Description of the problem	After hearing a noise coming from the steering wheel (such as a clicking noise or squeaking), turning it left and/or right, i took it to the honda dealership on 08/20/2013. The dealership removed the steering wheel and determined that the cable reel for the air bag was defective and needed to be replaced. The dealership did not return the vehicle to me for "safety" until the part was to be replaced (and the steering console had been disassembled). The dealer replaced the cable reel on the car. 2 months after the repair, i started hearing the same noise turning the steering wheel left/right. I took the car back to the dealer on 12/26/2013 with the same complaint. The dealer inspection determined that the cable reel needed to be replaced again (5,484 miles). The dealer indicated that they would not disassemble the steering console, they would order the replacement part and i would have to bring the vehicle in again for the replacement when the part arrives (this is the second repair in less than 6 months). I asked the dealership why this was a recurring issue? They indicated that the manufacturer provided them with the part and they are replacing it according to the manufacturer's instructions. If the issue happens for a third time, they will report this to american honda for possible engineering issue and recall.
