2011 Honda Civic Air Bags

The contact owned a 2011 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while attempting to park in a parking lot, he was blinded by the sun and collided with the circular concrete base of a parking lot light on private property. The contact mentioned that the engine was revving high. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact was rendered unconscious by the impact. The contact sustained a cracked sternum, rib, right shoulder, back, and hip injuries, and also aggravated a prior spine injury. The contact stated that he observed coolant leaking from the radiator on the ground under the vehicle. Medical attention was required for these injuries. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was towed to a dealer, where the vehicle was diagnosed that the radiator was destroyed and the vehicle was deemed totaled. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 156,000.

On August 9 while grandson was in route on I20 toward Birmingham, Al. to attend grandparent funeral, driver air bag exploded. He struggled to take a close next exit. He pulled car to side of road and ran away from car. He said it was full of smoke and small pieces. He feared the car was going to catch fire. His phone was dead and there was nothing off the exit so after smoke cleared and he felt safer, he drove car to my home and parked under carport. I called Sunny King Honda on Monday and they said that I had to contact American Honda. I was told they would send someone to inspect, but after many times calling, they said insurance needed to inspect. On October 1, Insurance looked at car and did car fax and found no reason for air bag to explode. They had already given me case number but finally a case manager, named Ilene, answered and said to take to dealership on October 24 for inspection and test. I spoke with guy at dealership and he said because car does not need to be driven, I could leave there and they would lock up. I have called again many times trying to find out when car will be fixed and she is not returning my calls. It has been 3 more weeks since dropping off at dealership. It is going on 4 months without car. This could have been a death complaint instead of needing repair. He was fortunate that his left arm was really red and no other harm. There was not a recall on his vin but common sense is air bag is for safety when hitting something to protect individual. Looking on line, there are other complaints with 2011 Civic. The car has been a great car but I am concerned about safety. I hoped American Honda would just repair car and make safe, but at this point, I am questioning.

[XXX] LOOKED LEFT AND SEEN A VEHICLE APPROACHING THE FOUR WAY AND [XXX] THEN LOOKED RIGHT AN HE LOOKED STRAIGHT AND THEN BEGAN TO LET OFF THE BREAK PEDAL AND THEN WE GOT HIT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE NEAR THE HEADLIGHT AREA. IT IS TOTALED. WHEN WE GOT HIT THE PASSENGER AIR BAGS WE HAD REPLACED FOR A RECALL ABOUT A YEAR AGO. MY HEAD CRACKED THE WINDSHIELD, MY CHEST HIT THE DASH WHICH CAUSED A BROKEN STERNUM AND TWO DISPLACED DISC. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG CAME OUT LATE, THE TWO PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS ALSO DIDN'T DEPLOY. I HAVE ALL THE DOCUMENTATION. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND I HAVE RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THIS FACT

I'M REALIZING THAT MY PASSENGER AIR BAGS HAS HAD MULTIPLE RECALLS MADE.

2011 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO REPLACEMENT PARTS NOT AVAILABLE TO REPAIR PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL AND CONSUMER WAS DENIED A LOANER VEHICLE UNTIL REPAIRS ARE COMPLETE. *SMD *JS

TAMARA RECALL: MY FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG DOES NOT WORK. THE CAR L HAS NEVER BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS. I'VE BEEN TOLD BY 2 DIFFERENT MECHANIC'S

CAR LOST CONTROL ON THE ROAD AND MOVED OUTSIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THE SIDE AIR BAGS GOT DEPLOYED. WHEN THEY GOT DEPLOYED THE AIR BAGS DID NOT INFLATE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE HEAD TO BE HIT ON THE WINDOWS OF THE CAR PRETTY HARD. HOW COULD IT HAPPEN THAT THE AIR BAGS GOD DEPLOYED BUT NO AIR GOT INFLATED INTO THE AIRBAGS. THEY JUST FELL AS IF A CLOTH \ CURTAIN WAS COMING OUT WITHOUT INFLATING. ATTACHED PICTURES SHOULD GIVE YOU AN IDEA.

THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON EVEN AFTER REPAIR SHOP RESET IT. WE ARE VERY WORRIED ABOUT IT'S ABILITY TO OPERATE CORRECTLY WITHOUT INJURING US !

TAKATA RECALL ISSUED IN JULY 2016. IN JANUARY 2017 DEALER SAID THEY WERE RECEIVING PARTS FOR LAST SUMMER'S RECALLS. TODAY I WAS TOLD THE DEALER (PROCTOR HONDA, TALLAHASSEE, FL) HAS NO IDEA, THEY ARE STILL WAITING PARTS, PLEASE BE PATIENT. PLEASE HELP, WE NEED MORE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL. DUE TO POTENTIAL INJURY/DEATH TO PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE, I CANNOT HAVE ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR MY JOB AND INCONVENIENT FOR MY PERSONAL TIME. NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE, DESPITE HONDA SAYING ONE WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN 2016.

TAKATA INFLATOR. HONDA SENT RECALL NOTICE ONE YEAR AGO BUT OPPORTUNITY TO REPAIR/REMEDY IS NOT YET AVAILABLE EVEN THOUGH THEY PROPOSED THAT IT WOULD BE BY 6-9 MONTHS. NO INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED.

TAKATA RECALL - MY COMPLAINT IS WITH THE AMOUNT OF TIME IT IS TAKING FOR PARTS TO BECOME AVAILABLE TO REPAIR A HONDA CIVIC I PURCHASED FOR MY DAUGHTER AND HER FAMILY. I RECEIVED A LETTER IN JULY 2016 INDICATING THAT THE 'REMEDY PARTS NEEDED TO CONDUCT PASSENGER FRONTAL AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALLS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE IN LATE SUMMER/FALL OF 2016'. I ALSO WAS ADVISED I WOULD RECEIVE ANOTHER LETTER WHEN THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. UNTIL SUCH TIME AS THE VEHICLE IS REPAIRED I WAS ADVISED: "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." AS OF TODAY, DECEMBER 30, 2016, I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE 2ND LETTER. IT IS EXTREMELY STRESSFUL FOR A MOTHER TO HAVE HER CHILD SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHEN SHE KNOWS THIS POSES A DANGER. HOWEVER, WHEN THE CAR IS USED FOR A SINGLE MOM WITH THREE CHILDREN, THERE ARE NO OTHER OPTIONS. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD COMPENSATE FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A SAFE RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE TO REPAIR THE CAR AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. THANK YOU FOR READING MY CONCERN. *TR

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL LETTER 07/2016 AND THERE IS STILL NO REMEDY AVAILABLE ON 10/29/2016. LETTER CLAIMED THAT REMEDY WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN THE LATE SUMMER OR FALL. LETTER ALSO ADVISED NOT TO HAVE ANYBODY SIT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WHICH IS EXTREMELY INCONVENIENT .

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED MY SAFETY RECALL LETTER IN JULY WHICH STATED I PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE LATE SUMMER/FALL. WE PROCEEDED IN NOT ALLOWING SOMEONE IN OUR PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR CAR. WE CALLED ABOUT THE RECALL AND WERE TOLD THE PARTS WERE NOT IN. WE CALLED AGAIN AND WHERE TOLD NOONE HAD PUT OUR NAME DOWN FOR THEM TO ORDER THE PARTS. WE LEFT OUR NAME AND WE WERE TOLD THEY SHOULD BE IN IN A WEEK. WE CALLED BACK AND THE PARTS WERE NOT IN AND WERE TOLD THEY WOULD CALL AS SOON AS THEY GOT THEM. WE ARE NOW AT THE END OF OCTOBER AND AFTER SEVERAL CALLS WE HAVE NOT BEEN CALLED BACK OR RECEIVED ANY MORE INFORMATION. WE HAVE CALLED AGAIN AND SAME ANSWER NO PARTS. WE USE OUR VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT OUR CHILDREN TO SCHOOL. WE HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN OFFERED A FREE CAR RENTAL TO USE UNTIL THEY GET IT FIXED. THIS ISSUE STARTED IN JULY.
