Due to this condition, at least 13 motorists have lost their lives in the United States and Malaysia and more than 100 have been injured in accidents worldwide.

Cars from approximately a dozen automakers have been caught up in this crisis and replacing their airbags is a costly job....

2017 Civic Hatchback Patent Images











Behind the sports trimmed and accessorized 5-door Civic Concept shown at Geneva this month, lies the production-spec variant of the compact hatch and these recently emerged patent images prove it.

Although looking much more tamed than its show-only counterpart, it appears that the Civic Hatch will stay true to the original, sporting the same basic ingredients and lines. Sure, the big wheels are gone, and so are the side skirts and...
