Honda has ordered to recall of over 750,000 of its cars in the US after identifying an airbag defect that could possibly lead to road accidents.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced on Tuesday that the Japanese auto manufacturer detected faulty seat weight sensors on the front passenger seat, thus requiring a replacement.

According to the NHTSA, the flawed airbags may deploy "unintentionally during a crash" and increase the chances of injury.

Honda claimed that the default was caused by a natural disaster that struck one of its subcontractors during manufacturing.

Among the cars being recalled were its Pilot, Accord, and Civic models manufactured from 2020 to 2022, and several Honda CR-V and Passport cars made between 2020 and 2021.

Not the First Time for Honda Recalls

Honda has yet to release information on how much the car recalls will impact its businesses in the US.

As of writing, there is also no indication yet that the car recalls will affect Honda's operations in North America, especially with its plans to build EV production in Canada.

Honda has previously recalled 4.5 million vehicles last December over concerns of fuel pump failure. More than 2.54 million vehicles returned were from the US.
