Our Georgia product liability injury law firm monitors vehicle defect announcements. These recalls are important to prove defects leading to injuries or death. The period between the announcement and consumers receiving a notice in the mail is also a dangerous time if you have one of these vehicles.
American Honda Motor Co., Inc. issued a press release this week adding over 800,000 additional cars to a recall list for airbag inflator defects. The defect could result in injury or fatality according to the Honda statement. 2001 and 2002 Accord and Civic, 2002 Odyssey; 2002 and 2003 CR-V, selected 2002 and 2003 Acura 3.2 TL and 2003 Acura 3.2 CL vehicles are included.
Honda knows of several serious incidents related to the recall. Notices will not be mailed until late May. If you own one of these vehicles take the car to a dealer immediately for an inspection.
Honda owners can also contact www.recalls.honda.com or call (800) 999-1009 and select option 4; Acura owners go to the web at www.recalls.acura.com or call (800) 382-2238 and select option 4. Do not delay. We would much rather have you healthy that as a client.
