Takata inflator: "Honda suggests that you avoid having a passenger sit in the front passenger's seat until the recall repair has been performed." I received the recall notice (16V-346) in July 2016, and as if September 1, 2016, the status was "recall status: Recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available." It is unfair that Honda owners must avoid the front passenger seat of the vehicle for months, and remain uncompensated by the manufacturer. My family had to take a much less fuel-efficient vehicle on two already-planned trips (easton, pa, to erie, pa; easton, pa, to ottawa, Canada), as our ony other choice was for one spouse to sit in the back seat of our Honda Accord. We also have not yet received a remedy for recall 16V-056, another airbag-related issue.

Takata recall I know a lot of cars are affected by it is taking so long to get my airbags fixed. I have had passengers to sit in the back in fear of having their face mutilated by my air bags which are there for safety, not danger. Ridiculous.
