I FORGOT TO ADD THE RECALL NUMBER ON THE VSA DEVICE THAT LOCKS UP WITHOUT DRIVERS INVOLVEMENT AND CAUSES ACCIDENTS. I WAS TOLD BY HONDA IT IS 13-098 IN MY FORMER COMPLAINT TODAY. BOTTOM LINE, IF I DRIVE IT WITH THIS UNSAFE CONDITION AND IT LOCKS UP AND CAUSES AN ACCIDENT, WHO IS LIABLE FOR DAMAGES ETC? IF I DON'T DRIVE IT I HAVE NO CAR UNTIL REPAIRED. DOES OR IS HONDA RESPONSIBLE TO PROVIDE US A CAR UNTIL OURS IS REPAIRED AND SAFE AGAIN. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE AND NOW TOM SCOTT HONDA IN NAMPA ID SAID THEY CAN'T REPAIR IT UNTIL SOMETIME NEXT YEAR BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GET PARTS UNTIL THEN. FROM MY UNDERSTANDING THIS VEHICLE IS BEING RECALLED BECAUSE THE BRAKES LOCK UP DO TO THE VSA DEVICE MALFUNCTIONING AND CAUSING ACCIDENTS IN WHICH PEOPLE ARE GETTING HURT. WHAT IS THE ANSWER? *TR
