The contact owned a 2006 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while the husband was idling behind a bus, a second vehicle traveling at a high rate of speed crashed into the rear end of the vehicle. The impact of the rear-end crash pushed the vehicle into the rear of the bus causing severe damage to the vehicle's front end. During the crash, the air bags did not deploy and the seatbelts on both the driver's and front passenger's side had malfunctioned and did not properly secure the occupants. The driver sustained bruising of the chest and torso. The front passenger sustained a head injury. No medical treatment was immediately required. The vehicle was destroyed. A police report was taken at the scene and the vehicle was towed to a local service center. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were not contacted. The failure mileage was 170,000.

I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL.

On Friday 8/12/22 at about 12PM, the drivers side airbag on my Honda Civic inadvertently deployed while driving west on Hwy 28 in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (coords 46.310194, -85.627542). I was driving the speed limit (65 mph). The car did not collide with any object. I noticed the airbag light had come on before the incident, however, there were no service centers or Honda dealers within at least a hundred miles. My safety was put at risk by the sudden and unexpected deployment of the airbag. My left wrist and elbow were injured by the deployment along with laceration on my wrist. I have an appointment at the local Honda Dealer (Thelen Honda - Bay City, MI) on 9/2/22 at 9:30am to have the vehicle/airbag system inspected. Unfortunately, there are no earlier openings for service. A claim has been filed with my car insurance. They have not inspected the damage at this time and probably won't because they informed me my policy won't cover the damage.

Takata Recall. The contact owns a 2006 Honda Civic. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V346000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

This was a drive from NY to Boston. In Boston, I was driving about 45MPH, 1 mile before the last exit from HWY. Suddenly, the car is out of control, probably the brake system, making the car turning around until it hits the divider on the rear right side of the car. Both right-side passenger airbags were activated, but none inflated as expected. Luckily, we didn't hit any other cars. Three people in the car were safe, except I have muscle pain near the neck and shoulder.

WHEN I'M DRIVING THE CAR I NOTICE THAT MY AIR BAG LIGHT SAYS THAT MY AIR BAG IS OFF. THIS WILL BE THE 11TH RECALL AND IT HASN'T GOT FIXED YET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. DURING THE WINTER MONTHS, THE SRS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED LIT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE SHE WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN THE FRONT DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT IMPACT. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE SIDEWALK. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISES AND TRAUMA INJURIES WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DRIVABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HER RESIDENCE WHERE AN APPRAISER DEEMED THE VEHICLE A TOTAL LOSS AND TOWED THE VEHICLE TO A SALVAGE LOT. THE CONTACT CALLED LOCAL DEALER KELLY HONDA LOCATED AT 540 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA 01905, (781) 595-5252, WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED.

COMPLAINT: SRS LIGHT ILLUMINATED - CAUSE 32-1-X (X=0-9/A-F) OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE IN THE RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR. REPAIR IS NOT COVERED BY HONDA BECAUSE "RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR (IN THE SEAT, NOT THE DASH) NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY EXTENSION" - REPAIR ESTIMATE QUOTED AT "AROUND $1,200" AT THIS POINT, THE ONLY ISSUE IS THE LIGHT IS ON. THIS IS TRUE ANYTIME THE IGNITION IS IN THE ON POSITION REGARDLESS OF VEHICLE DISPOSITION. I OPENED A CASE WITH HONDA USA (CASE NUMBER 09737616, AND THEY DENIED COVERAGE.

I WAS TOLD MY CAR NEEDS AN INFLATOR BUT THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER RECALL. WHY DOES THIS CAR HAVE AN AIRBAG ISSUE THAT IS NOT COVERED? 802 HONDA, IN MONTPELIER VT HAS REPLACED THE DRIVERS SEAT BELT BUCKLE TWICE AND EACH TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES OUT BUT NOW THEY SAY IT NEEDS A RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR IN THE SEAT WHICH IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL AND THEY GAVE ME A REPAIR ESTIMATE (RANGE) OF $1,000 TO $1,500. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD THEREFORE BE COVERED BY RECALL. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE VISORS WHICH FALL INTO THE LINE OF SIGHT WHEN DRIVING AS A RESULT OF SPLITTING APART WHICH SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED BUT THERE WAS AN EXPIRATION ON THAT RECALL. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THE SAME REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE CAR IS SIX YEARS OLD OR 16 AND REGARDLESS OF THE MILEAGE SO THIS TOO SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

THE 2006 HONDA CIVIC WAS A TOTAL LOSS AT A MINOR ACCIDENT. IT HAS BEEN DISPOSED IN THE SUMMER 2019. THANK YOU, [XXX] MY INFORMATION IS [XXX] IF YOU NEED TO VERIFY OR CONTACT ME. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TAKATA RECALL AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC. (HONDA) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2006-2011 HONDA CIVIC VEHICLES. ACCORDING TO THE EQUIPMENT DEFECT NOTIFICATIONS (16E-042 AND 16E-043) FILED BY TAKATA, THE PROPELLANT WAFERS IN SOME OF THE SUBJECT INFLATORS MAY DEGRADE OVER TIME, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OVER-AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION IN THE EVENT THE AIRBAG IS ACTIVATED. OVERLY AGGRESSIVE COMBUSTION CREATES EXCESSIVE INTERNAL PRESSURE WHEN THE INFLATOR IS ACTIVATED, WHICH MAY CAUSE THE INFLATOR BODY TO RUPTURE. HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THERE HAS NOT BEEN AN ACCIDENT OR CRASH, BUT I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY ASKING ME TO LOOK TO SEE IF THIS CAR WAS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. SHOULD I BE REPLACING THE AIRBAGS IN THIS CAR? *TR
