Re: Honda Accord Recall
 

Here it is, straight from the horses mouth:
Driver's Airbag Protector Kit 2004-05 Accord Sedan (L4)

AFFECTED VEHICLES

.. Accord Sedan (L4): 2004 - ALL

.. Accord Sedan (L4): 2005 - From VIN 1HGCM5.5A000005 thru 1HGCM5.5A023044

From VIN JHMCM5.5C000001 thru JHMCM5.5C005196

From VIN 3HGCM5.5G700001 thru 3HGCM5.5G700722

In NHTSA R&D testing that subjects vehicles to conditions more severe than
current crash-test standards, a 2004 Accord experienced a tear in the
driver's airbag during deployment. Even though the Accord complies with all
current requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No.208,
"Occupant Crash Protection," Honda is conducting a recall to resolve NHTSA's
concerns and minimize any potential risk to motor vehicle safety.
