Known issues on the 2014 Insight. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year, and all three trace back to the Takata airbag inflator crisis. Two cover the passenger frontal air bag inflator module, which can explode under long-term exposure to heat and humidity and send sharp metal fragments toward the driver or other occupants, resulting in serious injury or death. The third covers the driver's frontal air bag inflator, which can rupture from moisture intrusion with the same risk of fragment injury in a crash. Owners have filed 5 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you're confirming an airbag inflator replacement or working through the hybrid system's routine service intervals, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2014 Insight.
