2010 Honda Civic Air Bags

I hit a bumb and my engine started smoking and then airbag triggered on both driver and passenger side

Driving on the highway, smooth road, hit nothing and the entire driver side airbags deployed.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Civic. The contact stated while her daughter was driving 20 MPH, the driver-side air bag curtain deployed without any impact, causing the contact to lose control of the vehicle and struck the curb on the passenger side. The inside of the vehicle was damaged due to the deployment of the air bag. The contact was able to drive the vehicle home. The contact was severely injured and had to seek medical attention. No police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, but the vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, and they stated that the air bag deploy because she struck the curb. The failure mileage was 142,000.

I purchased a used Honda Civic last summer. This year I started receiving recall notices. I did not respond until the notice told me that they could provide a loaner because I don't have a ride to drop off and pick up the vehicle. I have made at least 4 attempts over the last couple of months to remedy the airbag situation, but the Honda representatives were not willing to set up a loaner vehicle. Then when they finally seemed like it would happen, I was told that I don't have the right insurance and they won't do it for that reason. I know the company needs to fix millions of these air bags and are trying to save money but, I need them to fix mine too. Now they say they can't accommodate my situation. I am asking Honda to please fix my airbag. The attached flyer states that it is dangerous and deadly and that they would do it. Thank you

Airbag deployed unexpectedly while I was driving through a construction zone - I think it was right when I drove onto a metal construction plate. This would have been very bad if a car was right behind me. I do not have the car for inspection, since due to the cost of replacing the airbag system my insurance declared it a total loss and picked it up for salvage although the car was otherwise in great working condition with no other damage. However I have many pictures of my car from all angles that were taken for insurance purposes. No one else inspected the car in person before it was picked up since my insurance wanted to do a virtual inspection. There were zero warnings of the problem before it happened.

While driving to work on December 20th, all of my curtain air bags and driver side air bags deployed without cause or warning. I brought it in to a Honda dealership to be inspected and I was told I was at fault even though it was an equipment error. There were no lights on my dash indicating the sensors on my 2010 Honda civic were not functioning properly. Thankfully I was not on any highway during the the incident or more serious trouble could have occurred. There was a ringing in my left ear for days after the incident.

MY SON WAS HIT FROM BEHIND WHILE AT A STOP. HIS CAR WAS PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF HIM. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CAR WAS TOTALED.

The frontal air bags did not deploy but the side air bags did deploy. The contact sustained inquires to her c3 and c4 vertebrae's, bruising to the body that was treated medically at a hospital.

PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACED FROM RECALL AND DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG NOT REPLACED IS NOT IN RECALL.

SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS MINE.HAS METAL SHARDS NEED TO BE REPLACED WAS NOT RECALLED. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WHILE THE RECALL IS OUT. THESE AIRBAGS CAN GO OFF AT ANYTIME WHILE DRIVING OR SITTING

TAKATA RECALL AFTER NUMEROUS MAILINGS FROM HONDA ENCOURAGING ME TO HAVE MY DEFECTIVE AIRBAG REPLACED, I FINALLY CALLED THEIR SERVICE HOTLINE IN MARCH 2019. I EMPHASIZED THE NEED TO OBTAIN A "FREE LOANER VEHICLE" AS BOLDLY ADVERTISED IN THEIR MAILING, AND HOW MY SCHEDULE WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE WITHOUT SUCH ACCOMMODATIONS. I WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE A RETURN PHONECALL THE NEXT DAY FROM TURNERSVILLE HONDA TO SCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT. TWO WEEKS WENT BY WITHOUT A RETURN CALL, SO I CONTACTED TURNERSVILLE HONDA MYSELF TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. AFTER ~15MINUTES ON THE PHONE, THE SERVICE REP INFORMED ME THAT THEY "DO NOT OFFER LOANER VEHICLES" DESPITE WHAT WAS STATED IN THE ADVERTISEMENT. I THEN CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO SEE IF THEY COULD ASSIST IN FULFILLING THEIR PROMISED ACCOMMODATIONS. DESPITE AN ADDITIONAL 3 MONTHS AND A DOZEN PHONECALLS AND PROMISES FOR ASSISTANCE, I AM STILL NO CLOSER TO HAVING THIS DEFECT REPAIRED. MY CASE NUMBER IN THIS MATTER IS 09466794. AS WORKING PARENTS WITH A FULL SCHEDULE, TWO SMALL CHILDREN, AND TWO OLDER PARENTS BATTLING CANCER, WE SIMPLY CANNOT DEAL WITH THESE SORTS OF OBSTACLES IN GETTING A POTENTIALLY DEADLY SAFETY DEFECT REPAIRED. WE EXPECT REASONABLE AND TIMELY ACCOMMODATIONS TO BE MADE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE SO BOLDLY ADVERTISED IN THE RECALL NOTIFICATIONS. I HOPE YOU CAN ENCOURAGE HONDA TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THEIR LEGAL AND MORAL OBLIGATIONS TO REPAIR OUR VEHICLE.

I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE PRIOR TO THEM SUPPOSEDLY FIXING A RECALL NOW MY AIRBAG WILL NOT STAY OFF. THEY CLAIM IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL REPAIR BUT I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE. THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE BEFORE THEY FOOLED WITH MY CAR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND I CAN'T ALLOW SOMETHING TO HAPPEN TO THEM DRIVING IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE

I WANT TO REPAIR THIS MONTH

HONDA FINALLY REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE TAKATA AIRBAG ON 1/18/2018 BUT NOT THE DRIVER'S SIDE? I HAVE BEEN HIT IN THE REAR BY 2 CARS SINCE BUYING THIS CAR IN 2010. NO AIRBAG INFLATED BUT EVERY TIME I DRIVE THIS CAR I AM TERRIFIED OF THE AIRBAG SITUATION. WHY AREN'T THEY REPLACING THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG TOO? MY ANXIETY GROWS EVERY TIME I HAVE TO DRIVE SOMEWHERE.

TAKATA RECALL-ON MAY 24, 2016, ON AN UNUSUAL HOT AND HUMID DAY ON THE LOWER MARYLAND SHORE, I WATCHED MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE - SIDEWALK IN FRONT OF THE SPACE. I WATCHED THE CAR COME TO A STOP AND WITHIN SECONDS I WATCHED THE CAR JUMP ONTO THE SIDEWALK. AS I WALKED OVER TO THE CAR I SAW THAT THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED. THE SIDE, CURTAIN AIRBAGS. I OPENED THE CAR DOOR, THE CAR FULL OF DUST, MY DAUGHTER CRYING AND BADLY BRUISED AND HAD TO BE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. SHE DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENED, NOR DO I. AS A RESULT OF THAT INCIDENT, THE CAR WAS TOTALED. THE PAYOFF DID NOT COVER THE AMOUNT OF THE FINANCING AND MY INSURANCE COMPANY DROPPED OUR GOOD DRIVER RATE, FLAGGED MY DAUGHTER AND INCREASED MY INSURANCE BY $100 A MONTH. AT THE TIME I CALLED HONDA AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAPPENED, I GAVE THEM THE VIN NUMBER BUT WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND WHAT WAS I LOOKING FOR. NOW EIGHT MONTHS LATER THE TRUTH HAS COME OUT. *TR
