Problems with 2006 Honda Ridgeline AIR BAGS

'takata recall' i had my airbags replaced for recall. i recently had a collision and air bags did not deploy. injuries consisted of chest, ribs and arm. my frustrations with honda have been a constant since i've had vehicle. other issues like blow hearter wires smoking and catching fire burning my ex wifes leg. too many details to write.

Takata recall - when i called the honda dealership in ames they said they could not find my information in their data base. after i gave them my phone number, name, and vin number. it was not a pleasant experience. i would also like to complain about the brakes on my truck. i took it to the local mechanic and he could not get the brakes adjusted to where there was not very much play in the pedal. you have to push down a long ways for the brakes to engage. it is a big safety issue.

Takata inflators i took my truck in for recalls but now red light (bag inflator) is on that means they are not on. i talked to honda they said could be some dirt in my seat belt latch? it comes on as soon as i put my seat belt on.

My srs light is on...service tech had several codes : 11-40open in drivers air bag inflator and 41-11 no signal from impact the light actuated after the completion of the air bag recall service. the estimated cost is $1666 to repair i want honda motors and/or tagatta (?) to make the repair at their cost. date first appeared is not known.....i entered 1-1-18 below.....might have been earlier or later

I just took my truck in for the airbags recall about 2weeks ago, october q2th, 2017. since i've gotten it back the windshield wipers don't work as good as they dud and i just put new wipers on before i took it into auto nation honda in columbusga. now there's a greasy film on the windshield that i can't get off. also there's another recall the dealership didn't acknowledge, fuel pump relay, so there's a recall for my truck for that part and hasn't been taken care of so i feel my safety is at stake, i also have a 4year old daughter.

Honda of ocala knows my vehicle has a recall but has my truck on a waiting list. when i call them for the status of the parts they are waiting for i am told that the parts are not in and they will call me. this has been going on for a year.

I contacted checkered flag honda on 7/8/16 to schedule corrective action on the air bag recall. i was told that the parts would be ordered and they would contact me when they were received in order to schedule the repair. on 9/2/16, i had not yet heard from them, so i called to see what the status. i spoke with technician [xxx], who informed me that the parts had not even been ordered yet. i just received an email from [xxx] confirming that they are now on order, but to have this action unnecessarily delayed is unacceptable. this is the only vehicle in which i can transport my severely disabled mother to her many doctor appointments, and the recall directly affects the seat she occupies. i would appreciate anything you could do to ensure the delivery is expedited and the service is completed as soon as possible. thank you. the number to the dealership we contacted is [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Takata recall. received recall notice in early july. made appointment at livermore honda for aug 1 specifically referring to recall notice. received several emails over a period of several weeks from the honda dealer reminding me of my appointment and referring to the specific recall. went to the appointment this morning and was told that the parts hadn't been ordered. what did they think the appointment was for? they said it would be 2 to 3 weeks before the part comes in and they would call me to set up a new appointment. it doesn't seem that the dealer is trying to remedy the defect in a reasonable period of time. it has cost me time and money to say nothing of possible danger because of ttheir inaction.

Takata recall we have been notified of the problem with both driver and passenger airbags. as of this date we have been told the parts are not available to make the repair. i am afraid of driving my ridgeline for fear of injury or death. the same goes for the passenger airbag.. also the electrical system could cause a fire. honda needs to rectify these issues as soon as possible, before someone is injured or killed! they need to fix or replace this vehicle or exchange it for a safe one.

This information is regarding the already existing air bag recall by honda. i received a recall notice in the mail today (april 15, 2015) and called my local dealer for an appointment. the earliest appointment was july 10, 2015. because this is a safety recall notice, i called honda customer service and inquired as to why a safety issue recall would take nearly 3 months to remedy. i was told that most patrons are waiting longer than that and he ([xxx]) was surprised that i actually got a specific appointment. he said there is a supply backlog of replacement air bags. i replied that with a safety issue such as this, and given the resources of honda motor co., they should do whatever is necessary to expedite the process. are customers supposed to drive their vehicles not knowing if a catastrophic occurrence could happen at any time? my question for nhtsa is are you aware of this repair delay and have you demanded that honda expedite the process? thank you. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

2006 honda ridgeline. consumer received recall notice, but has yet to hear back from the dealership regarding an appointment to have vehicle repaired. *ss

Honda is only recalling my make and model in certain geographical areas due to their perception of the humidity in those areas. the humidity in maryland where i live in the summer can be just as bad as georgia's. they should be recalling my vehicle in maryland just as they are in other states. please make them recall my vehicle. thank you. *tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda ridgeline. the contact stated that the service engine sensor, vtm sensor, esc sensor, and the air bag sensor intermittently illuminated and flashed. the failure worsened and all four sensors remained illuminated while the vehicle was in motion. in addition, the all wheel drive was not functioning properly. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who reset the code. when the three failure codes came back, it was diagnosed that one of the three banks needed to be replaced for the catalytic converter on the front driver side. the vehicle was not repaired. the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign numbers: 14v700000 (air bags), 14v353000 (air bags), and 14v351000 (air bags). the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 173,000.

I have contacted honda via the 800 number and the local dealer to get the airbag replaced but they say the car is not covered because it is not registered in a humid southern state (it is registered in virginia, which actually has very hot and humid summers). i told them that i frequently travel to the south and asked for the data and science on how much exposure causes the screws in the airbag to rust and become dangerous - they have nothing to provide but "an estimate." i want my airbag replaced under the recall which is supposed to cover all 2006 ridgelines. i am not comfortable driving the vehicle now, knowing that a number of the faulty airbag deployments and injuries actually took place outside the states covered by the recall. i have also notified my attorney of my concern and my attempts to get help from honda. *tr

Honda send already 3 safety recall notices in more than a year close to 2 years. and they still no got the spare parts.

Nhtsa recall 14v-351, safety recall letter dated april 2015. i have called the local honda dealership (brannon honda - birmingham al) many times since april 2015 and every time they claim that honda has not sent them the parts to fix these death dealing air bags. apparently, the nhtsa is merely an afterthought to honda! how is one supposed to get the problem with these air bag systems corrected???

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda ridgeline. the contact was in the emergency lane when a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction crashed into his vehicle head on. the driver and passenger side air bags did not deploy. the vehicle was destroyed. the driver was injured and transported to the hospital. a police report was filed. the dealer nor manufacturer were notified. the failure and current mileage was 68,000.

I was involve on an accident where the other car failed to yield at a stop sign and t-bone my honda ridgeline truck. side airbag never deployed. i was going around 35-40 mph and in my opinion he was going at least 25-30mph. called honda and said that they do not have any recall for this problem. they should. *tr

2006 honda ridgeline 55-60 mph impact to my drivers side front end my drivers side airbags did deployed but passenger did causing injuries during the crash. i'm very concerned why the airbags did not deploy on the side of impact, the driver side. this leaves me rather curious over finding an explanation as to what happened? what will you need to know to determine whether this may be a trend or flaw in the safety of the new ridgeline or some other reasonable explanation? *tr
