    I am trying to find out if we have takata airbags that are subject to the recall. My husband has contacted and gone to our local dealer to find out what airbags we have, and they just keep telling him that they are okay. I have tried to enter the vin number through the auto airbag settlement.com website powered by nhtsa, and it will not go through.

When i'm at a complete stop and attempt to proceed through a green light the car seems to not want to get gas. I'm not sure what the problem is. Can someone please help me?

    Takata recall. Our honda accord is just over 15 years old and apparently is not subject to the general air bag recall as it is not listed on the recall list. Why is it not covered? The information we have received says that high temperatures (we live in tucson, az) and age are indicators of possible failure.

    The "srs" light has turned on in the instrument panel. Honda is trying to charge me $360 to diagnose the problem when it is obviously air bag/seat belt related. The light remains on during motion and while the engine is at idle. My vehicle is at 117,464 miles. My question is if honda has the right to charge me to diagnose something that is related to safety equipment.

The local garage where i have my car inspected said this was part of the airbag recall but honda won't check it without $300 up front and i just can't afford it. Maybe i will finally get it fixed under this class action lawsuit. I would like to have…

    Takata recall. I brought my car in on 5/18/2015 for the recall on the driver's airbag at honda redwood city, ca. I was in an accident on the freeway on 7/16/2016 with frontal impact going 35-50 mph and my air bag did not deploy. Based on the speed and location of impact i believe the airbags should have deployed.
