This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The car was traveling South bound on interstate 680. Upon approach to the mission blvd exit there was wood pieces / debris in the number 3 & 4 lanes. The car rolled over one or more of the aforementioned wood pieces and sustained a flat tire on the front passenger side. At that moment both front airbags deployed. The driver was hit by the airbag. The impact was severe enough to push her into the drivers side door causing it to become misaligned.
I was driving on I-95 N in northern va around mile marker 145, around noon, when all of a sudden both driver and passenger airbags deployed. I was on flat smooth surface road and did not strike any obstacles in the roadway. After regaining control of the vehicle, I pulled it to the side of the road avoiding contact with other vehicles. I have a claim filed with North american Honda(vehicle-1995 Honda Del sol vtec). The dealership(pohanka Honda fredericksburg, va), at first, said that they "did not have an opinion on what transpired", because "this matter is too legally sensitive." After putting pressure on North american Honda, they had the dealership put the car on a lift finally, and took pictures to email their corporate office in California. Their corporate office then called me and stated that they felt it was reasonable that the airbags deployed because they found scratches on oil pan and exhaust system. These scratches are obviously old and have heavy rust, and they definitely shouldn't have caused the airbags to have deployed. Honda has said that to repair the vehicle they would need to replace the airbag control module in addition to both airbags, which seems odd to me if they wont tell me what's wrong with the vehicle.
