TODAY I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM HONDA OF IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL TELLING ME THAT THE DRIVER'S FRONT AIR BAG INFLATOR IN MY CAR CAN INJURE OR KILL. THE EMAIL INSTRUCTION PROVIDED BY HONDA TO CONTACT HONDA DOES NOT ACHIEVE CONTACT; IT SEEMS TO BE PROVIDED AS A CYA PROVISION INSTEAD OF A BONA FIDE EFFORT TO MAKE MY CAR SAFE.

MY TAKATA AIR BAG HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE BY HONDA RECALLS. UNFORTUNATELY, THE REPLACEMENT AIRBAG IS ANOTHER TAKATA AIRBAG. DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? MY QUESTION IS: WHY IS HONDA REPLACING DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIRBAGS WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS? SINCE TAKATA IS CONTINUING TO MANUFACTURE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THE AIRBAG IN MY HONDA. SHOULDN'T HONDA USE ANOTHER AIRBAG MANUFACTURED BY ANOTHER COMPANY TO REPLACE THE TAKATA AIRBAG.

I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT. I AM REPORTING HONDA BECAUSE THEY LIED TO ME AND SAID MY CAR WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. ABOUT 2 MONTHS AFTER THE AIRBAG RECALL BECAME PUBLIC I CALLED THEM TO ASK IF MY CAR WAS ON THE RECALL. I WAS INSTANTLY TOLD IT WAS NOT. I JUST TODAY WENT TO THIS SITE ONLINE AND LOOKED IT UP AND FIND IT IS. I BELIEVE HONDA WAS INVOLVED IN A DELIBERATE COVER-UP. *TR

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLARES UPON ACCELERATION BETWEEN 1ST TO 2ND GEAR/2ND TO 3RD GEAR. ODBII CODES P0730, P0740. THIS IS MY SECOND TRANSMISSION. THE FIRST TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED UNDER A SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT, HOWEVER THE SAME ISSUES ARE ARISING YET AGAIN. *TR
