Very unhappy at the way honda is handling this. Telling us that it takes 60 to 90 days to get the parts that seems extreme. The whole situation seems…

Takata recall: the dealership is not calling me to replace the passenger side airbag and/or piece that needs replacing. This is our family vehicle and we need the vehicle to travel from tucson, az to lodi, ca for the christmas holiday, 2016. It is dangerous to have a passenger in the front seat. It was supposed to be remedied by fall, 2016. I am ready to sue honda!! I need an immediate fix for the vehicle or a…

Takata recall. This recall has been in effect for almost a year and they still do not have the parts to fix my car. This recall could kill myself and my child and any other passengers in my car if we were to be in a crash! This is unacceptable!

The recall notice for this passenger side airbag problem recommends not having anyone sit in the passenger seat. It has been 9 months since this recall was announced and my local honda dealer informs me that honda still has no solution to the problem. Literally this defect can kill a person in the event of a low speed accident that triggers the airbag. This is a life and death matter and honda has not fixed it in 9…
