Honda Motor Co. said it failed to fully comply with a U.S. law to inform regulators about deaths and injuries relating to the Takata Corp. air bags at the center of a global vehicle-safety crisis.

“As I look back on our activity, I think we acted with urgency,” Rick Schostek, Honda North America executive vice president, said yesterday at a U.S. Senate committee hearing to investigate the air-bag recalls. “Have we met our obligations to report Tread? We have not.”
