Airbag Care - Honda CLARITY Fuel Cell 2021 Owner's Manual

Airbag Care

You do not need to, and should not, perform any maintenance on or replace any
airbag system components yourself. However, you should have your vehicle
inspected by an authorized Honda Clarity Fuel Cell dealer in the following situations:
■
When the airbags have deployed
If an airbag has inflated, the control unit and other related parts must be replaced.
Similarly, once an automatic seat belt tensioner has been activated, it must be
replaced.
■
When the vehicle has been in a moderate-to-severe collision
Even if the airbags did not inflate, have your authorized Honda Clarity Fuel Cell
dealer inspect the following: the driver's seat position sensor, weight sensors in the
passenger's seat, front seat belt tensioners, and each seat belt that was worn during
the crash.
■
Do not remove or modify a front seat without consulting an authorized
Honda Clarity Fuel Cell dealer
This would likely disable or affect the proper operation of the driver's seat position
sensor or the weight sensors in the passenger's seat. If it is necessary to remove or
modify a front seat to accommodate a person with disabilities, contact an
authorized Honda Clarity Fuel Cell dealer, or call American Honda Automobile
Customer Service at 1-800-999-1009.
