Problems with 2002 Honda CR-V AIR BAGS

Takata recall i received a recall notice x5c for my 2002 honda cr-v but honda has stated in 2 different phone calls that they do not have the resources to fix my car at this time. during both phone calls, the honda representatives told me not to have anyone ride in the passenger front seat. the nhtsa website lists the 2002 cr-v as one of the cars that should not be driven except to the dealer for repair. my dealer, mendenhall auto in juneau, ak, has advised me that my cr-v is part of phase 5 and that honda will not authorize repair of my vehicle at this time. based on the information from nhtsa and honda, my car is not safe to drive but neither honda nor the authorized dealer is willing to repair it. mendenhall auto stated it will probably be next summer before repair will be authorized. honda refused to give me a timeline estimate for repair, just repeatedly stating they would call me when more information is available. this is unacceptable and potentially life-threatening.

No air bag

Tl* takata recall. the contact owns a 2002 honda cr-v. the contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v384000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were not available. the dealer (weber ford, 3465 progress pkwy, granite city, il 62040, 618-452-5400) confirmed that parts were unavailable. the manufacturer was not notified. the contact had not experienced a failure. parts distribution disconnect.

Takata recall my honda-crv was hit behind by a young lady in november 2016. she admitted her fault and her insurance company paid for the repair to the garage.the rear bumper was severely dented and it created some other mechanical problems and the garage owner fixed them.i do not have knowledge about it. emphatically, i should say: # 1. when this accident took place the air-bag did not deploy. it is a big question ? # 2. the garage owner, during the repair days asked me to take the vehicle to another garage who did the 'wheel alignments." one of the persons there told me " the excel is not good/defective and need to be fixed or replaced... something like that as far as i can remember." i said that i can not afford to do that now and i brought the vehicle back.i told about it to my garage owner. he inspected it and said " can not see such a thing, but will see later." since then, i use the car with suspicious and scare to drive far away places. never drive on free-ways. # 3. i got a dash board warning in september this year. the garage owner said that engine oil need to be changed and i did so on 09.26.2017. but still the light is on ? i think it says " maintenance required." why is the light is on even after oil change is done ? i do not drive the vehicle everyday as i can not afford gas money. we are state beneficiaries and the state has categorized us as low income family. myself and three family members most of the time travel by bus. therefore, i can not afford to pay for repairs and kindly help me to fix these issues at an early date. thank you.

I received in the mail a notice for vehicles with tamara airbags from tk holdings inc, concerning the airbags in the above mentioned vehicle. i am concerned about the endangerment this may present. please advise me on what steps i need to take to correct this problem.

I was involved in an incident where a vehicle pulled out in front of me and i hit them. the damage to driver side front end damage is such that i am unable to open the drivers door or drive the vehicle safely without repair. i do not understand why the airbag system failed to deploy. i did take my vehicle in for the safety recall airbag replacements when notified.

I had been driving for approximately 30 minutes. as i drove along i-575 - a 4-lane highway - i noticed a kind of power surge from my engine. my speedometer registered 80 mph! i applied the brakes but was unable to slow the car more than 20-30 mph, and then it started to creep back up. i exited at that point, knowing i needed help. i was still going much too fast. i looked for a service station and not only was there none, within seconds i was faced with a red light with 4 lanes of cross traffic (george busby parkway) - i couldn't stop the car! so i took it off the road in a controlled crash, going over the curb, 6 or so feet of grass, a huge hedge, and crashed into a very tall, mature crape myrtle. thank god the car finally stopped. i was fortunate the crape myrtle consisted of multiple trunks rather than being an oak or similar. the crape myrtle managed to dissipate the impact of my car and i only sustained a broken wrist. the air bag did not deploy. my insurance company is charging me with driving out of control!!!!

My car was totaled but none of the airbags deployed. with such a huge damage which happened on a highway at high speed with two flips and hit a tree before it came to an upside down stationary position, the air bags should have deployed as a safety feature but none of them did. the photos of the wrecked car were attached.

Had the recalls done and now the srs light will not go out. have tried the reset and hooked up my code reader - code reader has no indication of a problem. reset did not work. concerned about safety and also do not want to take it to a dealer for a $100+ diagnostic if it is honda's fault. seems a lot of owners are having this problem. car starts and runs fine but the srs light remains on. is there a warrentee with the safety systems.

Last night around 8pm my husband and i were leaving a clients house in leesport. we were going south on rt 183. we were driving appoximatly 20 mph. with no warning at all, a big deer jumped and slammed into the drivers side. hitting the front side of the vehicle. we pulled off of the road immediately. the fluid from radiator was leaking out.

The srs light on my instrument panel recently activated which i figured was a result of the recent air bag recall and would be rectified when the dealer replaced the air bag parts as part of the recall. unfortunately, after having both passenger and driver air bag recall work completed on 6/30/15, the srs light remains lit. cost of repair was estimated by dealer at $850 and apparently not covered by honda as part of the recall(!) even though i was told the srs system controls both the air bag and seat belt tensioning systems. not sure how these units would wear out other than by internal failure since the air bags fortunately haven't ever been deployed- sure seems like it should be a no brainer recall item given the potential life safety danger the failure of this system poses.

The vehicle has pending airbag recalls (nhtsa recall number: 14v-351 and 14v-349) for the takata-brand air bag inflators since the end of 2014. i have been able to have the passenger side airbags replaced, but, after multiple calls to the dealer, i continue to be told that the driver?s side parts are on national back order. i find this unbelievable, as the reasons for these recalls have been grievous injury and even death to drivers. the honda dealership seems incredibly nonchalant about this issue. the inability to fix these life-threatening safety recalls by both honda and takata should be looked into by the authorities. thank you. *tr

Difficulty obtaining appointment to replace driver's side air bag per safety recall notice.the honda dealerships in my area are telling me the driver's side air bag is back ordered. i had an appointment to have this part replaced on march 2, 2015, however the day before my appointment the dealership phone to cancel and told me the part would be in the first week of april. no follow up phone call occurred, so i contacted the dealership today and was told the part will not be available until june. this may be true, however i want to verify this is, in fact, the case.
