Recall Service & Dealership Highlights

Protect Occupants From Air Bag Risks

NHTSA recall information identifies two air bag recalls for the 2013 Honda Fit EV. One passenger frontal air bag inflator may explode and propel sharp metal fragments toward occupants. The other involves a driver frontal air bag inflator that may experience moisture intrusion and rupture when deployment is needed. In either situation, metal fragments could cause serious injury or death. These are not routine service concerns, and waiting may leave a known safety risk unresolved.
