About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.

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.
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??)
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.
1. air bags should have been changed @ the same time! when takata's dangerous airbags were discovered they bith should have been removed & replaced immediately! instead my family has been @ risk for far too long! I bought my Honda CRV ex-L brand new! I've been driving in a death trap ever since! why was Honda not required to change both airbags? 2. I've read multiple complaints on the ac compressor/clutch's that Honda has known (for 10 years) were dangerously placed, create malfunction of costly ac systems, (children die in hot cars far too often) from heat strokes, etc. As posted on your website! the ac/compressors pick up hazardous materials/waste that is then pushed throughout the ac unit! airport Honda has had knowledge before my warranty expired of this problem in CRV's. they did not disclose this costly issue, neglected to fix it, & it did malfunction. I paid for costly repairs, & I paid Honda for a platinum vehicle warranty! I'm concerned that NHTSA has not held Honda responsible for this stating it's not safety issue when it very clearly is! as a nurse & parent I put my child in a carseat which automatically increases his temperature. Then you add ac issues in tn record heat & humidity (which also affects the airbags) & it's a deadly combination! this is a serious issue, & it is NHTSA's responsibility to hold Honda accountable for their choices not inform their customers & continue putting them in danger. Tn is known for brutal heat, humidity, asthma, & allergens! this is a public safety issue. I have my paperwork to legitimize my claim! investigate this, make Honda notify customers! most people can't afford these repairs! we have had 90 degree days this October, ,& my CRV is blowing hot air again! please contact me immediately & investigate this as a safety issue! okease forgibe the all caps, but this is ridiculous! I expect more from Honda & more from you
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.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2011 Honda CR-V. the contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 16V061000 (air bags); however, the parts to do the repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. Advantage Honda (1260 northern blvd, manhasset, NY) was contacted and confirmed that the parts were not available for the recall remedy. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and was not able to confirm when the parts were to become available. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
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: 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.
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?
Takata recall, air bag inflator replaced at dealer. Drivers seat sliding when taking off or stopping. Dealer diagnosis said front drivers seat needs upper and lower bushings. Noticed this problem close to the end of first two years, only if husband drives it. Later with all drivers. Paid $53.32 on Oct 27 2016 for diagnostics.
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!
