Four problems related to front driver side air bag inflator have been reported for the 2010 Honda Insight. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The inflators were replaced 3/24/16 and 7/29/16. On 7/5/17 my son was hit by a man running a red light. To make a long story short, my son suffered numerous injuries including being knocked out by the airbag and continues to suffer from the concussion - I know the old airbag/inflator would have been worse. Also, the seatbelt bruised his chest and the doctor thought he had heart damage. Echocardiogram showed everything was fine - just bad chest bruise. My concern is that even though the inflators were replaced they, the airbag/inflator, still caused damage. 14 months later and still having issues with tbi. My son is 5'11" and sits as far back as possible when he drove the car. I'm sending 2 pictures so you can see that the car was destroyed. This is just an fyi.
