The air bag light flashing saying airbag is off. The electrical system shut off, radio flashed on and off. The steering lost its power and the head lights shut off then everything would come back on. This happened multiple times, I could not control the steering, very unsafe and scary. Car is available for inspection upon request.

Also, had my car in the repair shop 3 times because of following reaons: When accelerating from 0-35 mph it makes a grinding noise. Had it hooked up to a diagnostic machine 3 times and the noise was noticed, but never resolved.

Takata recall- took 2 years to get a solution letter, all while I could have been killed driving my car. No alternative transportation provided. Unable to have passengers in front seat.

Takata recall - it has been over six months since I was put on the list for the passenger side airbag recall. I contacted Honda right away as I had just had the driver side one replaced that took almost 3 months. We only have 1 vehicle in our family and my Fit is not big enough for my family. I spoke with Honda about getting a rental as we cannot use the front seat safely and was denied a rental and when I asked for an appeal I was just put on hold and told no. I feel that Honda has handle this part of the recall poorly and in my case severely affected what my family and I can do. They claim I have 5 seats which would be great if the back seat held 2 regular sized adults let alone 2 teenagers and an adult.

Takata recall; they notified me last may, that my auto might be covered by the recall. Thus far, they have done nothing. I feel like they should at least disconnect the air bag for my families safety, rather than us driving a time bomb. If they cannot repair this defect, they should make some form of correction; either purchase the auto, supply something safe to drive. I hate to think the government department that is responsible for our transportation safety, would just continue to let american citizens be injured, disabled, or killed; when we purchased and paid for in goof faith to be a reliable safe product. I fear for my family to use the auto, but I cannot afford to just park it, and purchase another, till someone does something. Might I also mention, that everyone is aware of the issue, and the value of the auto is minimal now.

Takata recall I got the recall email from Honda in March of 2016 saying that replacement parts would be available in the summer of 2016. It stated that Honda would contact me when parts for my Fit were available. Considering that the air bags deploy and spray shrapnel into people's faces and eyes, it would seem urgent to get these replacement airbags to Honda's customers. To date, I have heard nothing further from Honda. I can't sell this car because it is a "recall" car and should not drive it for years and years with the defect/maiming airbags. Why it my safety not more important to Honda" why isn't the government forcing them to make timely repairs"

Takata recall dear sir/madam, I send this message because I have no further instruction about recall of my Fit sport 2011, whose has takata airbag problem. Initial instruction shows replacement part will arrive around fall 2016, but we have no postal/electric notification about further actions. I contacted the nearest Honda dealer but there is no information neither (even no reply to my email). I hope someone could let me know what is happening and what I can do for this issue. Thank you.

- Bonfall, CA, USA

Takata recall: I received a letter from Honda on 3/26/2016 informing me that my airbag was defective and was recalled. The letter stated they would send me another letter soon informing me when I could get it fixed. I never heard back from them, so I called them on 7/18/2016. They said that I could get it fixed by late September at the latest and that I would receive a second letter informing me when I could get it fixed. Now it is 11/2/2016 and I still have not heard anything from Honda. If my car truly has a dangerous airbag that needs to be replaced, I think that more than 7 months is longer than I should have to wait to get it fixed. I want them to fix my airbag as soon as possible.
