AIR BAGS
AFTER HAVING COMPLETED A RECALL FOR BOTH AIR BAGS ON MY CAR, I RECEIVED A SECOND RECALL NOTICE FROM AMERICAN HONDA STATING IN BOLD AND UNDERLINE THAT "EVEN IF YOUR VEHICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED, YOUR VEHICLE IS STILL COVERED BY THIS RECALL AND WILL NEED TO BE REPAIRED AGAIN." AFTER CHECKING THE WEBSITE SHOWING CURRENT RECALLS (FINDING NONE), CALLING MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND CALLING AMERICAN HONDA (BOTH CHECKING THE SAME DATABASE), I AM TOLD THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I AM DISAPPOINTED IN HAVING TO SPEND THIS MUCH TIME CHECKING INTO THIS POSSIBLE INCORRECT STATEMENT. IF, FOR SOME REASON THIS RECALL NOTICE IS CORRECT AND NOT IN THE VIN DATABASE CORRECTLY, I WANTED TO RECORD IN YOUR DATABASE THAT I DID EVERYTHING I COULD TO GET THIS RECALL COMPLETED. IF THE DATABASE IS ACCURATE THEN THIS STATEMENT MUST BE CHANGED ON FUTURE RECALL NOTICES... UPDATED 09/30/15*BF

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I AM UNABLE TO INSERT KEY INTO DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND AS A RESULT CAN NOT OPEN THE DOOR TO GET IN. I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE PASSENGER SIDE, OPEN THE DOOR TO DRIVER'S SIDE. DRIVER SIDE FRONT DOOR LOCK DOES NOT TURN AND WE ARE STRANDED AS THE DOOR DOESN'T OPEN. I AM HOPING TO CALL HONDA AND SUGGEST THEY HAVE A RECALL AS THIS LOOK LIKE WIDE-SPREAD ISSUE BASED ON THE FEEDBACK ON THE WEB.

AIR BAGS
WE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA FOR THE TAKATA AIR BAG IN THIS VEHICLE EARLIER THIS YEAR. MY DAUGHTER, WHO DRIVES THIS VEHICLE, CONTACTED AUTOPARK HONDA 3630 OLD RALEIGH RD, CARY, NC 27511 (919) 467-4747 IN EARLY MARCH AND WAS TOLD THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND THEY WOULD CONTACT HER WITHIN TWO WEEKS WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. SHE DID NOT GET A CALL BACK. SHE CALLED AGAIN MID APRIL. SAME STORY. I CALLED ON MONDAY JUNE 8 AND TALKED A PERSON IN SERVICE. SHE SAID THEY HAD NO RECORD OF ANY PREVIOUS CONTACTS ABOUT THIS. SHE CHECKED FOR MY DAUGHTER'S NAME AND PHONE NUMBER AND ADDRESS AND FOR MY NAME, NUMBER AND ADDRESS AND FOUND NO MATCHES. SINCE IT HAS BEEN THREE MONTHS SINCE WE STARTED THIS RECALL PROCESS AND THE LOCAL DEALER HAS NOT BEEN EFFECTIVE, I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT TO SEE IF WE CAN GET SOME HELP. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY DAUGHTER'S SAFETY DRIVING THIS VEHICLE, WHICH SHE USES TO GET TO AND FROM HER JOB AND FOR OTHER TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO RECORD OF HER PREVIOUS CONTACTS. I PLAN TO CALL AGAIN TOMORROW TO GIVE THEM THE VIN NUMBER SINCE I DID NOT HAVE IT WITH ME WHEN I LAST CALLED. BUT I WANT TO BE ON RECORD THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN UNSATISFACTORY RESULT FOR A SAFETY RECALL.

ON 2/14/2015 I TOOK MY HONDA CRV TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR. I WAS TOLD THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED AS SOON AS THEY WERE RECEIVED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THESE PARTS ARE STILL UNAVAILABLE WITH NO KNOWN AVAILABILITY DATE. I NO LONGER FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY CRV REALIZING THAT A SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME. THE INFORMATION I WOULD REQUEST FROM HONDA IS: WHAT IS THE TIMELINE FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE AIRBAG INFLATORS ( IT NOW APPEARS THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE IS ALSO INVOLVED) AND IF THIS IS EXCESSIVE WHAT WOULD BE THE INTERIM SOLUTION. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS FOR THE HONDA RECALL SINCE EARLY FEBRUARY. OUR DEALER, HAS RECEIVED ONE OF THE TWO AIRBAGS BUT HAS NO IDEA WHEN THE OTHER WILL BE IN. WAS TOLD TODAY THAT POSSIBLE RELEASE DATE FOR PART WAS LATE JUNE OR JULY. HONDA HAS PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR BUT WILL NOT COVER THE INSURANCE. I HAVE TO EXCHANGE THE CAR EVERY 30 DAYS SO THAT MY PRIVATE INSURANCE WILL COVER THE RENTAL CAR. OTHERWISE IT WOULD BE ~$40 A WEEK. THAT IS OVER $500 FOR THEIR PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT 5 MONTHS IS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR REPAIR OF THESE CRITICAL SAFETY COMPONENTS! *TR
