I RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR (2016) THAT THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG COULD IF INFLATED RUPTURE AND KILL THE DRIVER. THE LETTER INDICATED THAT REPLACEMENT PARTS AND REPAIRS WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY THE SUMMER. HAVING HEARD NOTHING ELSE, I CONTACTED HONDA ON 9/23/16 TO INQUIRE FURTHER AND WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE ANOTHER TWO WEEKS. TODAY, 10/28/16 I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO FURTHER INFORMATION AS TO WHEN THE REPAIR PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE, AND REPAIRS AFFECTED. NO OTHER EFFORT ON BEHALF OF HONDA HAS BEEN MADE TO ADDRESS CONCERNS AS TO OUR SAFETY, AS WE ARE STILL AT RISK IN USING THIS VEHICLE AND NO OTHER OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE TO US. *TR

HAD TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE AXLE REPLACED. I WAS HAVING THE OIL CHANGE AND IT WAS POINTED OUT TO ME THE AXLE UNDER THE VIBRATION DAMPER WAS SEVERELY RUSTED. RUST WAS SO BAD AS TO HAVE CAUSED THE VIBRATION DAMPER TO SPLIT IN SEVERAL PLACES. YOU COULD "DIG" A SCREW DRIVER INTO THE RUST. PERSON RECOMMENDED HAVING THE AXLE REPLACED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. BROUGHT THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND MECHANIC CONFIRMED AXLE WAS SEVERELY RUSTED. CAR HAS 154000 MILES ON ODOMETER. *TR

TAKATA RECALL THE LETTER WE RECEIVED FROM HONDA IN MARCH 2016 STATED, "THE REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT DRIVER'S AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN THE SUMMER OF 1016. HONDA WILL SEND YOU ANOTHER LETTER WHEN PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE." WE NEVER RECEIVED ANOTHER LETTER, BUT HEARD FROM A FRIEND THAT SHE CALLED HER DEALER AND GOT THE REPLACEMENT INSTALLED. WE CONTACTED OUR DEALER WHO INSTALLED A REPLACEMENT OCTOBER 13TH. HOWEVER, I SUSPECT THAT OTHER PERSONS ARE WAITING FOR ANOTHER LETTER FROM HONDA AND HAVE NOT HAD A REPLACEMENT YET.

TAKATA RECALL...WHEN ARE MY AIRBAGS GOING TO BE REPLACED? WHY DO I HAVE TO DRIVE DAY AFTER DAY KNOWING MY AIRBAGS CAN EXPLODE AND KILL ME?

TAKATA RECALL: TAKATA RECALL. I OWN A 2008 HONDA FIT.I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V344000REGARDING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG PROBLEM. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL LOCAL HONDA DEALERS - NO ONE HAS THE PARTS! WHAT IS HONDA WAITING FOR, MORE DEATHS? I CAN'T PUT ANYONE IN MY PASSENGER SEAT. IT HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR - THIS IS TAKING TOO LONG - IT IS AN UNREASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO WAIT FOR REPAIR OF A DEADLY DEFECT.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA IN MID JULY SAYING THAT I NEEDED TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO HAVE MY AIR BAG SERVICED. I CALLED 7/17/16 TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT. IT ALSO STATED TO NOT ALLOW ANY PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL THE REPAIR WAS MADE. I AM STILL WAITING FOR MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO GET THE PART. IT HAS BEEN 90 DAYS SINCE I CALLED AND MADE THE REQUEST. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH HONDA NUMEROUS TIMES AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THE PART FRO MY CAR. THE NOTICE I RECEIVED SAID I COULD FIE A COMPLAINT AFTER 60 DAYS AND I DECIDED TO GIVE THEM SOME ADDITIONAL TIME BEFORE MAKING THE COMPLAINT. I AM TIRED OF WAITING AND NOT BEING ABLE TO HAVE PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT SEAT. IT HAS BEEN A REAL INCONVENIENCE.
