Bermuda’s recall of Honda vehicles with potentially faulty airbags is about one-third done, mirroring a costly procedure under way worldwide — the biggest in auto history.

In the United States alone, more than 30 million vehicles have been recalled for airbags to be replaced. The inflators for the Takata brand airbags have been linked to eight deaths globally.

The local dealer, Auto Solutions, has posted an extensive list of years and vehicle identification numbers (VIN) in this newspaper.

Glen Smith, head of the dealership, emphasised that there had been no accidents on the Island as a result of the problem.

“We put safety first at Auto Solutions,” he said. “The Transport Control Department and insurance companies have been very helpful. These [the vehicles with faulty airbags] are the ones that are outstanding.”

The VIN is included in the TCD paperwork on the inside of the car windscreen.

According to Honda, some 1,100 suspect vehicles were shipped to Bermuda. Mr Smith believes there are “probably no more than 800” on Bermuda’s roads, as some will have been discarded in the years since.

“We have changed the airbag inflators on about 30 per cent of them, or 240 vehicles,” he said.
