I have a recall on my airbags but the Acura repair shop does not have the part and it has been 6 months since I received the notice that their is a dangerous recall. What can I do?.
A recall was issued several months ago for my airbags. The parts are not available and I have yet to receive notification of the recall from Acura (I found out on the web). Previously, I had contacted Acura by mail and was told over the phone that I would have to pay for my airbags to be fixed when the first takata recalls happened in 2016). My car is without a doubt unsafe to drive. I've attached the original letter I wrote them based on our conversations. They do have my contact information! there is no excuse for the delay in notifying me or in repairing my airbags.

Takata recall. My transmission is acting up. ???.
Car passed inspection in January, srs came on.
Alarm for airbag turned red all time. Request for tests and verifications were denied by dealer.
My srs light turned on a few days ago, so I went into mullers woodfiled Acura in hoffman estates, IL. For them to diagnose the issue, they charged me $130. 00 and told me that opds control unit needs to be replaced and it will cost me Close to $800 with a managers discount. This opds unit had a manufacturers extended warranty which ran for 10years and expired sometime in 2010/2011. Now that it is out of warranty, I have to pay for this by myself. I did call Acura/Honda Client relations/customer service hotline and the customer service rep: [xxx] who opened up a case #[xxx], did assist me by apologizing but somehow did not even offer me a discount. I am very disappointed with Honda/Acura for this warranty issue because I did not replace this opds unit because my srs light never turned on, am I supposed to purposely turn it on before the warranty expired to get the opds unit replaced? I believe it should be replaced at least once for everyone that ever owned a Honda/Acura model that had a similar issue. I would appreciate it if someone could get back to me to direct me to right person that could assist me with this issue and/or open up a case against Honda/Acura to help resolve this issue.

2001 Acura Cl with transmission problems (slipping)** the consumer stated he was not having problems with the transmission at the time when a letter was received regarding possible automatic transmission problems with certain 2001-2001 Acura's, however he was experiencing srs wiring problems in Dec 2002. The transmission problems didn't began until December 2003, which resulted in having a re-manufactured transmission installed. The consumer stated there was never a mention of engine mount problems or replacement in the notice that was received in 2002. 4 years later the consumer began to experience more problems, the transmission was replaced, 11 days later more problems had surfaced with the second transmission and upon inspection, the front engine mounts needed to be replaced. The consumer believed there was a direct relationship between the front engine mounts and the transmission problems he experienced. The engine mounts should have been replaced the first time the transmission started to exhibit a problem.
The air bag casing popped twice and the air bag was replaced.
