The recall, which is part of Honda's global campaign of fixing potential defect related to airbags, would cover 10,805 units of premium sedan Accord, 575 units of sports utility vehicle CR-V and one unit of Civic sedan.
"The company would carry out preventive replacement of passenger side airbag inflator of 575 units of CR-V manufactured in 2004 and driver side airbag inflator of 10,805 units of Accord manufactured between 2003-2007 as part of Honda's global recall/safety improvement campaign concerning airbag inflators," Honda Cars India Ltd (HCIL) said in a statement.

Meanwhile, the government is working on a recall policy.
