The U.S. government and Honda issued a ‘Do Not Drive’ warning on Friday for about 8,200 older Acura and Honda vehicles that still have Takata Alpha airbag inflators, urging car owners to have them immediately repaired because the defective airbags make it dangerous to drive the vehicles they are installed in.
The urgent warning relates to various 2001-2003 models with Alpha airbags, including Honda Accord, Civic CR-V, and Odyssey, Pilot, and Acura 3.2CL and 3.2 TL vehicles.
