1 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 03/23/2020

My car needs the NHTSA recall 20v-026, drivers airbag inflator replacement. As of today, March 23, 2020, parts are not available to correct this safety defect. The recall notice from Acura states "the airbag inflator could also rupture during deployment, with metal fragments possibly striking the driver or passengers, increasing the risk of serious injury or death. " I am afraid to drive this vehicle based on this possibility. I contacted american Honda consumer affairs (case # 10324034) and requested alternate transportation to be provided at Acura's expense until the parts are available. My request was refused. I am asking NHTSA to intervene and escalate my request for alternate transportation.
