Honda's 2012 Odyssey was honored with both a 2012 Vehicle Satisfaction Award from AutoPacific, as well as a 2012 Top Scoring Car Award from TotalCarScore.com

Adding to Honda’s airbag woes, the company has announced a new recall today for 2009-2013 Pilot SUVs and 2011-2013 Odyssey minivans.

The recall affects 748,481 vehicles in total, and it pertains to the faulty operation of the airbags. One or more of the rivets that attach the airbag module to the airbag may have been missed during installation, which will alter the performance of the driver’s airbag in a collision.

Honda has experienced problems with its airbags for quite some time now, already issuing recalls for millions of vehicles for other airbags faults.
