Takata recall: I was advised that it would possibly take longer than a 3 month wait until the repair kit even arrived at the facility due to the fact that they "don't make that vehicle any more" and was told to have my family of 4 ride in the rear seats for safety issue. It is a 4 seat vehicle. Have left message with service manager an no response. This time frame is unacceptable and if in an accident, according to the video on your website, could cause injury or death to my family.

Takata recall my complaint is that we received the letter from Honda in July 2016 about the air bag recall. The letter advises us to avoid having a passenger sit in the front seat. That it's not yet repaired is just aggravating. For six months, we've had to avoid a front seat passenger, or feel guilty about them sitting there. This has curtailed our use of and enjoyment of our vehicle. The letter shifted responsibility from takata and Honda -- to us, the car owner. This is not right.

The contact owns a 2011 Honda Element. The contact stated that while driving at 65 mph, she had noticed that an extension ladder and debris had landed in the middle of the road. In order to avoid the objects, the contact and the driver behind her attempted to make the same turn at the same time into the right lane which caused a collision. The driver and passenger air bags failed to deploy upon collision. The driver side seat belt also failed to release upon depression of the driver seat belt button. Due to the failure, the contact was trapped in the driver seat and had to be cut out of the vehicle by the county roadside assistance. Both drivers were treated at the scene and had their vitals taken, neither driver needed further medical assistance. A police report was filed at scene. Due to the accident, the vehicle was towed to an independent auto body shop where it remained under investigation. The dealer nor the manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 165,000.

Takata recall: replaced driver side airbag 2 yrs ago when news broke. Dealer would not replace passenger side as Honda America refused to pay for it. Now Honda issues recall on passenger side airbag, stating no one should sit in passenger seat until repair. Called dealer, Honda America has not stocked parts. So essentially they ignored danger two years ago, and by saying don't sit there, are trying to blame vehicle owners and duck lawsuits. And didn't stock enough parts? sounds like they want cars off the road, do not want to fix, and are putting people in danger.
