Reply to comment by ahm713 in TIL the first confirmed victim of Takata airbags was 18y/o Parham. As she drove around a car park, she lightly bumped another vehicle making the airbag inflate, sending metal pieces at such tremendous force that one hit the teen’s neck slicing open her carotid artery. She bled to death in her seat by ahm713

Good to point out Honda was not the only manufacturer that used these faulty air bags, not by a long shot.

Is there any sort of list or anything to see what manufacturers and models were affected?

Yeah it should be readily available online. Also you can call a dealership with your VIN and they'll tell you if your TSB was ever completed or not.
