2011 Honda CR-V Air Bags

LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN SCHIFF ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2011 HONDA CRV AIRBAG EXPLODED TOTALING HER CAR. *LD THE CONSUMER THE CONSUMER RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN AUGUST OF 2016 FOR THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS. THE RECALL REQUESTED FOR THE CONSUMER TO RETURN A POST CARD THEN THE DEALER WOULD SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. THE DEALER NEVER RESPONDED WITH A DATE AND TIME. THE AIRBAG EXPLODED ON FEB 2, 2017, WITHOUT A REASON CAUSING BRIGHT COLORED BRUISING ON THE CONSUMERS ARMS AND CHEST, AND A BROKEN HAND. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO PULL THE SRS CODES FROM THE VEHICLE RENDERING, THE CONSUMER UNABLE TO COMPLETE THE INSURANCE CLAIM. *JS

TAKATA RIECALL--NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET! THAT'S THE PROBLEM . I USED TO BE ABLE TO ENJOY MY CAR AND I REALLY LIKED DRIVING IT. NOW, BECAUSE I HAVE RECEIVED THESE RECALL NOTICES FROM THE DEALOR AND OTHER AGENCIES, I HAVE BEEN EXPECTING PREMATURE EXPANSIONS OR A FAILURE OF IT TO EXPAND WHEN NEEDED. THIS HAS CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR ME AND NOW I SEE I'M NOT EVEN ON THE LIST. IF YOU THINK I SHOULD CONSIDER MYSELF LUCKY THEN YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE FEELING OF DRIVING A CAR AT ALL. I'VE BEEN STRIPPED OF THAT FUNDAMENTAL EXCITEMENT OF MY NEW (USED) CAR AND NOW I'M EXPOSED EVERYDAY TO THE UNCERTAINTY OF GETTING SAFELY TO MY DESTINATION OR WORSE YET, HURTING SOMEBODY ELSE DUE TO FAULTY EQUIPMENT! WHAT A TRAGEDY THIS HAS BECOME FOR EVERYBODY INVOLVED BUT PLEASE CONSIDER THE EMOTIONAL LOSS I HAVE SUSTAINED NOT COUNTING THE FINANCIAL BURDEN FROM LOSS OF SERVICES I EXPECTED AND PAID FOR IN GOOD FAITH. I DIDN'T PAY 20 THOUSAND DOLLARS TO BECOME A NERVOUS WRECK FROM THE THOUGHTS OF HAVING A WRECK!

TAKATA RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL - I THINK THAT THE PROPER INFLATORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED IN MY CR-V BUT I'M STILL GETTING RECALL NOTICES. I HAD THE WORK PERFORMED AT SYLACAUGA HONDA (256-245-5000). TWO DIFFERENT TRIPS BUT THAT'S ANOTHER STORY. WHEN I CALL THEM I JUST GET THE RUN AROUND. HOW CAN I TELL IF THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN CORRECTED?

TAKATA RECALL. GOT NOTICE OF RECALL IN MARCH 2016 WHICH SAID I WOULD BE CONTACTED DURING SUMMER OF 2016 TO GET IT REPLACED. CALLED IN DECEMBER 2016 AND LOCAL HONDA DEALER SAID THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART. THEY STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT. PLEASE HAVE IT SENT TO KENDALL HONDA OF FAIRBANKS ALASKA AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE GOTTEN YET ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE AND TO DATE I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED BY HONDA ABOUT MY PREVIOUS INQUIRIES ABOUT FIXING THE AIRBAGS. MOST OF MY MAINTENANCE IS DONE AT THE HONDA DEALER AT 621 BATTLEFIELD BLVD IN CHESAPEAKE VA AND AT LEAST 2-3 TIMES LAST YEAR WHEN VISITING FOR MAINTENANCE I ASKED ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE STILL ON BACK ORDER AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN THEY ARRIVED. TODAY'S RECALL NOTICE SAYS TO FILE A COMPLAINT IF YOUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER HAS BEEN UNABLE TO MAKE REPAIR WITHIN 60 DAYS OF INITIAL CONTACT.

TAKATA RECALL: PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016. HAVING PREVIOUSLY OWNED A 2007 CRV I WAS AWARE OF THE RECALL AND ADVISED THAT TO UPGRADED VEHICLE WAS UNDER A SIMILAR RECALL. I HAD ALREADY STARTED THE RECALL PROCESS ON THE 2007 SO I IMMEDIATELY ADVISED THE DEALERSHIP OF MY TRADE AND GAVE THEM THE VIN NUMBER OF MY NEW VEHICLE AND ASKED THEM TO ORDER THE NEW AIR BAGS. THAT WAS IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016 AND TO DATE I HAVE HEARD NOTHING FOR THE DEALERSHIP OR HONDA.
