Takara recall. It was in motion down campwisdom rd in dallas tx 75249 heading towards cedar ridge rd. Last part I remember is stop sign by the nature school. I had just left my parents . Put my seat belt on at the stop sign I had forgot remembering at stop sign. Made a right turn on camp wisdom and just before passing power plant is last I remember . I looked down at the speedometer which read 35 mphtill it was like 3 hours later and everything just faded in and was in a car with my dad in passenger seat. When I became aware the next day I tried to remember what happened and I had out of body experience saw myself walking down the road just above it and what we depict as jesus pointing at me walking then I came to in car with my dad.went back to look at vehicle it hit a tree in front and the side. It was missing a tire from driver side rear. Air bags didn't deploy at all as should have. It was in the middle of a curve from what I can tell and tire popped off the rim. This was in 2013. No one was with me but one person witnessed it and during my unaware period let me use their phone to call my dad. They worked as receptionist at wycliffe linguistics center. I might be wrong on date but year is correct I can find out what day and month for sure later on because I had work done on it at motion auto my dad paid for it was a door windshield had to bend frame back as best as could I also sold this car later that year which I believe he junked it.

I purchased my honda and it was a wreck and repair but all that was damaged was pass door and fender no airbags deployed but front seat belts have never worked they are locked .when the takada airbag recall came I took my 2001 honda accord to hinda of morristown tn and told them are bout the seat belt issue as well and they said the airbags had to have been deployed are bound becauwe of that they would not warranty the seat belts it would cost me 1200.00 and nor only that but when I asked if they repaired the takada air bag issue they didn't say yes or no I called back asked for a invoice as to what they did to my car and was denied .so I may still be in danger of that recall and the sad part is I have a small child that I have in my vehicle

Takata recall repairs and replacement to my 2001 honda accord were effected on 2/22/16. On 5/3/16 I was braking for a red light when I heard a loud pop sound followed by a stinging pain in my left arm. When I turned to look at my arm I noticed the airbag from the left side of my car seat had deployed and was now hanging deflated next to me. The air bag left a red welt, it didn't bruise me and the redness only lasted a couple of days. I called my father and he advised me not to drive the car. We had it towed to our mechanic who advised us to take it back to the dealer. A service manager at long beach honda looked at the deployed air bag and said the car had been in an accident. We asked him to take a closer look at the vehicle. When he discovered no damage to the body of the car he got down on all fours, looked under the driver's side of car, stood up, and said there were smudges on the undercarriage. When I informed him I didn't run over anything, he said the best he could do was repair the air bag and reset the sensors for about $1,000. We left and contacted honda and told them what happened. A representative at honda said he would contact the dealership and authorize an inspection of the vehicle. We dropped the vehicle off on 5/16/16 at 8:30am and they contacted us around 5:00pm that same day and said that they had completed the inspection. The technican said he discovered the front passenger side tire appeared to have been pushed into the tire well at some point and because some screws on the steering arm were newer, repairs had been made. We told him it still didn't explain why one airbag deployed on the opposite side of the car. He said it was because the passenger seat was empty. When we asked why the steering wheel air bag didn't deploy he said the sensors decide which airbags to trigger. We realized all they were looking for was a reason get out of it.

As crazy as it sounds ,I just had the takata recalled air bag replaced several weeks ago in my honda from takata. Today november 6th I was involved in a front end collision going around 35mph on a state highway. The new replaced air bag on the drivers side steering wheel never deployed but the passenger air bag did deploy. The tow truck driver said he has never seen just a passenger air bag go off and not the drivers bag go off to. The drivers air bag never deployed is there a problem with this new air bag from takata not going off or an installation issue?. The air bag was replaced by smart honda dealership in des moines iowa several week ago. The car is at impound right now at the towing company it is not going anywhere because of the damage to the car. There is a police report of the accident...thx

To honda corporation re: recall department on june 19 2014 I was driving my 2001 honda accord coupe when I was suddenly hit by a delivery truck who was trying to make an illegal left turn in front of me. My car was total. The front side and passenger side of my car are totally demolished. The irony of it all is that, the front and the side air bag failed to deploy. And as the result I was severely injured without the protection of the air bag. On march 2015 which is almost a year after my accident I received an air bag recall letter from honda corporation. I should have received the warning and recall letter before my accident which is june 19 20014. Honda corporation is responsible for my injuries for making a defaulted air bag and failed to warn me about the situation before my accident. I am asking the maker of honda to pay for my outstanding medical bills which is incurred due to the accident. I still have my honda. Honda corporation refuse to reply to my letter. That's why I am making this complaint to the honda corporation truly [xxx] VIN unavailable information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
