THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS FOR THE HONDA RECALL SINCE EARLY FEBRUARY. OUR DEALER, HAS RECEIVED ONE OF THE TWO AIRBAGS BUT HAS NO IDEA WHEN THE OTHER WILL BE IN. WAS TOLD TODAY THAT POSSIBLE RELEASE DATE FOR PART WAS LATE JUNE OR JULY. HONDA HAS PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR BUT WILL NOT COVER THE INSURANCE. I HAVE TO EXCHANGE THE CAR EVERY 30 DAYS SO THAT MY PRIVATE INSURANCE WILL COVER THE RENTAL CAR. OTHERWISE IT WOULD BE ~$40 A WEEK. THAT IS OVER $500 FOR THEIR PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT 5 MONTHS IS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF TIME TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR REPAIR OF THESE CRITICAL SAFETY COMPONENTS! *TR

ON 2/14/2015 I TOOK MY HONDA CRV TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR THE FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR. I WAS TOLD THE REPLACEMENT PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AT THAT TIME AND I WOULD BE NOTIFIED AS SOON AS THEY WERE RECEIVED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE MADE SEVERAL CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THESE PARTS ARE STILL UNAVAILABLE WITH NO KNOWN AVAILABILITY DATE. I NO LONGER FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING MY CRV REALIZING THAT A SERIOUS ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR AT ANY TIME. THE INFORMATION I WOULD REQUEST FROM HONDA IS: WHAT IS THE TIMELINE FOR REPLACEMENT OF THE AIRBAG INFLATORS ( IT NOW APPEARS THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE IS ALSO INVOLVED) AND IF THIS IS EXCESSIVE WHAT WOULD BE THE INTERIM SOLUTION. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
