Honda is not honoring their commitment to make service available for the recalls on this vehicle, which includes the Takata airbag. I am attempting to make an appointment at my local Honda Dealer Paragon Honda in Woodside, NY on 6/28. There are no service appointments available through the end of December. I had the same problem about two years ago when I attempted to speak to a person at the dealership. They have made this impossible. Because I live in NYC it is not reasonable to commute to the next closest dealer because that would require bridges and tolls. This is unaccaptable.

Not a complaint but I had my passenger airbag replaced June 26, 2015. Received a new recall in July 2015 but was told it did not apply that it was covered in the June 2015 repairs. Just need to verify if the recall is a recall of the recall. Confused yet?

I was involved in a high speed motor vehicle accident on CA980. The airbags did not deploy. I brought my Honda CRV in for recall for the airbags in ~Jan 2020 to get this recall fixed, so I do not know what happened.

Takata recall: I had to pay labor costs to have the replacement air bags installed. I also did not receive a loan vehicle while my car was in the shop all day being repaired. I was told I could rent one of their vehicles. The airbag was replaced prior to it being deployed because of crash or accident.

No " takata recall"" for my 2004 Honda CRV w/ faulty driver + passenger airbags?! this car should definately be on that recall list but is not!! why? ! I purchased my 2004 only 9 months ago from a dealer. I was traveling on a highway approaching a red light going approx 35- 40 mph when my 2004 Honda CRV hit the rear of another car. My driver airbag never opened to protect me yet my passenger airbag inflated!? ironically, I was alone with no passengers! both front airbags failed me & were faulty! I feel this is a major safety hazard and I was lucky to get out of my car alive! I don't know if fault lies wholly with Honda and/or takaka or w/ the dealer who sold me this car" unfortunately, I now own an $8000 "totaled" CRV sitting in a junkyard and I'm w/O transportation to my job!

SRS unit malfunction. SRS light steady lit. Vehicle has not been in a crash. Result is that the SRS will not function as designed in a actual crash. Suspect premature failure of internal components of the SRS. Honda will only replace at owners cost.
