I started hearing a knocking noise at the rear of my car. I took it to a repair shop and they said that the tie rod or end and the suspension shock or strut need to be replace. Can you check this out for me so I will be safe driving it. Thank you

Air bag light and speed gage are unreliable.
Takata recall, I was involved in two driver side collisions, the first happened july the second september 13th this year. My airbags did not deploy in either instances both direct impact with driver's side. The first incident my car had a power surge forward over a curb into my property demage to the car and house the airbags did not deploy. Police asked if my airbags deployed I was just grateful they hadn't. On september 13 2017 my car was struck by semi trailer which pushed car into the intersection- demage from my gas tank to head light on driver's side I was stopped at red light light turned green I tried to get away from the semi but the cab of the semi smashed into the driver's side why didn't in both incidents the airbags deploy I was hit by a semi? Did correct the recall are there airbags?
Takita recall I took my 2011 honda to walser honda in burnsville mn. For the recall I was told that the car was on a salvage title and the air bag had deployed so that they would make no repair to my car they took some pictures and showed me the door
Takata recall. The letter from honda came early in the year. It said contact the dealer. Dealers say there is nothing they can do. Need a replacement car until they can fix my car. Call dealers many times.
Takata recall taking way too long ! I do highway driving 100 miles a day & need it fixed now or arrange a loner free of charge asap! I hear a squeeking noise coning from the front of the vehicle at the speed limit of 65 - 70 MPH !
Takata recall - received notice from honda in march 2016. When I tried to set appointment told late summer. It is now 8 months and still no appointment. The odds of my having a major accident with the airbag gets greater each day goes by. This could make for one bad law suit!!!!! Need your help on this matter now. Enough said . Thank you r. Kennedy
Tl* takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 honda cr-z. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v061000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Vin tool confirms parts not available. Updated 12/13/16*lj updated 12/20/16.
Takata recall I received a letter from honda regarding this recall in march of 2016. I consider myself a reasonable man but its been more than 5 months and still no parts available. The letter states the parts will be available in the summer of 2016. My dealer has been less than helpful. Honda corporate has been even less helpful. I am making payments and paying insurance on a vehicle I can't drive. Now the vehicle won't start without a jump and the battery doesn't hold a charge. This recall is a huge financial drain on my family, not to mention an inconvenience and no one seems to care. I have a case number from honda. It took 44 days to finally get [xxx] my case manager on the phone and she hung up on me. It would be nice if honda would compensate the owners of its vehicles for this. But that seems highly unlikely based on how I have been treated thus far. If you can do anything to expedite the completion of the recall I would sincerely appreciate it. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recall, I have called in march to moses honda in huntington wv and told no parts available. Called again in may no parts available. Talked with tucker. Now its september and being given run around. Can you help frank
