Power Train problem #1

I have had real trouble recently getting my key out of the ignition switch - one time it took me 10 minutes, even tho I had the wheels totally straight & I kept turning engine off & back on many times. (this has happened many times over the past half year or so & occasionally before that) this is already a recall for vehicles of my year or Element, but for some reason mine wasn't included & it definitely should have been! NHTSA campaign 10v361000.

Power Train problem #2

We have had to repair the front suspension parts the entire front suspension and steering component on our 2010 Honda Element ex and from the very first time we drove it. It never drove right. It would jerk you out of a curve we took it back to the dealer twice and they kept telling us it was because we were not used to driver assist system. Well since then 5 times we have had the front end steering and suspension replaced thousands of dollars! why has there not been a recall? and from friends responses it's not just the Element, it's Honda civic and Honda accord also, the parts are made too short. Honda even has a extension kit but you can't buy it! why has there been no recall?.
