TAKATA RECALL: I JUST CHECKED THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL VIN LIST AND FOUND MY DAUGHTER'S CAR LISTED. I PROCEEDED TO DOUBLE CHECK AT HONDA WEBSITE TO CONFIRM. I CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART. I CHECKED THEN CHECKED WITH HONDA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND THEY SAID THE PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE THIS SUMMER. THIS IS UNSAT. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED A LETTER YET, BUT A VEHICLE IS RECALLED THE PARTS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE NOW! THIS IS DANGEROUS RECALL.AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE CAR COMPANIES ARE DRAGGING THEIR FEET, AND HOPING DRIVERS WILL JUST FORGET ABOUT THE TIME BOMB IN THEIR CAR. LET'S HOLD THEIR FEET TO TO FIRE, NHTSA!
