Honda Expands Airbag Recall More Than 800 000 Cars In U S Total


Honda says drivers-side airbags in many of its 2001 and 2002 Honda and Acura vehicles could deploy with too much force, resulting in injury or death.

Tough guys will say "Hey, I can take a punch"...but thats not what Hondas talking about here. The force involved could shatter the inflator casing and send metal fragments flying through the airbag cushion material and into...well, you and your passengers.

Same basic principle as a grenade.

Honda says its aware of a total of 14 incidents, with one fatality.

This is phase three of this recall. It began sixteen months ago with 4,000 cars, had 436,000 added to it in July 2009 and today 378,758 cars join the list.

Full details are in the official Honda news release.

Even when working properly, airbags are, as now-retired (damn!) Car and Driver Editor at Large Patrick Bedard once noted, the only safety device in our history that comes with a label warning that you could be killed using it properly. A decade ago, he wrote a series of columns about them before finally giving up. Heres the one thats been preserved online. If you have both children and a car with airbags, please...please read it.

toyota yaris 2012

Sales of the Toyota Yaris (called Vitz in Japan) took a header last year in the American market, dropping almost 40 percent over 2009, which was one of the worst sales years in forever. To say that Toyota needs to give its small car some love is an understatement, and that makes the U.S. debut of the new 2012 Toyota Yaris all the more important . “We need to stand out more,” says deputy chief engineer Yoshinari Toyomura. “That is one reason why the new Yaris has grown in size and taken on an edgier look compared to its predecessor.” Recently, we had a chance to check out the Japanese-spec version of the new car, and we immediately saw what Toyomura meant. The new B-segment bigwig is 3.5 inches longer with a wheelbase that gains 2 inches. Toyota is hoping the new car’s more aggressive edges will appeal to a larger audience (read: males). The car does feel bigger, but the company’s efforts to minimize costs while improving packaging are met with mixed results. The engine lineup gets new versions of the 1.3-liter and 1.5-liter gas variants as well as a revised 1.4-liter diesel for Europe (expect the 1.5-liter version to continue as the base engine for the U.S., although a 1.8-liter and a hybrid model are also rumored). The highlight of the lineup is undoubtedly the car we tested: the 1.3-liter Smart-Stop Package. Taking just 0.35 seconds to restart after seamlessly cutting the engine at idle, the smart-stop works to improve fuel economy by some 2 mpg, thus achieving 61.5 mpg in the Japanese mpg cycle. But the start-stop is only offered on the 1.3-liter due to its hefty $700 price tag. More strikingly, VSC and TRC traction controls, which are standard on the 1.3-liter version, are not even offered as options on other models, although we’re guessing that will change for the U.S. market version.
Tuned for optimum fuel economy and CO2 emissions, the 1.3-liter was adequate but by no means quick. Mated to a revised CVT, it pulled sufficiently from around 2000 rpm and stayed strong enough through the mid-ranges — we think, because our car did not have a tachometer. We expect the five-speed manual and a tach to continue to be offered in the U.S. Although it’s unclear if the CVT will come stateside, we wouldn’t bet against it, especially given the aging four-speed automatic on the present car. To keep up with rivals, the Yaris has stiffened body rigidity, a more compliant ride, and a better weighted, more responsive steering feel. While the new Yaris is more spacious, handles better than the old model, and looks considerably smarter, it’s been shortchanged on a few interior elements, and performance is middling at best. It’ll need those missing toys to stand out from the crowd when it arrives here, reportedly later this year

How to Add an iPod to a BMW 745i


1. Acquire a cassette tape adapter (if the vehicle has a tape player in it, as many older BMW models do). You can purchase this handy little device for around $20 at most electronics, audio or department stores. Simply insert the plug into the headphone jack and put the tape into the tape player to transport the sound from the iPod through the tape deck and subsequently out of the BMWs speakers.
2. Purchase an FM transmitter. This small broadcaster plugs into the iPod and transmits the audio within a small radius, allowing the antenna on the vehicle to receive it and play it on an empty FM radio station. (An empty station has either complete, or nearly complete, static; this means no radio stations are broadcasting locally on that particular frequency, making it open for FM transmitters to use.)
3. Have an auxiliary cable wired into the BMWs stereo by a car audio specialist. This small cable will run from the internal guts of the stereo into the cabin of the vehicle, allowing you to insert it into the headphone jack of the iPod and play it through the stereos auxiliary input.
4. Bring the vehicle to a car audio specialist and ask to have an iPod integration dock installed. This option will prove the most, but some car stereos allow you to plug a small adapter into the data dock on the iPod and use a digital display on the stereo to cycle through the iPods menu and operate it in almost the same way as if you were holding the iPod in your hand. (Note that this option may require a full replacement of the BMWs stereo.)

How to Check a Motor Mount


1.
A powerful flashlight will help to locate motor mounts in difficult-to-see areas.
Block the wheels with the wheel chocks to prevent movement of the vehicle either forward or backward. Raise the hood of the vehicle and use the flashlight to locate the motor mounts. Motor mounts will be located in various locations above and below the engine and transmission depending on the specific model.
2. Examine the motor mounts for signs of damage. The rubber blocks in the motor mounts can crack, split, or show other damage that will require replacement. Examine hydraulic mounts for signs of fluid leakage, corrosion or other damage. The mounting plates that secure the mounts to the vehicles frame may also corrode or break.
3. Have the assistant start the vehicle. While you stand off to the side of the vehicle to observe the engine, have the assistant depress and hold the brake pedal and shift the car into drive. Watch the engine for rapid or excessive movement. The engine should move less than ½ an inch when placed into gear. A banging noise may also be a sign of a faulty motor mount.
4.
Shifting the car between drive and reverse will cause the engine to move.
Have the assistant place the vehicle in reverse and again watch for movement or noise. Have the assistant place the car back into park and turn off the vehicle.
5. Use pry bar to flex motor mounts. Any looseness in the mount will require replacement of the motor mount.
6. Use the pry par to check for play between the motor mount and the mounting surface of the engine or transmission. Play between the motor mount and mounting surface may be a result of bolts that come loose.
