Takata recall, I received a letter from american Honda about a safety recall related to the airbag of my Honda CRV 2011. This car was in the state of ri where my daughter was going to college so the closest Honda dealer had the car towed to there closest location and gave me an smaller car with the excuse that I was going to receive a car with similar cargo space than the CRV as soon as we have to move our daughter out of once she finished her semester and also that the car was going to be towed to nh when we move to nh but now their customer service department is denying that they made such promises and asking us to cover the towing back to nh and borrow others peoples car to move out of ri. In fewer words they are running away from their responsibility and lying to their customers. Now I am in nh and they are holding the car against my will unless I pay the towing myself. Now I have 30 days to register my car in nh but thanks to american Honda I won't be able to do so.I understand that accidents and fatalities are more important than my case but american Honda should not take advantage of the gravity of other cases to abuse and lie to their customers.

Takata recall - my car was added to the recall list in February 2016 and I was notified by mail in March. I only heard through another customer in April that if I contact Honda, a rental will be provided because the parts are not available until "probably" late summer 2016. Honda did not notify me that a rental car could be provided but rely on the customer to call them. This defect could cause injury or death to the driver or passengers of our car. I have called 8 dealerships in the nyc area multiple times this week. 2/8 said they could help me rent a car, but only up to $35/day and the difference/ insurance and storage for my defective vehicle is my financial responsibility. Although the Honda website claims to provide rentals at no charge. Honda is providing false information in their recall campaign, and I can not afford a rental car in my area because of the difference in price and limited availability. Honda is failing to provide a safe car for me to drive my toddler to daycare in every day. I'm scared to drive my car but have no choice for at least the next three months.

I received a safety notice for an air bag recall 3/22/2016. The recall stated that the air bag could kill me if deployed and that the parts will not be available until the end of summer 2016. I immediately called Honda and they told me to contact my dealer, so I did. I have been in contact trying to get a rental from my dealer for two weeks, they keep telling me they have no cars available. So I called Honda back and they told me I need to be contacting multiple dealerships in my area to try to get a rental. So now im in contact with another dealership who cannot put me in a substitute car. So in the meantime im driving around in a deathtrap. I feel like ive run out of options. Please help!! thanks, concerned driver

Takate recall - I want to make you aware that the Honda corporation has not effectively ensured that its independently owned/operated dealerships are addressing all affected drivers of the recalled vehicles. Drivers who are under the age of 18 are not able to rent cars from enterprise rental services, which is being used as the sole alternate transportation option by hendrick Honda, woodbridge, va. Hendrick Honda does not have loaner vehicles. Therefore, anyone under the age of 18 who drives one of the affected vehicles has no options to get alternate transportation. Obviously, there are other dealers in the nova area, but in a call to three dealers, they have run out of loaner cars. My family is affected because my daughter, age 17, cannot drive the other family vehicle due to her small size and the large size of the other family vehicle. It would seem to me that since a 17 year old was a person who was killed in the airbag incident that, in part, prompted this airbag recall, that the Honda corporation and all its independent dealers would be expected to have appropriate alternate transportation options for all drivers, not just those over the age of 18. I have filed a service claim with the Honda corporation and have requested that the service director from hendrick Honda, from whom I purchased the vehicle, to whom I was referred to get the alternate transportation, and with whom I have done business for well over 5 years, call me to discuss this problem in more detail. However, I feel that the larger issue is that Honda and its dealers have not looked at its entire customer base to ensure that all potential drivers of these cars are covered.

Takata recall in the wake of the recent death of a teen in Texas because of a faulty takata airbag, I wanted to take this opportunity to inform you about my experience with the recall. I received numerous notices from Honda informing me about two airbags that needed to be replaced in my Honda CRV. With the first notice I contacted my local dealership and was told it would be two months prior to my passenger airbag repair. I felt that wasn't an issue since my wife had another car and I hardly had passengers in the vehicle. I recently received notice that my driver airbag is now in need of replacement and since moving to san diego after the birth of my daughter my wife and I now use the the same car with my daughter in her car seat. This recent notice was disconcerting so I took it upon myself to call american Honda motor co. Directly to secure temporary alternative transportation per their recall notice. This issue with my vehicle is potentially deadly and with my new daughter I did not want to take any chances on her safety. After speaking with jessica on 03/19/2016 at 10:45am I was given the case id# 04523834 and told I would be contacted early the following week to have someone discuss my options. It is now almost a month later and I have received no call nor any response from my messages.

Takata recall paragon Honda dealer in queens, NY, where we bought our car is very 'unresponsive' and not very forthcoming to help us. My wife and I went at 7 am this morning to the service dept. As instructed. But later I realized it was at a different place. When I sent email saying so to rick he blocked me from sending more emails.
