The headline says it all; almost 700,000 Toyotas and Hondas in Canada are being recalled for various safety issues.
Toyota Recall
The Toyota models listed below require a “filter installed in the airbag circuit to prevent an issue that could lead to them not being deploying in a crash.”[1]
The affected vehicles include
... Toyota Avalon, model years 2012-2018
... Toyota Corolla, model years 2011-2019
... Toyota Matrix, model years 2011-2014.
Honda Recall
Hondas are being hit with a double recall. The recalls relate to problems with the Takata airbags, the airbags that created the largest world-wide vehicle recall ever experienced. But there are no two new problems not related to the original Takata airbag recall. Some of the airbags have been made without proper seals, and in other vehicles, there may have been improper fitting of seals when airbags were retrofitted.
The affected Honda Models are:
... Acura CL, model years 1997 – 1999, 201 & 2002
... Acura EL, model years 1997 – 2000
... Acura RL, model years 998 – 2003
... Acura TL, model years 1999 – 2001
... Acura MDX, model years2001 – 2002
... Honda Accord, model years 1998 – 2000
... Honda Civic, model years 1996 – 2000
... Honda CRV, model years 1997 – 2001
... Honda Odyssey, model years 1998 - 2001
