Honda Recalls Odysseys, Pilots Submitted: 01/20/2013
MADISON - Another recall is out for Honda Odyssey minivans and Pilot SUVs.

Honda says the driver's-side airbags in 748,000 of those vehicles may have been assembled without certain parts that secure the airbag's plastic cover. If those parts are missing, the airbag may not deploy properly.

The models involved are 2009 to 2013 Pilots, and 2011 to 2013 Odysseys.

Just last month, Honda recalled 800,000 of the same two model vehicles because the ignition key could be removed when the vehicle wasn't in park.
