THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE....UPDATED 12/28/16 *BF UPDATED 01/03/17.*JB

TAKATA RECALL - I AM BEING TOLD THAT IT WILL BE THE FIRST QTR OF 2017 BEFORE THEY EXPECT TO HAVE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THAT IS ALMOST A YEAR SINCE THE NOTICE. WE CANNOT USE THIS CAR WITH MORE THAN THE DRIVER ON BOARD. THIS IS AN UNACCEPTABLE DELAY IN GETTING PARTS. HONDA HAD IT DONE IN A MONTH. WE WOULD PREFER NOT TO BE GIVEN A RENTAL CAR.

RECALL ISSUE: LOCAL DEALER IN CA HAS NOT RESPONDED IN A TIMELY MANNER SAYING NO AIR BAGS ARE AVAILABLE; HAS TAKEN NO INTEREST WITH A PRIORITY LIST OR ANY OTHER ACTION, DESPITE MY FINANCIAL NEED TO SELL. FALSELY ASSURED ME FRONT SEAT COULD BE USED BY A PASSENGER, BUT THIS CANNOT BE CONFIRMED ONLINE AND WOULD NOT PROVIDE WRITTEN STATEMENT WHEN CALLED TO CONFIRM. I DO NO UNDERSTAND HOW OTHER PEOPLE WITH OTHER BRANDS, E.G. ACURA, (EVEN NEWER WITH NO PRE-COLLISION FEATURE) HAVE CONTACTED DEALER WHO ORDERED AND REPLACED THE TAKATA AIR BAG. HOW CAN THIS BE EXPEDITED??? THANK YOU *TR
