Known issues on the 2006 Accord. Seventeen recalls are on federal record for this model year. The largest cluster covers driver and passenger frontal air bag inflator modules, where propellant degradation after long-term humidity and temperature exposure can cause the inflator to rupture and throw metal fragments at occupants; related campaigns cover a passenger air bag installed incorrectly during a prior replacement, a passenger module that didn't meet advanced air bag requirements, and front impact sensor bolts that could loosen and delay deployment. Beyond air bags, recalls cover an automatic transmission secondary shaft bearing that can fracture and cause the engine to stall or let the vehicle roll after the gear selector is set to Park, a power steering hose that can deteriorate and leak fluid onto the hot catalytic converter with a fire risk, an aftermarket accelerator pedal assembly that can bind, tires with a damaged bead area that can lose air while driving, aftermarket replacement headlamp assemblies missing required amber side reflectors or built with misaligned photometrics, and owner's manuals printed with incorrect NHTSA safety hotline contact information. Owners have filed 430 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From an inflator-related air bag concern to a stalling automatic transmission or a power steering hose inspection, it keeps you on Honda's OEM procedure and the correct torque spec for your specific 2006 Accord.
