    Takata recall i had problems with getting the key to turn in the ignition. It eventually failed. I was informed by a professional that it was the key. I had the key replaced. Honda tried to charge me for the key knowing that there was a recall. Too, my headlights have always been very dimmed. I have bought several replacements. They still appear very dim.

Fortunately there were no injuries but the air bags did not deploy. The entire front end is crumpled and still the air bags did not deploy. I thought my daughter was driving a safe car. *tr

    All dash lights go out on my 1999 honda accord when the headlights are turned on. A safety recall was done for this problem caused by a defected multiplex control unit on the honda accord years 2000 to 2004. Why are older accords not covered under this recall since the same defective part was installed on them?*tr
