I CONTACTED HONDA DEALER ON 6 APRIL 2016, REGARDING ISSUES WITH FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR. NOW AFTER MORE THAN THREE MONTHS (90 DAYS) I STILL HAVE NOT GOT MY CAR FIXED, AND IT HAS CAUSED MANY INCONVENIENCES TO MY FAMILY. YES, THEY HAVE PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR BUT WE WANT OUR OWN VEHICLE BACK AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY DAUGHTER'S CAR WAS RECALLED. WE CALLED A DEALER IN DALLAS, TX WHERE THE VEHICLE IS WITH HER AT SCHOOL. SHE IS NOW DRIVING A RENTAL CAR UNTIL HER CAR CAN BE FIXED DUE TO THE RECALL. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL JULY. THE CAR IS PARKED AT HER COLLEGE FOR THE TIME BEING. WE RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT WE ARE RELOCATING DUE TO MY JOB, ON OR ABOUT MAY 19, 2016. THE CAR CAN NOT BE DRIVEN DUE TO THE RECALL SO I CONTACTED HONDA TO SEE IF THEY WOULD PAY TO TRANSPORT THE VEHICLE FROM DALLAS TO TRUSSVILLE, ALABAMA WHERE WE WILL BE LIVING. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL TODAY AND THE GENTLEMAN TOLD ME THAT HONDA WILL NOT BE PAYING TO TRANSPORT THE VEHICLE. WE CAN NOT DRIVE IT....HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GET IT TO ALABAMA? IT'S NOT OUR FAULT THAT THERE IS A RECALL...I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD DO SOMETHING TO ACCOMODATE US. THE HAVE OFFERED NO SOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STAY ON THE SCHOOL'S PROPERTY FOR MUCH LONGER....OUR DAUGHTER IS GRADUATING ON MAY 14TH...THEN WE WILL HEAD TO ALABAMA. PLEASE HELP US FIGURE OUT HOW TO TRANSPORT THE VEHICLE....WE CANNOT AFFORD TO TRANSPORT IT OURSELVES.

TAKATA RECALL ITHACA CARSHARE IS A SMALL NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION SERVING 1,400 COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH 25 VEHICLES AVAILABLE FOR SELF-SERVE RESERVATIONS ON A 24/7 BASIS. SIX OF THESE VEHICLES ARE HONDA FITS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA RECALL. FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR MEMBERS AND LIABILITY PURPOSES, WE REMOVED THESE VEHICLES FROM SERVICE ON APRIL 4, 2016. WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH BOTH OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND HONDA CORPORATE MULTIPLE TIMES, AND THUS FAR BOTH HAVE REFUSED TO PROVIDE ANY COMPENSATION FOR THE LOSS OF REVENUE CAUSED BY THESE VEHICLES BEING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. EACH VEHICLE REQUIRES INSTALLATION OF SPECIALTY HARDWARE FOR OUR USE, SO SUBSTITUTE VEHICLES PROVIDED BY HONDA (WHICH HAVE NOT BEEN OFFERED) ARE NOT AN OPTION FOR US. AS EACH DAY GOES BY, WE LOSE $250-300 IN REVENUE, SO AS OF THIS WRITING WE HAVE LOST OVER $3,000. AS A SMALL NON-PROFIT, THIS RECALL HAS A HUGE EFFECT ON OUR BUDGET. WE EXPECT THAT OUR LOSSES WILL TOTAL AT LEAST $10,000, IF NOT MORE. FAILURE OF HONDA TO PROVIDE COMPENSATION FOR THIS LOSS IS BOTH INCONVENIENT AND UNACCEPTABLE. WE CONTINUE TO SEEK COMPENSATION FOR THIS LOSS AND REQUEST ANY ASSISTANCE YOU MAY OFFER ON OUR BEHALF.

"TAKATA RECALL" THIS WEEKEND I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE AND WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP I FIND I CAN HAVE A RENTAL CAR, BUT IT COMES WITH RESTRICTIONS. IF MY CAR IS UNSAFE I NEED A COMPARABLE VEHICLE NOW. I CALLED THE HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION OF AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO NUMBER THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE NOTICE, BUT IT WILL BE A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE THEY CAN GET BACK TO ME. AGAIN, IF THIS CAR IS UNSAFE, I NEED ANOTHER VEHICLE, BUT COMPARABLE VEHICLE WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS, NOW. I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT, BUT I NOW DREAD THIS BECOMING A NOTIFICATION FROM A NEXT OF KIN.
