TAKATA RECALL. WE WERE RECENTLY NOTIFIED OF COVERAGE IN THE AIRBAG RECALL AND RECEIVED THE INSTRUCTION TO AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE (CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE) REPAID HAS BEEN PERFORMED. THIS CAUSED ME TO NOTICE THAT THE "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" INDICATOR WAS NOT ILLUMINATING EVEN WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE DANGEROUS DEFECTIVE AIRBAG REMAINS ACTIVE EVEN WITHOUT A PASSENGER THERE. I CALLED THE HONDA RECALL CENTER AND SPOKE WITH A SUPERVISOR, MS. VANESSA ROBINSON, WHO TOLD ME MY ONLY RECOURSE WAS TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR SERVICING TO A DEALER AT MY OWN EXPENSE TO HAVE THE AIRBAG INDICATOR CHECKED. I THINK I CAN REASONABLY TAKE THE CAR'S USER DISPLAY AT FACE VALUE, SUGGESTING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE SENSOR CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO REMAIN ACTIVE, SUCH THAT HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE AN INTERIM MECHANISM TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AS PART OF THE RECALL. I AM PARTICULARLY CONCERNED GIVEN THAT WE USED OUR 2006 HONDA CIVIC IN TEXAS FOR MANY YEARS, WHERE I UNDERSTAND THE CLIMATE INCREASES THE RISK FROM THE DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS. THANK YOU, IN ADVANCE, FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE. *TR

HONDA REP INSISTED THIS WOULD NOT JUST HAPPEN, BUT IT DID, AS I WAS IN VEHICLE AND THE DRIVER. AFTER HAVING CAR INSPECTED, THEY INFORMED US THEY IT WAS IMPACT RELATED. THERE WERE NO DAMAGES, DENTS OR ANYTHING TO SUPPORT THIS "THEORY". THEY REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING TO THE CAR EXCEPT WANT TO CHARGE ME A FEE FOR THIS SERVICE. THE ESTIMATE GIVEN TO TAKE CARE OF MY VEHICLE WAS $6,500.00. DID I FAIL TO MENTION THAT PASSENGER FRONT AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY, DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT WAS A SO CALLED "IMPACT". HONDA HAS NOT DONE ANYTHING TO MAKE RESTITUTION IN ANY WAY, CLOSED OUR FILE AND LEFT US TO TAKE CARE OF IT. REFUSED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FRO A HONDA PRODUCT. *TR
