On 12/31/2022 When I started my 2016 Honda CRV EX the Passanger Airbag warning light came on, and stayed on while the car was running. This "Passanger Airbag" has never come on prior to this, and the owners manual says that if this light comes on- there is a possible problem with the Airbag. I will be following up with my dealer for a fix to this possible safety problem. Is this something Honda should cover, under the manufacturer warranty? Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
2016 Honda CR-V airbags complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 32 of 32, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Started the car in the parking lot. The engine was idling a bit rough. Put the car in drive. Suddenly the engine roared and accelerated. Tried to apply the brake. It did not work. Fortunately did not hit any other cars in the parking lot. The car jumped over the curb at the edge of the parking lot, went into a ditch and hit a tree. Came to a stop. The airbag was activated. The engine was still running at high RPM. Fortunately this malfunction happened in a parking lot and not on a busy city road !!!!! This bizarre incident points to potential malfunction of the computer controls. Forensic investigation is needed to rule out this possibility.
Pulled the car out of the parking lot and shifted the gear to drive. Even before I pressed the gas pedal, the engine roared and the car sped out of control. The brake failed. Fortunately was able to avoid other parked cars and the car came to a stop in a ditch at the edge of the parking lot. The car may have traveled about 100 yds before coming to stop. The airbag was deployed and the damage to the front of the car may be extensive. Reporting this failure to the federal safety agency in case there are other similar events happening with the 2016 honda cr-v model.

Tamara recall... On may 26, 2019 we were traveling down from our mountain home in sequoia mountains above porterville. It was starting to snow at 4 pm. Going between 10 and 15 MPH, rounding a curve, in low gear the car lost traction went down a 200 foot embankment. Smashed head on more on the passenger side, into a large boulder the car flipped on its driver side and landed in a creek. The front airbags did not deploy, side airbags did however. My wife and I suffered injuries she suffered a fractured sternum, I suffered a lower fracture in my vertebrae. From the impact of the car I would have thought at least the driver side front airbag would have deployed, it did not, and if they had I'm not sure my wife would have suffered the injuries she did.
