TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR IS ONE OF THE CARS FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAG ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. I WAS TOLD THAT HONDA ONLY COVERS THE RENTAL CARS FOR THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAGS AND WILL NOT BE COVERING IF THE DRIVER SIDE WAS FIXED AND THE PASSENGER HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. SO I CAN STILL DRIVE MY CAR BUT HONDA RECOMMENDS NOT TO HAVE SOMEONE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THIS PREVENTS ME FROM DRIVING/CARPOOLING MORE THAN 3 PASSENGERS AS WELL AS THE METAL SHARDS FROM THE PASSENGER AIRBAG CAN STILL POTENTIALLY HIT THE DRIVER IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. IS HONDA AND OTHER COMPANIES ALLOWED TO ONLY COVER THE RENTAL CAR FOR THE DRIVER SIDE AND NOT THE PASSENGER PASSING ON THE LIABILITY TO THE CAR OWNER IF THE PASSENGER WAS TO GET HURT DUE TO THE RECALL?

STEERING
ON MY 2009 HONDA FIT SPORT WITH APPROXIMATELY 25,000 MILES, THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH ILLUMINATED AND THE POWER STEERING ASSIST STOPPED WORKING WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A PUBLIC HIGHWAY. I STOPPED AND TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND THE EPS RESET ITSELF AND SHORTLY TRIPPED OUT AGAIN AND AGAIN. I CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALER AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT PROBLEMS LIKE THIS ARE RARE.

MY 2009 HONDA SPORT IS RED. THE PAINT IS FADING ALL OVER....SO MUCH THAT IT APPEARS PINK IN MANY PLACES. THIS IS NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF WHAT HONDA'S DO. I AM HOPEFUL THAT HONDA WILL COVER COSTS FOR REPAINTING THE VEHICLE.

POWER STEERING TURNS OFF AND ON RANDOMLY, STEERING TROUBLE LIGHT COMES ON WITHIN A FEW SECONDS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, STEERING BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT. IF IT HAPPENS WHILE TURNING, STEERING WHEEL CAN JERK OUT OF YOUR HANDS. HAPPENS MUCH MORE OFTEN WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS HOT. OCCURS RANDOMLY, WHILE MOVING OR NOT.
