She had the airbag recall repaired on 6/24/17 but airbag warning light is still on. The dealer states there is a "front weight sensor failure" and needs to be repaired for cost of $882.32. Honda indicates this part is not part of the recall and will not pay for repairs. I believe the airbags shoud be…

    We've been calling gunn honda in san antonio tx since august of 2016. Since then, at each call we've heard "the parts won't be in for two weeks, and we'll call you".

They won't say how long repairs will take. I fear as this is a recall…

    Scheduled appointment with honda dealer two weeks in advance. Showed up for appointment and dealer stated that part has not arrived. No parts for the recall! My understanding is that supposedly the part should be ordered by the dealer using the vehicle vin number. Part should be reserved for that specific vehicle. Wasted my time taking vehicle to honda dealer. Still they haven't call me to speak with service manager…

    Takata recall. Received notice in july 20016 re: recall. States that no one should sit in the passenger seat. I have a wife and 2 children--what am i supposed to do? I've called honda every week for the past month. They say sorry, but are of no help. The part has not even been manufactured yet. They are very bad at communicating and customer service. I need reliable transportation for my family.
