New Delhi: Indian subsidiary of Japanese car maker Honda Motor Co. on Wednesday said that it has recllaed 1338 units of the Accord sedan and sports utility vehicle CR-V.

Honda Cars India said that “it would carry out preventive replacement of passenger side air bag inflator of 1,085 units of Honda Accord and 252 units of Honda CR-V manufactured in Year 2003 & 1 unit of CR-V manufactured in Year 2002 as part of Honda’s global recall regarding the potential defect related to passenger air bag announced in June 2014".

“There has been no reporting of any incident related to this part in India," the company said in a statement.

In case of certain vehicles, due to a problem during the propellant forming process, the casing of the inflator may get damaged when the airbag deploys in an accident or other situation potentially causing injury to vehicle occupants.

The replacement would be carried out free of cost at Honda Cars India dealerships across India in a phased manner and the company will communicate with customers directly.
