TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM HONDA THAT MY AIRBAG HAS BEEN RECALLED. I CALLED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE IT FIX. I WAS TOLD BY SUPERIOR HONDA THAT IT WILL BE A FEW WEEKS BEFORE THE PART IS AVAILABLE AND ANOTHER FEW WEEKS UNTIL THEY CAN GET MY CAR IN TO BE FIXED. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL SINCE IT WAS JUST MY PASSENGER AIRBAG. I EXPLAINED TO THE SERVICE TECH THAT IF IT WASN'T A BIG DEAL THERE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON THE PART. HE THEN TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE HE COULD DO FOR ME. HE COULD NOT PROVIDE ME WITH A RENTAL CAR BUT CONTINUED TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS NO BIG DEAL AND IF I HAD ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS TO CALL HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE. I UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG BUT I FEEL LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE ME WITH A DATE OF WHEN THIS ISSUE WOULD BE RESOLVED. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS RECALL EFFECTED MANY VEHICLES BUT THIS ISSUE IS NOT BEING RESOLVED AS FAST AS IT SHOULD BE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND MANY OF THEM HAVE BEEN PROVIDE WITH RENTAL CARS DUE TO THE FACT IT GOING TO TAKE LONGER THAN NORMAL TO FIX. I FEEL LIKE SUPERIOR HONDA COULD HAVE DONE MORE FOR ME INSTEAD OF TELLING ME THAT IT WAS "NO BIG DEAL". I AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH THIS DEALERSHIP.
