This page combines three types of NHTSA data: recall campaigns (official manufacturer or government actions), owner complaints (unverified consumer reports), and crash test ratings (where available). A vehicle with many complaints is not necessarily less reliable — complaint volume correlates with sales volume and vehicle age. Recalls indicate identified defects, not overall quality. To compare this model year with others, use the year navigation in the sidebar or return to the model overview page.
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2001-2002 Acura 3.2CL, 2000-2003 Acura 3.5RL, 2000-2001 Acura 3.2TL, Honda CR-V and Honda Odyssey, 2001-2002 Acura MDX and 2000 Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Coupe, and Civic Sedan vehicles. These vehicles may have received a replacement driver frontal air bag module as part of a vehicle repair. Due to a manufacturing issue, the replacement NADI inflator may absorb moisture, causing the inflator to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Remedy Status
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the air bags in the vehicles, replacing the driver frontal air bag inflator with an inflator of a different design, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138.

HONDA CR-V 2000 - I repeatedly contacted dealer in 2020 to get airbag replaced due to recall, but they said they didn't have replacement parts. 11/1/24 I brought car to Honda El Cerrito for airbag replacement due to recall. SRS light was on after their repair, but I didn't know that was a problem. I brought the car to another mechanic a couple weeks later for visual inspection prior to sale, and he said SRS light shouldn't be on & go back to dealer. It took awhile to get another appointment due to holidays. About 1/3/25, dealer looked at car again and said it had a faulty airbag inflator (in the airbag they replaced). It took 8 days for them to approve replacing their own faulty inflator. Meanwhile I couldn't drive it. They replaced the airbag, but then informed me the cable reel was broken and not covered under recall warranty. However, nothing was wrong with car prior to bringing it to El Cerrito Honda, other than needing a replacement airbag due to recall. I'm not aware of SRS light being on prior to visiting EC Honda / airbag replacement the first time. Honda El Cerrito is requiring me to pay $650 out of pocket to complete repairs, since cable reel is not covered. However, my understanding now is that it is common practice to replace the cable reel along with airbag, due to the fact cable reel sometimes breaks during replacing airbag, and it is a sensitive necessary part for SRS function. Honda Corporation says cable reel is not included in the recall / warranty, so this is an out-of-pocket expense to me / consumers. I believe Honda El Cerrito either damaged the cable reel or is requiring me to replace it bc it's common practice with airbag replacement. However they are simply putting the cost & responsibility on me due to age & miles of car. I believe this part (cable reel) should be included in Honda's warranty if it is common practice to replace it along with airbags, since their airbags are on recall. Consumer should not have extra cost due to recall.
The driver side seatbelt does not seem to consistently stayed clicked/closed. After attaching the seatbelt, it will sometimes come loose. I have started to pull on it hard to assure that the latch has indeed made closure.

MY HONDA DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAG FOR MORE THAN 150 DAYS FROM 13 APRIL 2020, WHEN I FIRST ASKED FOR A REPAIR APPOINTMENT. HE SAYS THE "PART IS STILL UNAVAILABLE." HANDA SENT ME NHTSA RECALL 20V-027 IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL NOTICE IN MARCH 2020, INFORMING ME THAT THE DRIVER FRONT AIRBAG MODULE IS DEFECTIVE. IN THE NOTICE, HONDA ASKED FOR "PATIENCE" WHILE THEY PREPARED THE REPLACEMENT PART. BUT IT HAS BEEN MORE THAN 150 DAYS SINCE I ASKED FOR AN APPOINTMENT AND MORE THAN 180 DAYS SINCE I RECEIVED THE NOTICE. HALF A YEAR IS TOO LONG TO LEAVE ME DRIVING AROUND IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. PLEASE URGE HONDA TO GET GOING ON MAKING THE REPLACEMENT PART! THANK YOU.
