The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. while seated in the driver's seat, the contact observed that the padding was collapsed inside the seat by the side air bag. The vehicle was taken to O'daniel Honda (located on 123 beverly dr, omaha, ne 68114) where it was diagnosed that the padding needed to be replaced. The vehicle was temporarily repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The failure mileage and VIN were unknown. Updated 09/15/17 the consumer stated the leather on the back part of the driver's seat was collapsed on the left side by the door. The dealer repositioned the padding which was a temporary fix. The consumer inquired if the failure would affect the airbag. Updated 12/11/2017

Front passenger airbag occupancy sensor does not detect an adult that is 5' 3" tall and weighs 100 lbs. The vehicle keeps the passenger airbag deactivated.

Driver's seat has collapsed on left side right below the air bag tag. Took it back to dealer. They know about the problem. They did a quick fix, but it did not work. Does this problem affect the function of the air bag? I bought the vehicle 4/28/17, and the seat has been messed up for about two months.

problem #3

Feb 022017

CR-V

  • 300 miles
The indicator light for the passenger air bag ('air bag off') does not operate consistently. A 112 pound passenger regularly rides in the front passenger seat of this vehicle. Sometimes when this passenger is present, the passenger airbag indicator light ('airbag off') illuminates and stays illuminated during travel. At other times it does not illuminate at all during trips when the passenger is present. The indicator light is more likely to remain on when the vehicle is started before the passenger enters the car. This problem has persisted for 4 months.

problem #2

CR-V

  • 2,000 miles
My mother and I traveled to visit my daughter that lives 3 1/2 hours away. My mother sat in the passenger seat for the 7 hour trip up and back. The amber or yellow light on the dash "passenger airbag off" was lighted the entire time that my mother was sitting in the passenger seat. Admitted she only weighs 100 lbs and is 86 years old, but she is clearly an adult and should be protected by an airbag deploying in case of a serious crash. The airbag deploying in a crash could literally mean the difference between life and death.

problem #1

CR-V

  • 1,600 miles
Passenger side airbag indicator does not turn off, therefore the airbag does not activate, when a person weighing significantly more (100lbs) than the stated threshold of 65lbs as described in the owner's manual. This is a significant safety concern since the passenger is not protected by the airbag. Honda dealer claims the weight sensor is correctly calibrated and working properly according to Honda. The concern is that this tolerance of more than 35lbs is way too high and the airbag needs to activate much closer to the stated threshold of 65lbs.
