Honda CR-V: Front Airbags (SRS) / Housing Locations

Honda CR-V 2017-2026 Owner's Manual / Safe Driving / Airbags / Front Airbags (SRS) / Housing Locations

The front airbags are housed in the center of the steering wheel for the driver, and in the dashboard for the front passenger. Both airbags are marked SRS AIRBAG.
