RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA REGARDING PASSENGER AIRBAGS. IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER ON 7/7/2016 TO ARRANGE REPAIRS. HAD REPAIRS SCHEDULED FOR 7/15/2016. APPOINTMENT WAS CANCELLED DUE TO PARTS BEING ON BACK-ORDER. FOLLOWED-UP WITH LOCAL DEALER ON 7/19/2016 FOR UPDATED STATUS. DEALER COULD NOT GIVE ESTIMATE WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. LOCAL DEALER HAS BEEN VERY PROFESSIONAL AND POLITE, DESCRIBING THE SITUATION. UNFORTUNATELY, MY HONDA IS NOT SAFE PER NHTSA RECALL 16V-344 AND IS CAUSING A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. ADDITIONALLY, HONDA DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. AS A LONG TIME HONDA OWNER (1996), I AM DISAPPOINTED.

I OWN A 2006 CRV WITH UNDER 33000 MILES, I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS VEHICLE AS I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. SO ALL OF A SUDDEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VSA, ABS, ENGINE, TPS (TRIANGLE EXPLANATION POINT SYMBOL) AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND I'M TOLD THE VSA MODULE NEEDS REPLACING! COSTING $2400. WOW! THAT'S EXPENSIVE. I THINK THIS PART SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED CONSIDERING THE SEVERITY! THIS PART IS VITAL AND HOW HAS $2400 BURNING A WHOLE IN THERE POCKET? PLEASE HELP! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
THE VSA AND ABS LIGHTS ON MY 2006 CR-V CAME ON UPON STARTING AND STAYED ON UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS STOPPED. THIS HAPPENED EVERY TIME THE CAR WAS STARTED. MY HONDA DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM TO BE A FAULTY ABS MODULATOR UNIT. THE STATED REPLACEMENT COST IS $2,400, INCLUDING LABOR. I FEEL THAT THIS DEFECT IS ESSENTIAL IN ENSURING THE OVERALL SAFETY OF THIS CAR. THE WEIGHT OF THE CAR IS SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH THAT AN UNCONTROLLED SKID IS MUCH MORE LIKELY TO END IN DISASTER THAN A SKID THAT IS STOPPED WITH THE VSA AND ABS FUNCTION WORKING PROPERLY. LIVING IN CENTRAL OHIO, THE ABS AND VSA FUNCTIONS ARE USED FREQUENTLY - ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER. THESE KEY SAFETY FEATURES WERE A TOP PRIORITY IN MY DECISION TO BUY THIS CAR. WHILE THE CAR'S LIFE EXPECTANCY IS TOUTED TO BE AROUND 300,000 MILES, IT IS UNFORGIVABLE FOR SUCH A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY FUNCTION TO FAIL AT ONLY 102,000 MILES. I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD RECALL THESE CARS AND REPLACE THE VSA MODULATOR UNIT ENTIRELY AT HONDA'S EXPENSE. AND FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE ALREADY PAID FOR THE REPAIR - REIMBURSE THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE REPAIR! THE CAR WITHOUT VSA AND ABS IS NOT AT ALL THE SAME "AS ADVERTISED" WHEN SOLD NEW!

THE RED AIR-BAG INDICATOR BEGAN GLOWING STEADY RED ON MARCH 22, 2016. ON MARCH 28, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO CHECK ON THE PROBLEM. THEIR DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT INDICATES "INTERNAL FAILURE OF SRS UNIT". THIS PART APPARENTLY TELLS THE AIRBAG SYSTEM WHETHER OR NOT SOMEONE IS SITTING IN EITHER / BOTH OF THE FRONT. THE DEALER'S TECHNICIAN SAID THAT THE BAG 'MAY OR MAY NOT DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT' AND IT IS 'NOT LIKELY' THAT THE AIRBAG WILL DEPLOY WHILE I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. APPARENTLY, HONDA DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS SENSOR AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE SAFETY SYSTEM. I CAN HAVE A NEW UNIT INSTALLED FOR $574.95. I WAS ALSO REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC, $112.30, SINCE THIS IS A PART THE MANUFACTURER DOES NOT COVER. I FEEL THAT AS THIS SENSOR IS A PART THAT THE CONSUMER DOES NOT MAINTAIN AND IS AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE SAFETY SYSTEM, AS IT CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. I BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD PAY FOR THIS REPAIR TO THE SAFETY SYSTEM AS WELL AS REIMBURSE ME FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST. BOTH THE DRIVER AND THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS MAY BE AFFECTED IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. THEREFORE, I WISH TO FILE A SAFETY COMPLAINT AGAINST HONDA, LEJEUNE HONDA CARS IN JACKSONVILLE, NC FOR FAILURE TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY SYSTEM.
