Car Recalls post 6

January 18, 2013 Honda recalled their 2013 Honda Odyssey. Basically, one or more rivets that attach the airbag module to the airbag cover may be missing. This is a problem because there could be consequences resulting from this problem. The absence of more than one rivet could alter the performance of the driver's airbag during deployment. This could potentially increase the risk of injury during a crash.

This is a scary thing to hear because my family just purchased this car in December 2012. I get little recalls like children's toys or cleaning supplies because of minor problems, but a car is a huge thing to recall. The amount of money and time put into making a car makes a buyer very confident that their car is working correctly. Not so true, I would be terrified if a car I just bought got recalled. 

My family immediately called the dealer to set up an appointment to check out problems with our specific model and make. Car safety is a huge deal to me and I hope that no one else has to suffer from this unfortunate recall.
