buying a car with recalls?

Hi I'm trying to buy my first car and i wanted a civic. I heard about the whole airbag recall thing so I wanted to know if buying a civic with alot of airbag recalls is risky. I check he vins and sometimes they can hvae up to 22 recalls, thanks

Nothing wrong with a car needing recalls, just take it to the dealer after you buy it to get them to perform anything needed
