| Description of the problem | Driver's front airbag inflator. I have been waiting for almost 3 months dor my driver's front airbag to be replaced due to the recall i received from honda in early march 2016. I took my car for servicing in early may to a honda dealer and my car was put on the waiting list for the driver's front airbag to be replaced but i have yet to hear from the honda dealer regarding this recall. I recently called the dealer to inquire as to when my driver's side airbag would be replaced and i was told they still had not received the parts necessary to repair the recall on my vehicle. I asked how much longer i must wait and i was told they would call me. It's been three weeks since i called and i haven't hear anything. Now i receive another recall in mid july 2016 stating there is another recall on my car with the passenger front airbag which has the same exact problem as the driver's front airbag and that wont be fixed until late summer/fall. I feel very unsafe and uneasy driving my car in its current recall status. I don't think it's right that consumers should place their lives at risk driving unsafe cars. Honda should provide loaner cars until the recall can be completely fixed. Now i can't have anyone sitting int he passenger seat because it is unsafe and i am forced to drive my car in it's current condition because i have no other means of transportation. |
