Got a letter saying it's a recall on my airbags

Takata inflators. received april 2019 nhsta recall 19v-182 in mail. next day called gunn honda where vehicle purchased & requested appointment to address recall. provided vin, dealer rep found car and my name in their system. rep told me all recall appts had to be made by service advisor & someone would call me by next day. no call received so i called again the next day. i explained this car would be driven by my son when he returned from college & so needed to have this safety issue addressed before he drove car. rep again told me only service advisor could make a recall work appt & that she would mark my call a priority & i would hear back later that day. few days later, still no call. called third time, again told a service advisor would call me with appt for recall work. four weeks later, gunn honda dealership service advisor has still not called. clearly, this dealership has no concern for their customers' safety & the need for action on a nhsta mandated recall. today, i filed an online report with american honda to report the dealership's refusal to schedule recall work. the gunn honda dealership has a blatant disregard for the safety of the vehicle they sold to me. clearly, deaths and injuries have occurred because of these malfunctioining inflators yet they will not address the (second) recall. what is the point of issuing a recall when the car owner is unable to obtain the repair at the dealership where they purchased the vehicle? yesterday, i drove the vehicle to a honda dealership located at a further distance from my home and this dealership (hill country honda) addressed the recall work. please note my attempts to obtain an appt & waiting to get a response from gunn honda occurred over an abt 6 week period that began with my receipt of the 19v-182 recall notice in april.

One day i was driving on the highway coming from my dads house and it was raining that day and as i was driving i hit a lil pot hole on the highway and my airbags went off and my car was not hit or anything like that and i pulled over and call the police and as i was on the phone with them i went to move my car over some more off the highway and my car was feeling like it didnt want to go and the car dosent even have 100,000 miles on it and i the photos i sent you you dont see anything wrong with the body of the car or anything like that

Takata recall my 2007 honda accord airbag light has been on for the past 3 weeks, it stays, on the whole time i'm driving. someone was fatally injured by the shrapnel a couple weeks ago when the airbag deployed, this make me extremely nervous. i'm not sure what my next step should be. this is the only vehicle that i have. i paid this car off last year. i cannot afford another car payment or a rental car at this time. if someone could get back to me and with information and or suggestions as to what i should do. i did submit a claim for the takata class action lawsuit but i'm not sure how long i will have to wait before i will know the outcome. i would appreciate it if someone would contact me as soon as possible regarding this urgent matter. i can provide photos if needed.

I was driving about 40 miles per hour when i lost control of my steering wheel, i couldn't control it, the car slid to the oncoming traffic where i hit a oncoming car, my air bag deployed i had a seat belt, which the both did more damage to my chest then the accident itself. my car is considered totalled.

Takata recall. i have a v6 2007 4dr honda accord exl. all honda accords for model year 2007 that have a 4 cyclinder engines have the air bag recall, but my vin which is a v6 is not on the recall list. i wonder why that is the case. the airbag whether for an in-line 4 cyclinder vs v6 should virtually be the same, so it begs the question of why isn't my vin on the recall list?

My son and his friend were both wearing their seatbelts and they ran the light on yellow since it was not safe to stop because of the speed he was going. which anything above 35 makes it unsafe. and of course the person took off being careless herself. and of course an accident occurred, but the honda airbags did not deployed and the seatbelts became loose so both my son & his friend had to brace themselves from the impact of the accident. because the seatbelts became loose and now they don't work at all and the airbag light is on. as if the airbags were suppose to deployed and never did. *tr

Takata recall-my driver & passenger side airbags were replaced due to recall. as i was driving about 1-2 weeks ago, my airbag light came on for no reason. i had nobody in the car with me and the dash stated my passenger airbag was off. i assume it stays off unless i have a passenger weighing x amount of lbs. concerned.

Passenger airbag light flickering on and off, after some time driving stays lit on off under passenger airbag signal. the car was in motion on a city street for more than 10 minutes.

When i frist brought this car the air bags where not working. i was inform by macco paint shop in 2015 that the air bags had a recalled. i also called honda corporation office in order to be compensated for the accidents i had since i brought the car in may 8 2010, honda refuse to honor my request. i also had car repairs that didn't pass smog. i never receive a notice that honda had a recalled on airbag until 2017 they started sending ups letters to take the car in for repairs.i am a 63 year old women with mental and physical problems. in november 2017 the company since a letter in regards of a law suit against honda. i went online to file before the dead line , which is january 08 2018. i also request forms but i feel they didn't get them. i concern i will not get my refund. honda corporated office has all my information and all the 7 accident i occur.

Takata inflators. my vehicle appears on lists of affected vehicles and new jersey has now become a zone 2 state, yet my vehicle has not been recalled to replace the inflators and i have not received any explanation as to why. i called honda and nhtsa and have been told only that my vin is not on the recall list - i know that - that is the very reason for my concern. i do not trust that only the recalled vins are at risk. it is unacceptable that specific information about my vehicle and its airbags is not being provided. even the high-level general criteria provided by nhtsa and honda changes frequently, and recalls keep expanding after the facts of new deaths and injuries. also, the notion of waiting for takata analyses, previously falsified is not reasonable at all, let alone until dec 2019. nhtsa needs to see to it that all of the listed / affected vehicles be recalled for replacement of airbags/inflators now or that loaner cars be provided now. also, nhtsa needs to see to it that we are given specific information on the particular airbags in our cars along with detailed information on why each has not yet been recalled.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 honda accord. after the vehicle was started, the front passenger side air bag warning light illuminated. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was not notified. the failure mileage was 112,000.

My vehicle airbag light turned on twice within the last 5 months. each time it stayed on when i started my car. after a quick internet research i learned that with the airbag light on my airbags would not deployed if i were in an car accident. the first time it happened i took it into a honda service center for testing. i was told that i needed to replace my battery because the low voltage could be the cause. after replacing the battery the light turned off and everything was good. months later, the airbag light turned on again. i took my car to another honda service center and had it tested once again. this time i was told that my srs control unit needed to be replace due to corrosion/old age. after researching this further, i found that there is a recall on the srs control unit for honda vehicles. unfortunately, this recall excluded my particular year. i understand that this is public safety issue and i believe that honda should expand this particular recall to other years. others may not be as proactive in taking their vehicle in for testing or paying for the test and unit out of pocket. this is a huge safety issue that needs to be review before someone outside the recall classification gets injure or worse.

While driving the car, battery light turned on and off, steering wheel became stiff, car turned off and steering wheel locked it self.

My wife was involved in a collision while driving our 2007 accord. she was in motion at about 20 mph when another vehicle crossed her path, whereupon the front of our honda struck the right side of the other vehicle. this was on state route 66 at the on-ramp to i-215. the problem is that the driver's frontal airbag did not deploy despite the fact that the seatbelt is locked and the airbag light is now blinking. she suffered minor injuries from hitting her head on something during the collision and there were about $3,000 in repairs to our honda. it would seem that the airbags should have deployed in the crash since the airbag light is blinking, which i presume to mean that the module has recorded a permanent deployment event.

Takata recall passenger side airbags on the right side failed to deploy upon right side impact. severely injuring my passenger.

Takata recall. our honda accord 2007 airbag inflator under recall was replaced in 2014 at delray honda, boca raton, fl. in today's nytimes, may 4, 2016, a news article states that the problem now found is that ammonium nitrate in the takata inflator is now the most critically unsafe problem in the airbag. in a conversation today with a honda representative named sheryl, she stated she knew nothing about the ammonium nitrate problem, and that our inflator had been repaired in 2014. i requested that sheryl give me the phone number of a supervisor who might know more about the ammonium nitrate problems & repair solutions. she stated she couldn't give out any number, or connect me, but she could send a request to a supervisor laura, and added that laura would not be able to give me any explanation or information different that sheryl's. there are six family members, the youngest an 8 year old who sometimes ride in the passenger seat of our 2007 honda accord, and wish to receive answers to what honda plans to do to remove the inflator with ammonium nitrate in our honda, and what will be the chemical compound that will be used instead of ammonium nitrate. we wish to be safe and sound in a car, not anxious that there could be a problem causing serious injuries, or god forbid, death to anyone. if i don't hear from a honda supervisor re: what solutions will honda has to replace the ammonium nitrate, or install an safe airbag in our care with a safe inflator & chemical solution, i will let you know.

Takata recall why are some cars with takata air bags being recalled and others are not. if my car has takata air bags then it should be recalled.

Tuesday, january 26th, 2016, approx.9:45pm, my wife and i were traveling home from new jersey back to new york through highly populated traffic and pedestrian zones. our 2007 honda accord 4cyl, sedan with 59,700 miles came to a stop while traveling approx 20mph as we passed an intersection due to driver side curtain and seat deploying without cause. no other vehicle/pedestrian was involved, fortunately, and no damage was done to our vehicle. however the airbags strictly on the driver side, that are not part of a recall, deployed/malfunctioned thus potentially may have caused a serious or fatal accident had another vehicle or pedestrian been nearby. local dealer, paragon in woodside, appraised damage and cost of repair at $6,000.00 parts and labor. the service engineer concluded any dips in roads, potholes, hills, basically landscapes that direct/force the front of a vehicle forward could potentially set off the sensor for airbag deployment. contrary to their 'professional' statement our vehicle did not see such a scenario where only driver side of vehicle would require airbags being deployed. should the road conditions been severve all airbags should of deployed. having said that this should not be the case. should their statement be "true" consequently airbags would be going off with no accidents more often, and this would be a regular repair and putting a greater population at risk. we believe the driver side malfunctioned and we cannot be held reponsible when this safety feature is out of our control. we cannot stress this enough that there was no accident. vehicle was moving in a straight line 20mph going through a green light, on a modest incline downhill at best. bear in mind i've driven through that intersection on a regular basis and this has never happened before. i would happily re demonstrate. the airbags that deployed are not part of a recall

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 honda accord. the contact stated that while driving at 25 mph, another vehicle failed to yield. as a result, the contact crashed into the rear of the vehicle. the drivers side frontal air bag failed to deploy entirely and exploded emitting chemical substances and smoke. the contact stated that he inhaled the chemical substances. in addition, the contact stated that the rear passenger side occupant sustained left shoulder and back injuries but did not receive medical attention. the other two rear passengers did not sustain any injuries but required medical attention. a police report was filed. the vehicle was towed but was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 70,000.

My honda accord had a recall for both drivers side and passenger side airbags. i called the honda dealer closest to me to set up and appt. to get them replaced. took my car into the ryan honda dealership and they performed the work in a couple of hours. when i left the dealership, which was at the service department closing time, i noticed my seatbelt/airbag light was on, and would never go off (this light was not on before i had the parts replaced). i called the dealership to explain to them that the light came on after the airbags were replaced and will not go off. they told me that my seatbelt sensor was out and that had nothing to do with the airbags! well, my seatbelt sensor was not out before they did the work on my car. now, i'm leary that the airbags were not installed properly or something because of the light being constantly on. i do appreciate honda sending the airbag recall and footing the bill, but don't think it's fair to go into the dealership and something else gets messed up and i have to pay to get it repaired at my expense.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 honda accord. while driving approximately 25 mph, the contact crashed into another vehicle, which caused another vehicle to crash into the back of the contact's vehicle. the air bags failed to deploy. there were no injuries. a police report was filed. the vehicle was taken to rusty wallace honda (109 callahan dr, knoxville, tn 37912 (865) 938-4222) where it was diagnosed that the air bags needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired. while driving, another vehicle crashed into the rear passenger side door of the contact's vehicle. the air bags failed to deploy. there were no injuries. a police report was filed. the contact called rusty wallace honda at (865) 938-4222 and was informed that the impact from the other vehicle was not fast enough to deploy the air bags. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was unavailable.

My honda accord 2007 lx has its front passenger and driver airbags replaced with part number 04785sda306 and 04770sda305 in november 2014 and august 2015. it was replaced with the exact same part that was it was recalled for. do the 2 airbags have ammonium nitrate in them? if so why are they being replaced with the same part? also the was a desiccant put in?

Air bag ruptured in a accident i had. ther were no other vechical involved. i was driving and i can't really explain what happened to make me loose control of my car and make my car roll over. i know the bag ruptured leaving me with a gush between my eyes. which none is scared. i was in motion on a 2 way road that really didn't have that much traffic on it.
