I had called and spoke with a service man named george who said they are overwhelmed and they do not have the passenger side airbag parts in my recall and he would call me. He did not and this accident occurred. Now I am at risk of them totaling the car due to airbags deploying that they should have resolved in the first place. Not a happy camper with no relief from coggin Honda - who could have killed my son in this accident.

58 Side/window Air Bag problem of the 2009 Honda Accord

Failure Date: 09/21/2016

Takata recall - unreasonable time since notification for parts still not to be available to replace defected airbag(s). No matter whether I've had an incident I care for my uncle and can not take him places in my vehicle until your company deems it necessary to spend the money to fix its mistake. Please find an immediate solution or provide a loner car. And, I find it highly unlikely that the problem is only in the passenger airbag and not the driver or side airbags. Your notification did not provide enough explanation or peace of mind. You have lost a 4x Honda customer on a future car purchase and I'm sure many others due to your poor performance of this issue.

68 Side/window Air Bag problem of the 2011 Honda Accord

Failure Date: 05/02/2016

Takata recall- I am the only owner and driver of this car and for the past 1-1/2 years the passenger side airbag sensor has been going and off when idle or while driving. I have had numerous auto technicians check the sensor and been told there is nothing indicating any issues. The sensor should not go off on a car that has never been involved in any accidents!. I have paid paramus Honda to check my car and told that the sensor code has worn off or disappeared and that a special airbag technician will need to inspect the car for a fee. I need this to be remedied as I drive my children in this car daily and rely on it to get to work. The safety of anyone in the passenger seat is jeopardized if I have anyone sit in the front seat.
