Takata recall- I took my honda in for two safety recalls (airbags; 15v‑320 and 15v‑370) at holman honda. I received a phone call stating the the airbag light was on and the right airbag impact sensor needed to be replaced for $357.00. No lights were on when I dropped off the car... I'm concerned about this dealerships practices and charges for free safety recalls. My vehicle still feels unsafe!
We have had the takata airbags replaced by the honda dealer in bow, nh. However, our airbags are still not functioning as indicated by the airbag light still being on and the diagnositce later run (at our request) by the dealer. The dealer now ways that there is a defect in our seatbelt which is disabling the airbags. We thought the seatbelts were warrantied against defect but the dealer claims it is not. Please assist.
"takata recall" we own 2 hondas involved in the recall. The airbags were replaced on both vehicles. The SRS light is illuminated on both vehicles since the airbag was replaced. Rt. 23 honda, pompton plains, nj replaced the airbags. They want $300 for each vehicle to fix this problem that they say is not related to the airbag replacement. We feel this must be related to the replacement. Seems unlikely that 2 vehicles after replacement would have the same problem. I will submit a second form since there are 2 VIN numbers involved. I last spoke to the dealer about this on 4/21/2016.
Takata recalls we have never received anything stating if our vehicle has been recalled or not. Everything I read says it has & we will receive notification. Well when will that happen, when an airbag explodes & hurts someone?
Takata recall. I have recieved mutiple letters concerning my air bag recall have had the care up there and have been told it's fixed, and I still get letters that it hasn't been fixed. Also the passenger air bag light has stayed on multiple times and they said they fixed but yet when I would go no more than 2 miles down the road it would come back on also the dealership I took it to did a multi point inspection and said my parking break was fine but little did they know my parking break doesn't work so how did it operate fine if I know good and well it doesn't. Will never do business with honda again
Srs light on for years. Told it was nothing to worry about. Then honda says it is a serious safety issue, I have to pay hundreds of dollars for repair. Transmission went out cost over $2500 so far, car still isn't working. Well known problem but honda is greedy and won't pay to fix their unsafe vehicles. Car overheats when using the heater. Driver seat feels like it is going to move while driving. I will never buy a honda ever again.

I checked the site using my VIN number and it keeps saying recall incomplete. I called the place I bought the car to see about a recall for the airbags and they never got back to me. I would like to know if my car is safe to drive and I don't understand what incomplete recall means. Another site said my car has 2 recalls, but I never received information on this. What do I have to do next to make sure my car is safe to drive?

Took vehicle to honda dealer 11/14/2014 for airbag recall. They only replaced the passenger side airbag. "inspected driver airbag. Found is autoliv. Airbag is okay". Why would the driver's airbag not need replacing?? This bothers me greatly. Do you have a simple answer? (note: date above on item 2 is incorrect - could not fix)

My son was driving my car new years eve he was parked at a local donut shop and decided to move the vehicle to another spot . As he was backing out the rear window was not fully defrosted and he hit another parked car. He was doing less then 10 miles an hour and my air bags deployed. Causing my car to be totaled due to the cost. I'm having it repaired as I do love my car but it should not have deployed at this low a speed. 3000 for air bags that I should have gotten a recall on and fixed it just wrong. I am the original owner of this vehicle.
