2011 Honda CR-V Air Bags

I was in a pretty serious collision with a very large deer this morning. My car is totaled, the airbags did not deploy and I had to physically shield my face, neck and head.

Side air bag alert: OFF

My airbag light came on on June 2, 2023. I called Honda to get an appointment, inwhich I did for 6/20/23 for them to diagnose and do a state inspection. On 6/20/23, I was told that I had a FAULTY CABLE REEL. I was told that my car would not pass inspection without me getting this repaired at the cost of $760.99. I got it repaired on 6/21/23 due to the part having to be ordered and received that day.

My airbag light came on without any incidents accruing.

The contact owns a 2011 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 65 mph in inclement weather, the vehicle slid on ice and collided with a steel pole, breaking the pole. The contact was unsure if there were warning lights illuminated. The impact of the crash was on the driver's side, and the rear of the vehicle. The air bags failed to deploy. The driver sustained head, neck, shoulder, and mid-back injuries, and medical treatment was provided to the contact. A police report was taken. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the air bag, air bag sensor, driver's headlamp, driver's seat belt, and driver's door, needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 160,000.

Driver side air bag inflator pump is defective resulting into SRS light on occasionally. State inspection failed on vehicle due to the issue. Registered case with Honda but case is not assigned to any case managers despite calling 5 times. It’s been more than 3 weeks and still no answer from Honda. This was safety recall for the same part but entering vehicle VIN number in the safety recall tool shows zero recalls pending on the vehicle. Can you please advise what steps I should take now??)

I VISITED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR THE RECALL WORK. THEY DID NOT COMPLETE THE RECALL WORK. *TR

THE DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THE 2011 HONDA CR-V WHEN HER VEHICLE WAS PUSHED INTO ANOTHER CAR.THE DAUGHTER EXPERIENCED BACK STRAINS AND WHIP LASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE HOME ADDRESS. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. NO OTHER PASSENGERS WERE IN THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CRASH OCCURRED OCTOBER 23, 2019.

DURING A FAIRLY LOW SPEED COLLISION (~25 - 30 MPH) THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, THEY DID NOT FULLY INFLATE. CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS AND TITLE WAS TRANSFERRED TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY.

TAKATA RECALL-RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL AND CALLED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY 11/20/18 AND FIRST AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT WAS 1/22/19.

APPOINTMENT TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE FOR RECALL AIRBAG INFLATOR.

I HAD BOTH AIRBAG INFLATORS REPLACED. HOWEVER I RECENTLY RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FROM DEALER SAYING THE PASSENGER BAG NEEDED DOING. I THOUGHT THIS WAS WEIRD, AND CHECKED THE HONDA RECALL SITE, AND IT SAYS "NOTHING NEEDS REPLACING". HOWEVER, TODAY I DOUBLED CHECK WITH THE DEALER, AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A "BULLETIN" ASSOCIATED WITH A POTENTIAL FAULTY INSTALLATION. I HAVE NO IDEA NOW IF THIS IS DEALER [XXX] OR A LEGIT SAFETY CONCERN. PLEASE MAKE SURE HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TAKATA RECALL: IN JULY 2016 MY WIFE AND I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TAKATA AIR BAG ON OUR 2011 HONDA CR-V VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG WAS ALLEGEDLY REPLACED AT THAT TIME, BUT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT HAS COME ON SEVERAL TIMES SINCE THEN (AS I WRITE THIS NOTE IN JUNE 2018). I CAN DOCUMENT SEVERAL ADDITIONAL TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT HAS COME ON, WITH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP GIVING VARIOUS EXPLANATIONS, WHILE NOT SOLVING THE PROBLEM. IF YOU INCLUDE THE ORIGINAL RECALL NOTICE, I HAVE 10 SERVICE REPAIR RECORDS OVER 2 YEARS SHOWING THE SRS LIGHT COMING ON BECAUSE OF A PROBLEM OR DEFECT. MY WIFE DRIVES THE CAR PRIMARILY, TAKING OUR SON TO AND FROM SCHOOL AND OTHER ACTIVITIES. SHE NO LONGER FEELS SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AND WE NOW DO NOT TRUST THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP, WHICH HAS PROVIDED OFTEN-CHANGING ANSWERS OR EXPLANATIONS FOR THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ISSUE. WE HOPE YOU CAN HELP US.

ADVANTAGE HONDA (1260 NORTHERN BLVD, MANHASSET, NY) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY.

VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END COLLISION WITH A 2015 DODGE RAM 1500. THE HONDA CRV COLLIDED WITH THE BACK OF THE PARKED DODGE RAM GOING ABOUT 35 MILES AN HOUR. DRIVER BRAKED HARD 15 TO 20 FEET BEFORE IMPACT. AFTER IMPACT THE CAR SMELLED LIKE GUN POWDER BUT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED ON A FOUR-LANE ROAD, 127TH AND HOMAN IN BLUE ISLAND ILLINOIS.

TAKATA RECALL I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS CAR AND THE AIRBAGS, IF DEPLOYED, COULD DISPERSE SHARP METAL POSSIBLY CAUSING FATALITIES. SHE IS IN SEATTLE, WA AT THIS TIME. IS THERE A DEALERSHIP THERE THAT WOULD REPLACE THE AIR BAGS AT NO CHARGE?
