waiting leaves a potential safety concern unresolved during every drive. A free VIN check is a simple, important step, even if the vehicle has never displayed a warning or you believe a previous owner addressed the issue.
