These vehicles are equipped with certain air bag air bag inflators assembled as part of the frontal air bag modules, and used as original equipment or replacement equipment (such as after a vehicle crash necessitating replacement of the original air bags), may explode due to propellant degradation occurring after long-term exposure to higher absolute humidity, temperature and temperature cycling.

At acceleration between 25-45mph extreme shaking. Went to get vehicle diagnostics and determined it was failed axel due to history from other honda crosstour owners. Both axels replaced at over $1200 and shaking is gone. The car has about 56000 miles.
