One day my Pilot 2012 suddenly started turning on and off the passenger airbag then out of the blue the airbag system light when on. Scanned it an it reads the passenger weight sensor is not communicating the part is no longer available to purchase and it is in backorder with date of delivery to be determined. Car is not safe to operate and Honda is not selling the part anymore to get the repair. What should be my options?.
I got this car as a loan from a 3rd party dealer ship and they never told me it had a recall days after the airbag light pops up in the dashboard I took it to get service and they stated that the problem was fixed. The light on the dashboard was gone. A couple days ago the light came back and it makes a weird noise when you turn it on and the car gets humidity so fast the windows fog up and I have to turn the ac on. It doesn’t feel safe to drive it at times but I have to for work. I just want to make sure it’s safe to drive from la to sylmar I’m afraid if it gets to hot or humid that the airbag will go off, and I’m paying way more than I expected each month for the car and it doesn’t feel safe.

I am currently stationed in germany and returning to us in the end of August. I have been trying to get Honda to help me correct the safety recall on the rivets since June and they have not help me. I cannot ship my vehicle back to the us unless all the safety recalls have been corrected. I even paid the local german Honda dealer to conduct the inspection on the rivets for the air bag and they said all was ok. But Honda has not cleared the database.
I received a letter that said that I need to call to take my vehicle to an Honda dealer to repair the passage air bag.

I got an accident on 06/30/2016 and still waiting for my Honda Pilot 2012 airbag (passenger side) since month and a half. I opened a case with american Honda to provide me an alternative transportation as they are not able to deliver the airbag within reasonable timeframe but it ended up with a moment of disappointment. After three weeks of hassle, the american Honda said we cannot provide you alternate transportation as the air bag is not part of recall. However, the case manager said "the part is on critical backorder, it¿s on the highest level and there is no eta". The disappointment does not end here! I ask the case manager to send me this decision in black and white so I can discuss this matter with legal experts but all I hear no, they are not allowed to do so. Moreover, I asked american Honda to talk to supervisor of my case manager and its almost a week since I am waiting, waiting and waiting. Just so you know, for me it's a big waste of time and I found Honda service reps really unprofessional.
Air bag manufacturer recall on Honda Pilot.
Husband was driving my 2012 Honda Pilot and passenger curtain air bag ruptures. Patty pack Honda manager states they are not responsible for fixing my vehicle. Geico insurance company is stating there investigation determined that Honda is responsible for repairs. Either party is trying to repair my vehicle. Honda states its my insurance company responsibility and geico states its Honda responsibility. After conducting research on my vehicle, I even called Honda and spoke with manager and told them that they have a air bag recall on this vehicle. They never once offered to fix my vehicle! I have/am going through hell just to get try to get my vehicle fixed.
Airbag was recalled/replaced in 2012-2013. Husband was in an accident with another vehicle. His airbag deployed and left a nasty burn on his arm. He was told it was due to the powder. Accident occurred in town while turning so relatively slow speed. I felt he should report the incident back in October 2014 before I had heard about these recent airbag recalls. My concern is there may be problems with the replacement airbag if that is what he received - I dont have access to his VIN number right now.
