Honda is recalling certain model year 2003-2004 Honda odyssey vehicles manufactured February 13, 2002, to August 13, 2004, and 2003 Acura mdx vehicles manufactured February 21, 2002, to September 23, 2003. Due to electrical noise, a component in the air bag control module may fail, causing the front air bags, side air bags, and/or seatbelt pretensioners to deploy inadvertently while the vehicle is being operated.
Honda dealers will replace the supplemental restraint system electronic control unit (srs ecu). The recall began on February 22, 2016. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-800-999-1009. Honda's number for this recall is jn6 (odyssey), and jn7 (mdx). Note: this recall supersedes recall 13v-412. Vehicles that had a noise filter installed as the remedy for that campaign need to have the srs ecu replaced under this campaign.
Owners may also contact the national highway traffic safety administration vehicle safety hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (tty 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
