Takata recall: on 12/6/2016 per recall Honda dealer replaced both driver side and passenger front air bag inflators. In July 2017, while car in park and running, dash airbag sensor light came on as passenger was putting on her seat belt and remained on while driving until car engine was shutoff. Upon restarting car, under same conditions, airbag sensor did not come on again. On 7/27/17 this issue was evaluated by the same dealer with testing revealing "front passenger weight sensor - intermittent failure". Told repair of such is not part of air bag sensor recall since it is in the seat, starting with replacing seat side assembly with just the part costing approx $1100 + labor cost-unknown cost, advised for safety, to avoid unexpected air bag deloy, do not have passenger in front seat if air bag sensor light is on.

Takata recall I own a 2007 Honda crv. I am very concerned that because my vehicle has only been registered in NY state, I am being forced to drive an unsafe vehicle. I have the same takata part (passenger side airbag) as the vehicles located in other states. I have the documentation to prove that. I know that the recall has been expanded, and that I am in zone c. My car dealership has informed me that other vehicles same model same year have had their passenger air bags replaced already. Apparently they are in one of the good zones. Yet I am being told by both the dealer and Honda that, even though parts are available, my car is not eligible. Yet cars in states that border mine, including PA and OH are able to get their airbag inflators replaced. I don't believe that the humidity everywhere in PA is higher than everywhere in NY. The humidity in my area this summer has been in the 80's and 90's. I feel that these "zones" are arbitrary, and designed to help Honda rather than concerned with the safety issues of the vehicle owners. I want Honda to repair my vehicle now, or at least provide me with a safe loaner vehicle. As it stands now, I can't take the chance of allowing anyone to ride in the passenger seat of the vehicle. I was able to get the driver side inflator replaced, but my VIN is not under recall. Just because my state is not in the correct zone does not mean my car is safe. I feel like I'm sitting in a ticking time bomb. Please help me to drive safely again.

Takata recall: March 2016 I received a letter from Honda re recall on driver's side airbags - was told to contact a local dealership (mckenny-salinas Honda) for replacement airbag and for rental car. Turned in my vehicle and procured rental 4/08/16. Returned to rental company to extend rental 5/25/16. Picked-up my vehicle from dealership 6/08/16. Received another letter from Honda in July 2016, this time re driver side airbag recall. Letter stated ". . . Passenger frontal airbag inflator recalls will become available in late summer/fall of 2016. Honda will send you another letter when parts become available to repair your vehicle. " the letter also warned not to allow anyone to sit in the front passenger seat. I have not received any further documentation re repair/replacement of driver side airbag. To say I am frustrated and angry, at this point, 5 months later, is an understatement. I have been the owner of 2 other Honda vehicles and I must say, this is the first time I am utterly disappointed in the service, or, lack thereof, from Honda. Waiting for this recall has been an inconvenience that's not only affected me, but also my disabled aunt who depends on me for transportation to various destinations. It is very difficult for her to get in and out of the back seat of my crv as it is physically higher than the front passenger seat and because she suffers with chronic knee and back pain. Please advise on what steps I need to take to remedy this problem quickly. I've done my part by waiting patiently and I now I feel it is past time for Honda to do their part. Thank you.

Takata inflators. I need assistance for my 82 year old mother. Her Honda is part of the recall for the takata inflator. Upon reading the instructions off the web site advising her to go to her local dealership. . To rent a car. . . She was turned away and told they had no cars available. I have called 2 additional dealers about the recall and was not given any information other than to call back. . . Every week. . . I was told by the 1-888-234-2138 # that there is a waiting list that the dealer must put you on and that each dealer has a pre negotiated rate with hertz or enterprise. . . . . So why would my mother be turned away from her local dealer and not assisted in this recall that is life threatening to Honda passengers? I feel like no Honda dealer really wants to be bothered by this recall.

I visited my Honda dealer (crown Honda in pinellas park florida) on April 4th, 2016 in connection with important safety recall service bulletin #16-016 received from the automobile division of american Honda motor CO. , inc. Crown Honda's service advisor (james g. Mclaughlin) told me the part(s) necessary to fix my car will not be available until late summer 2016, but that I should not worry because the statistical probability of either myself or a passenger in my vehicle suffering any kind of harm or injury is highly remote. I mentioned that my vehicle is apparently at greater risk of the faulty part(s) failing because it is an older vehicle being operated in a very high humidity/high temperature environment - the tampa bay area of florida. Mr. Mclaughlin was still of the view I should not be too concerned as the whole recall matter had been blown out of proportion by NHTSA. But while driving yesterday I heard some unusually weird noises coming from where my driver and passenger front airbags are located and I was very fearful of an airbag inflator failure because it was a very hot humid day. My dealer has refused to confirm whether my vehicle will be receiving priority because of the high risk environment in which it is operated. Yesterday I called american Honda at 1-888-234-2138 and spoke with a customer service rep named emmit located in torrance CA and he too was unable to confirm whether my vehicle was on a priority list given its much higher risk of the part(s) failing. I need help from someone - please help me. Thank you.

Takata recall - received notice of takata inflator notice first part of March 2016, called dealership and was informed that parts would not be available until June 2016. I told them that I drive 500 miles per week and felt that this was very unsafe. It is now mid June and parts are still not available. I have now learned that they should have offered me a rental car. I am very unhappy that I have been driving an unsafe vehicle in texas, a high priority replacement area since March without remedy.

Recall filed in February 2016. No alternative vehicle has been provided by manufacturer, or dealership. No resolution provided, except for we will contact you soon. No contact has been made. Specifically, in some vehicles, the driver's front airbag inflator could produce excessive internal pressure upon deployment. If an affected airbag deploys, the increased internal pressure may cause the inflator to rupture (break apart) and deploy abnormally. Safety risk: in the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material possibly causing serious injury or fatality to you or others in the vehicle. Past ruptures like this have killed and injured vehicle drivers.
