Takata recall - this issue has not been resolved in a timely manner. I continue to drive around terrified that I will get in an accident and my airbag will deploy. I should feel safe because of my airbags but instead I feel fear. I kept my car in florida from 2008-2012 and understand that the heat may make my vehicle more vulnerable. I would like to get this resolved as quickly as possible so that I can feel safe driving my car and having passengers with me. Thank you.

Takata recall I called the Honda dealership at central avenue in albany NY thinking they could address the dashboard light indicating a malfunction with the airbag knowing in the past there has been a recall on this yet they reported they cant help me other than me purchasing the part. This is a great dilemma for me considering I dont have the money for this and my car wont pass inspection as long as this light is on; the current sticker expires in three days!.
Takata recall efforts are not being completed in a timely manner. The recall date for my vehicle (may 23, 2016) was almost four months ago and I'm still told that parts are not available to correct the issue, yet still have to drive around in a vehicle that is potentially deadly. This is unacceptable.
Your video looks like both airbags are defective. My recall letter only said passengers side? which is it? why dont you supply a rent a car? I have to drive my grandchildren to school, what about thier safety in back seat?.
Takata recall - we reached out to grossinger Honda (6600 n western Ave, chicago, IL 60645) regarding the recall in September of 2016. They said they were ordering the parts and would reach out when they arrived. This dealership never ordered the parts nor did they reach out. We called a second time (in November 2016) and they said the same thing - that they needed to order the parts. This dealership never ordered the parts nor did they reach out either time. I'm writing this as a formal complaint against grossinger Honda for ignoring customer recalls rather than performing the required repairs within the 60 day window.
Parts not available per company. Company ask us to contact dealers. Dealer on contacted transfers to company. Difficult to keep on wasting time on phone for hours and loose working hours and so reduced pay. Tired. Parts are not available since almost six or more months.

Takata recall: I have been waiting since July 2016 for a letter from Honda notifying me of parts to repair airbags in my car, no notification yet as to when parts for a free repair will be available.
Takata recall. While driving approximately 10 mph, the air bag ruptured without warning. The vehicle was taken to a dealer who stated that they would repair it at the contact's expense. The failure was not due to the open recall and was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that it was different from the deployment versus a rupture; therefore, it would not be remedied. The VIN was included in NHTSA campaign number: 16v346000 (air bags); however, the part to do the repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The failure mileage was approximately 121,000.
Takata recall: I purchased this car to transport myself, spouse and 3 children. Since being notified of the recall, I can only transport 4 of us, since by Honda's own instructions on the recall, "Honda suggests you should avoid having a passenger sit in the front passenger's seat until the recall repair has been performed. " I requested a loaner car from Honda on 7/23/16 at 1-888-234-2138 and was told it would be forwarded to the "case management dept". No contact from Honda. I called again on 8/4/16 and was told by kia that there is no direct phone # to case management, that I have no assigned case # for the loaner request and that she could not tell me when I would be contacted by the case management department. This unsafe car and lack of response by Honda is creating a burden for my family. I notified kia that I would be making a complaint to NHTSA.

Contacted sussman Honda dealer by phone regarding remedying passenger frontal airbag recall. Was told I would need to email. Sent email on 08/01/2016. No reply. Emailed again on 09/23/16, no reply. Called dealer and after a bit of "phone tag" and the service department struggling to find my VIN, info, etc. I was told the parts were already on order and I would be contacted when they were in. It is now a full year later, and I have not heard anything. My vehicle is still under recall and the issue has not been repaired.

Takata recall. I have to wait on parts to be available. In the meantime I must drive my car and I am taking a chance of having metal pieces fly in my face even as the driver. We drove cars without airbags long ago-I should have the choice at least of dismantling the airbags until they can be fixed. This is crap!.
I received a safety recall NHTSA recall 16v-346 on Saturday 7-23-2016, passenger frontal air bag, metal fragment could pass airbag cushion. Today 7/25/2016 the Honda dealer and Honda automobile customer service does not and will not offer a rental car for this recall, they state no one should sit in the passenger seat. Customer service stated it will late summer early fall before the parts will be in. If an accident would occur and the bag deployed the driver (me) would not be in a safe environment. Honda does not seemed to be concerned about the customers safety or convenience.

I received a recall notice in July. I contacted Honda to have the recall performed. They told me they would contact me when the parts arrived. It is now almost October and I have received no response to date. The recall notice states that the defect should be remedied within 60 days from the date that the dealer was contacted for a repair appointment. It has been well past 60 days with no response. I contacted them again and left a voicemail today, September 28, 2016.
Takata recall - I searched my VIN number to determine any potential recalls on my vehicle to find that mine is included on the airbag recall. I called my local dealership, and they informed me that they would order the part and it would take roughly a week to ship in; it would take about 45 minutes to fix once the part was in. I was utterly shocked that she wasn't surprised or even wanting to verify any information on my vehicle. I never received any notice as to the issue on my vehicle, and only found out from being proactive. This recall has been out since may of 2016, and its July and I still have yet to receive any information from Honda? this seems like gross negligence should something have happened if I was in an accident; I wouldn't have known that my passenger and possibly myself could be killed due to metal fragments being released when the airbag ruptures. Is it not required that this information be made aware to the owners of the vehicles by the manufacturers? why did I have to go out of my way to find out that there is a problem that is of their doing? where are the repercussions against the company for failing to be proactive? I have other issues with my vehicle that I will file under other reports. Honda isn't getting off clean anymore, not when they're quality has dropped and negatively impacted the safety of others.
I received a letter from Honda notifying me of a recall on my passenger air bag in July. It is now November and the parts are still not available. This is unacceptable for me to be driving an unsafe car for this long. I have a road trip planned in a couple of weeks and need my car to be safe for it.

Takata recall. Honda recall # ka5. Received notice of recall July 2016. Have not received any indication that remedy for recall is available. According to the website safercar. Gov, the recall was made known in may 2016. I would like to know how to resolve this safety issue. This seems to be too much time to wait to have such a serious problem resolved.

Takata recall. I found out about the recall in July and called the local dealer and Honda, and was told the part was not yet available and I would be notified when it was. On 9/20, I checked with the dealer and was told that the part is available but they have to order the VIN-specific part, which takes up to 4 weeks. I then called Honda to see why I wasn't noticed that the part was available, and the rep said Honda changed its mind about sending the parts availability notice and apologized for the "miscommunication. " the original recall notice advises me not to have a front-seat passenger, which is not always possible. The Honda rep was very polite but firm, essentially telling me too bad; I just need to wait and try not to use the passenger seat in the meantime. The dealer was also cavalier about the matter, suggesting I check back in case they don't contact me. Assuming the part is available in 4 weeks and the dealer fixes it quickly, that will still be 3 months of driving a car with a defect that has been lethal for people (should say since I knew I was driving a car with a potentially lethal defect). Doesn't Honda have any responsibility here?.

I received a letter in July stating the recall for the air bags propellent wafers being defected. I have called american Honda for the past week everyday trying to talk with a case manager about my specific needs of alternative transportation. I currently work for neuro community care who is contracted by wounded warriors. We currently serve over 500 warriors who have brain injuries across the us. My daily job is to transports warriors with brain injuries to medical appointments, stores, and community outings. To many it is thier only source of getting out of the house. For many suffer from ptsd. This job is my only source of income and not having a safe vehicle to use for my work is unacceptable. I have been told every time I call that a case manager has to call me back, but after a week I have heard nothing. My clients and my employment are suffering. I need your help in helping me getting hold of a case manager from american Honda who can authorize the rental of a safe vehicle while I wait for my Honda to get fixed. I have contacted my local Honda dealer (leith Honda in raleigh) and their response was they thinks the parts will be in within 2-3 weeks, but it is just a estimate. Please, please, please help me! I am afraid of the injuries for my clients as well as my family. My email is (chefelm@gmail. Com and my phone number is (919)616-2539 sincerely, ed manville.
Takata recall - heard the airbag might be on recall about a month ago. Daughter drives this car to college. Looked up Civic online and it met the recall for takata airbag. Took to dealership but they said they have no part for replacement until fall. This is unacceptable. Our 4 seat car is now a 'limo' as no one can sit in the front passenger seat. Also my daughter must return to college without the repair completed as the parts are not expected until after she must return. Her college is over 6 hours away. This is beyond inconvenient. And very unsafe. You need to supply the repair much sooner.
