This vehicle does not appear to be on the recall list, however the owner's literature indicates it has takata airbags. Are the dealer's required to replace the airbags even if they are not on the recall list?

Side curtain airbag indicator light "on" for no apparent reason. Turned off the next day, but turned "on" again the following day and has remained on since this day. I am at a lost for the reason and can only attribute it to hot weather.

There is an "air bag" warning light on in this vehicle. When hooked up to computer it reads "air bag inflater" problem. Older models of Honda's have had recall notices for this problem. I called billion Honda in Iowa city, ia and they responded "no recall" on this vehicle and "not covered under warranty" and were rude on the phone. Warrant states 15 years or 150K mile warranty on "safety restraints". with past history and warranty coverage I would think they would correct this problem before the liability becomes greater.

We pulled our Honda CRV 2011 into a parking lot at bonefish grill in canton Ohio on November 30, 2014. My mother was pulling into a parking spot and the accelerator moved to the floor and the car could not be stopped by slamming on the brakes. We ended up running into a car parked in front of us then a car to the left of us and then the car was finally stopped when we ran into the side of another car parked in the lot where it finally came to rest. The air bags did not deploy, and we were not injured. We were very scared and there was substantial damage to the 3 other cars as well as our own. We have read online the stories of others that had very similar situations with this particular make and model vehicle. We do not plan on ever getting in this vehicle again and will not trust any vehicle that Honda builds as well. This incident luckily happened in a parking lot. If we would have been in an intersection we or someone else would likely have been killed. This vehicle needs to be recalled and customers should be compensated for the negligence on the part of the company. It looks like from the stories that we have read that Honda is claiming no responsibility for this issue and blaming it on driver error. This is not acceptable and Honda needs to own up to their incompetence and dishonesty.
