TAKATA RECALL OUR FAMILY VEHICLE HAD A SAFETY RECALL ON FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER'S AIR BAGS. WE RECEIVED A LOANER CAR FROM UNIVERSITY HONDA DEALERSHIP IN DAVIS, CA, ON 07.20.2016 UNTIL OUR VEHICLE WAS FIXED. WE DROPPED OUR VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP ON 07.30.2016 AND DEALER, ON TWO OCCASIONS, VERBALLY AND IN WRITING, CONFIRMED THAT BOTH AIR BAGS WOULD BE FIXED THAT DAY. HOWEVER, THEY ONLY CORRECTED THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG AND REQUESTED WE RETURN THE LOANER CAR AS OUR VEHICLE, ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, WAS NOW SAFE TO DRIVE. WE EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS OUR FAMILY CAR AND WE UTILIZE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BUT TO NO AVAIL. WE ARE NOW DRIVING OUR VEHICLE WHICH IS UNSAFE FOR THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER AND POSSIBLY OTHER OCCUPANTS IN CASE THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG DEPLOYS. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH HONDA USA SINCE 07.30.2016. IT TOOK THEM ALMOST FIVE WEEKS TO RESPOND TO MY CLAIM THAT THEY INITIALLY STATED WOULD TAKE THEM ONLY A WEEK TO REPLY. THEY DENIED MY CLAIM, 04845132, STATING THAT I DO NOT NEED TO UTILIZE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BASED ON THE SIZE OF MY FAMILY. THIS IS A VERY WEAK EXCUSE ON THEIR PART AS THE VEHICLE I PURCHASED WAS AND IS INTENDED TO BE UTILIZED BY FIVE PEOPLE NOT FOUR. IT SEEMS HONDA IS CHOOSING PROFITS OVER PASSENGER SAFETY. WHAT I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO DO IS OFFER ME A FREE RENTAL UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS FULLY SAFE FOR ALL PASSENGERS.

THIS MORNING (AUG 6, 2016), MYSELF AND MY DAD MET WITH AN ACCIDENT AND WAS DRIVING HONDA INSIGHT 2011 LX MODEL. NOTE THAT MY DAD WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. LET ME DESCRIBE THE ACCIDENT. I WAS ABOUT TO PARK MY CAR IN FRONT OF SPROUTS GROCERY STORE IN THE PARKING AVAILABLE SPOT JUST FACING SPROUTS. SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT I WAS ABOUT TO PARK MY CAR AND THE SPEED WAS AROUND 5MPH. ALL OF A SUDDEN, I COULD FEEL MY INSIGHT ENGINE EXPERIENCING SUDDEN ACCELERATION AUTOMATICALLY AND THEN I WAS TRYING TO APPLY THE LEG BRAKE TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T SPEED UP. SUDDENLY, THE INSIGHT STARTED SPEEDING UP AND DIDN'T STOP EVEN AFTER SLAMMING ON THE BRAKE AND IT JUMPED ON THE PARKING CURB AND FINALLY HIT THE CONCRETE PILLAR IN FRONT OF SPROUTS RESULTING IN DEPLOYING THE DRIVER AIR-BAG AND THE PASSENGER AIR-BAGS. MY WINDSHIELD DEVELOPED A DEEP CRACK AND I BELIEVE MY CAR IS GOING TO BE TOTALLED. WITH THAT, IT DIDN'T STOP, AFTER HITTING SO HARD THE CONCRETE WALL, REMEMBER THE CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE MODE AND NOT IN REVERSE MODE, ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE CAR STARTED MOVING BACKWARDS AND EVEN DIDN'T STOP AFTER SLAMMING ON THE LEG BRAKE. THEN I CAME OUT OF THE SHOCK AND APPLIED MY HAND BRAKE AND TURN OFF THE IGNITION TO STOP THE CAR MOVING BACKWARDS. LUCKILY, THIS CRASH DIDN'T CAUSE ANY BODILY INJURY TO ANY THIRD PARTIES BUT I HAD SOME BRUISES ON MY RIGHT ARM DEVELOPED DUE TO SOME METAL PIECES FROM THE TAKATA AIR-BAG.
