My takata air bag has been replaced twice by honda recalls. Unfortunately, the replacement airbag is another takata airbag. Does that make sense? My question is: why is honda replacing defective takata airbags with takata airbags? Since takata is continuing to manufacture defective airbags. I have no confidence in the airbag in my honda. Shouldn't honda use another airbag manufactured by another company to replace…
