AIR BAGS
IT SURE IF IT IS A TAKAYUKI INFLATORS RECALL - BUT THE NOTICE FROM HONDA INDICATED THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATER SUMMER OR FALL. IT IS NOW LATE DECEMBER AND I HAVE LOST THE USE OF MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITH NO UPDATE AS TO WHEN THIS WILL BE RECTIFIED. I HAVE OWNED 6 HONDAS AND THIS MAY BE THE LAST. IT IS PATHETIC THAT WE CANNOT EVEN GET AN UPDATE. I WANT A CAR WHERE ALL THE SEATS ARE USABLE!!!

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL TANK IS LEAKING. TOOK INTO LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID THE FUEL TANK HAD A CRACK AT THE SEAM WHERE THE INLET TUBE ATTACHES TO THE TANK. THEY WANT $951 TO REPLACE TANK, I SAID NO BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY. WHEN I GOT HOME I CHECK THE INTERNET & FOUND OUT HONDA HAD A ISSUE WITH THIS AND THEY HAD ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS OR 120,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM IS THEY DIDN'T NOTIFY US OF THIS PROBLEM. NOW WE HAVE THE PROBLEM BUT OUR CAR HAS 148,700 MILES. THEY WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AT NO CHARGE. I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN GOING ON BECAUSE WE PARKED THE CAR OUTSIDE. WHEN THE RECENT RAINS ARRIVED WE STARTED PARKING OUR CAR IN THE GARAGE & THAT'S WHEN WE SMELLED A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL IN THE GARAGE. THIS OCCURRED DURING THE FIRST 2 WEEKS OF DECEMBER 2016. THE DEALER INFORMED US THAT WE SHOULDN'T DRIVE THE CAR & WE SHOULD NOT FILL THE GAS TANK OVER 50% FULL THAT WAY WE SHOULDN'T LOSE ANY GAS. NOTICE THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE.

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 REPLACEMENT VEHICLE TO USE UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS FIXED. HONDA IS NOT OFFERING TO GIVE ME A REPLACEMENT VEHICLE!!!! I CANNOT PUT A PASSENGER IN MY VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF CAUSING THEIR DEATH IF THERE SHOULD BE A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW? I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA, GONE REPEATEDLY TO SAFERCAR.GOV, AND I AM GETTING NO RESPONSE! HELP PLEASE!

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
SUNVISOR SPLITS APART. WARRANTY EXTENSION 7 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES VIA SERVICE BULLITIN 11-031 DATED 10MAY11. HONDA DID NOT SEND NOTICE TO OWNER. VISOR REPLACED 16JUL10 UNDER ORIGINAL WARRANTY. VEHICLE HAS ONLY 44,000 MILES. REPLACEMENT VISOR HAS AGAIN SPLIT APART AND JUST HANGS DOWN, BLOCKING VISION. HONDA STATES IT WILL NOT REPLACE VISOR AS THE VEHICLE IS MORE THAN 7 YEARS OLD. HONDA USED DEFECTIVE VISORS IN ITS NEW VEHICLES, AND THEN REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE VISORS WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PARTS. HONDA SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE THE VISORS WITH PARTS THAT ARE NOT DEFECTIVE.

TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A LETTER JULY 2016 ABOUT THE RECALL. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP, PERFORMANCE KINGS HONDA AND WAS TOLD I WAS "ON THE LIST." I CALLED BACK TODAY, 11/11/16, AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART TO FIX IT AND WOULDN'T HAVE IT UNTIL JUNE 2017. I LOOK ON YOUR WEBSITE AND SEE THAT ALL THESE RECALLS ARE BEING FIXED...WHY IS IT THAT PERFORMANCE KINGS HONDA WILL NOT HAVE THE PART IN UNTIL 2017? THAT IS TOO LONG TO WAIT. I HAVE TO DRIVE CLIENTS AS PART OF MY JOB AND AM RISKING THE SAFETY OF OTHERS AND MYSELF.

TAKATA RECALL - THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I CONTINUE TO DRIVE AROUND TERRIFIED THAT I WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT AND MY AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY. I SHOULD FEEL SAFE BECAUSE OF MY AIRBAGS BUT INSTEAD I FEEL FEAR. I KEPT MY CAR IN FLORIDA FROM 2008-2012 AND UNDERSTAND THAT THE HEAT MAY MAKE MY VEHICLE MORE VULNERABLE. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS RESOLVED AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE SO THAT I CAN FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR AND HAVING PASSENGERS WITH ME. THANK YOU. *TR
