I bumped into a raised median and the airbag came out and the wheels got stuck in the median. on wheeler road. at 10 to 20 mph. i have an airbag recall but i have tried contacting you by phone and mail but it wouldn't accept my phone #. i got huge bruises and smoke inhalation from the airbag going off. it shouldn't have. the radio and seatbelt doesn't work either guess it affected the electrical system. please help me. thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
The problem seems to manifest when the passenger is a light-weight adult, in the case of my wife, in the neighborhood of 115 pounds ' light to be sure, but not absurdly so. *js we see the problem intermittently and rarely. maybe a handful of times in a week. the light on the dashboard that indicates that the side air bags are disabled comes on. if we are to believe this status indicator, for the period that this light is on, we are not protected by the side air bags as they would not deploy in an accident. this light stays on sometimes as little as three seconds, sometimes as long as a minute. most often it stays on for about ten to fifteen seconds. there is no pattern for when it might come on, or what will make it go off. it can happen when stopped at a traffic light, or traveling at freeway speeds, or anything in between. this problem only manifests when i am driving the vehicle and my wife is in the passenger seat. if she is driving and i am ...

Takata recall notified in march that airbag parts would be available in summer for repair to take place. contacted two dealers and was put on list for repair in may. nothing has been done to this point with no further contact from honda. 10-21-16.
Been trying to schedule replacement of the defective airbag, dealer doesn't know when the replacement bag will arrive and honda motors says they are available for the dealer. each is pointing a finger at the other one for the reason the part has not been delivered for the dealer to make the replacement. just want to get it replaced so i can safely drive my car. need help in getting the airbag replaced as soon as possible. am i expected to drive an unsafe vehicle until honda and the dealer finally fulfill their responsibility?
Takata recall recall status: recall incomplete. remedy not yet available so what are we supposed to do while honda is trying to figure out their next step?

Takata recall: on two separate occasions we've scheduled to have the parts replaced. both times honda called us to cancel stating the parts were not in yet. this has been going on since we received the notice back in march.
Takata recall - this recall has been extremely spurious with an inept corporation running it. i received the safety recall information in march 2016 regarding my 2013 honda fit sport drivers side air bag. i am still waiting the for part to arrived after several calls to honda automotive. i was told honda automotive will pay for a rental vehicle to drive during the over six month part delay (the letter stated the past summer the part would be available). i do not have the place or inclination to let the nitrogen out of my tires, empty the fluid out of the car, and put the vehicle up on blocks in a garage for over six months. when i speak with a dealer or the corporate office the staff is very cavalier regarding my well-being. i do not appreciate someone deciding to play russian roulette with my life especially individuals who act like unfeeling and incompetent robots. obviously, my family and i am concerned for my safety and i hope to win the cruel game i have been thrown into by honda automotive. i will say i have owned four honda ...
Takata recall: i received a letter in march 2016 that this defect could potentially kill or hurt me and my passengers. i've called the dealership on at least 3 different occasions and told the part would be in soon. i called again today, more than 6 months after getting the letter, and sat on hold from more than 15 minutes waiting for an answer about my part, stating again my safety concerns. i finally gave up and called honda national and was told that this was such a massive recall, getting the parts is slow. so in the meantime, i drive a car that puts me and my family at risk. today, for the first time, i was told i could get an alternative car to drive in the interim. better, but still not comforting to know my car is not only defective, but getting a resolution is proving to be problematic and potentially dangerous to my family. my concerns are: 1. why does it take this long? that seems completely unacceptable when potential death is involved. 2. why didn't my dealership offer a car earlier for my safety? 3. why am i ...
In march 2016 honda promised that the parts would be available in summer 2016 and honda would notify me. it is now almost october 2016 and the parts are still not available.
