Takata airbag inflator. Received notice of recall in July. We called the dealer, Honda of annapolis, to schedule it but were told the part was not in and we should call back in 2 weeks. Called 5 more times over the next 2 months and were put off every time. Finally today they have the part but can't install it for over a week and the repair will take 3 to 4 hours. We contacted american Honda for a loaner as advertised but were told by rosa that because we have a back seat, she could not authorize it. This seems to be in direct conflict with the terms of the recall posted at hondaairbaginfo.com where notice is given that loaner vehicles are available in cases of delays.

Takata recall: I took my car in to get the airbag replaced per the recall notice. My airbag malfunction light came on just after the replacement. I took the car back and they wanted $125 just to diagnose the problem. A garage said it was the seat belt buckle causing the problem. In the manual it clearly states that "Honda will repair or replace, at its option, any Honda seat belt component that fails to function properly during its normal use. This includes all parts and labor charges." My greenwich, ct Honda said they had never heard of this warranty and they would not honor it. I called Honda America, 2 people said it was covered, the final person said no. I have read forums and talked to many others, as you can see that have this problem. It is a safety issue and my airbags will not deploy in an accident. If it is the sensor, that is a component of the seat belt. It is clearly faulty on these cars. On forums many people have had this problem and some Honda have fixed it free of charge, and others will not. My garage gave me a quote of $282 for part and $95 labor.

We have waited over 60 days for the passenger air bag part to arrive at the dealer. The recall notice says we may file a complaint after 60 days. The recall notice says we should not occupy the front seat. Seems like a long time to be waiting with this restriction on driving. Thank you for your help.

Takata recall: I took my car in to get the airbag replaced per the recall notice. My airbag malfunction light came on just after the replacement. It comes in when the seat belt if not on and car is started. It does not come on when the seat belt is already strapped in. I took my car back in today to address the passenger side recall and asked the dealer to look into this. The dealership wanted a $132 diagnostic fee to do that and mentioned that this was not covered by the recall. However, the light conveniently came on right after the previous recall service was done.
