I HAVE BEEN TRYING UNSUCCESSFULLY TO HAVE MY AIR BAGS REPLACED SINCE RECEIVING NOTICE OF THE RECALL. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I NORMALLY RECEIVE SERVICE ON MARCH 30, 2015 AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER AND THEY EXPECTED TO HAVE THE PARTS IN WITHIN 30 DAYS. WHEN I DID NOT HEAR FURTHER FROM THE DEALER (LANDMARK HONDA OF ALEXANDRIA,VA), I CALLED AGAIN ON APRIL 27, 2015 AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PARTS ARE TRICKLING IN DUE TO HIGH DEMAND AND THAT THEY WERE CALLING OWNERS AND REPAIRING VEHICLES AS THE PARTS CAME IN. I INQUIRED IF THERE WAS A PROCESS FOR DETERMINING THE ORDER IN WHICH OWNERS WERE BEING CALLED SUCH AS A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED PROCESS OR A WAITING LIST. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT INFORMATION WAS NOT AVAILABLE. I LIVE IN CAMP SPRINGS, MD AND I HAVE A ROAD TRIP PLANNED FOR MINNEAPOLIS, MN WHICH IS SCHEDULED FOR MAY 10 TO MAY 27, 2015. I THOUGHT THAT MY CAR WOULD'VE BEEN SERVICED IN TIME FOR THIS TRIP. CLEARLY, I AM CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY PASSENGERS AND MYSELF. I JUST READ ABOUT THE ONE DAY WORKSHOP WHICH WAS CONVENED ON APRIL 28, 2015 AND I CAN TELL YOU, THAT HONDA IS NOT DOING ENOUGH TO PROVIDE PARTS FOR TIMELY REPAIRS AND TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THEIR OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V700000 (AIR BAGS) IN JANUARY OF 2015; HOWEVER, THE PARTS NEEDED WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE PARTS WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL PARTS SINCE JANUARY, 2015. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED BY HONDA OF THE RECALL. FORTUNATELY, IT WAS COVERED IN THE NEWS AND I WAS ABLE TO CHECK USING MY VIN. I FEEL THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE, BUT THE DEALER IS NOT ABLE TO TELL ME WHEN THE PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. *TR

I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET RECALL WORK COMPLETED AT HONDA CARS OF BRADENTON ON MY 2004 HONDA CRV FOR OVER 4 MONTHS. I CALLED ON 12/11/14 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AND WAS TOLD THE EARLIEST APPOINTMENT WAS 2-13-15. JUST PRIOR TO THAT APPOINTMENT, I WAS CONTACTED TO INFORM ME THAT THE PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER AND THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THE PARTS CAME IN. TODAY IS APRIL 2, 2015 AND I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THEM. I HAVE RECENTLY SOLD THE VEHICLE AND REPORTED THE NEW OWNER TO HONDA. THE NEW OWNER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL. IT APPEARS THAT A SAFETY RECALL IS NOT THAT IMPORTANT TO HONDA. *TR

SUMMARY: WHILE DRIVING, THE MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH OVERHEATED AND BEGAN TO EMIT A STRONG BURNING ODOR. AFTERWARDS THE LEFT REAR WINDOW FAILED TO OPERATE. SINCE I INITIALLY DID NOT KNOW WHERE THE ODOR WAS COMING FROM, I WENT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIND THE SOURCE OF THE ODOR BUT THEY COULDN'T. AFTER SNIFFING AROUND, I FOUND THE SOURCE OF ODOR, THE MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH. I HAD THE DEALER REMOVE THE FUSE FOR SAFETY REASONS. THE DEALER SAID THE WINDOW REGULATOR HAD FAILED BUT I SUSPECT THE FAILED SWITCH BURNT OUT THE WINDOW MOTOR. I WAS WORRY THAT THE CAR WOULD CATCH ON FIRE. *TR

HAVING RECEIVED OUR RECALL NOTICE TO REPLACE THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIR BAG FROM THE MANUFACTURER, WE CONTACTED OUR LOCAL DEALER TODAY, 3/24/2015. WE WERE DENIED INFORMATION OR DEFERRED FOR QUESTIONS REGARDING INFLATORS USED FOR THE "SIDE-IMPACT" AIR BAGS WHICH ARE BUILT INTO THE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SEATS (WHICH MAY BURST AND CAUSE INJURY TO BACK, SHOULDER OR SPINE). WE WERE TOLD PARTS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR 4 WEEKS, UP TO 2 MONTHS. THIS SEEMS UNREASONABLE FOR AN ISSUE THAT MAY RESULT IN OCCUPANT DEATH FROM A SAFETY DEVICE DESIGNED TO SAVE LIVES. *TR
