Passenger air bag lights continuously on. Took to mechanic, mechanic said it-??s most likely a bad sensor or a wiring issue that-??s causing the failure. That-??s all I could find out without tearing into it any further. He ran all the tests and nothing shows that the sensor is bad. But he said it doesn-??t make sense that it-??s showing it-??s bad. He is leaning towards wiring. Wiring"?" I haven-??t touched that.

Takata recall / propellant wafers I received a safety recall from Honda in June, 2016, regarding my 2007 Pilot. I promptly called the dealership, in June 2016, to schedule an appointment. I was notified that I could not make an appointment and they would call me. That was 9 months ago. According to the recall notice, the definition of reasonable period of time is 60 days. The notice says Honda suggests that I avoid having a passenger sit in the front passenger's seat. That is not a reasonable suggestion for nearly a year and counting.

I called South hills Honda, 3663 Washington rd, mcmurray, pa 15317 on October 12th, 2016 for passenger side air bag replacement and it has been over 2 months with no call back indicating this part is available for replacement. Honda knew that this part would need replaced when they replaced the same air bag in the drivers side. When I had drivers side replaced shh made we wait until I threatened to contact Honda motor company as to my having to wait for two plus hours on a scheduled 15 minute repair. Now Honda and shh are requesting I keep the front passenger seat unoccupied while I wait for this repair, except they are not being responsible to get this done in a timely manner.

We made an appointment in August with the bob rohrman Honda in lafayette, in to replace the passenger side airbag. At that time, they told us that the part was not available, but that they would call us to let us know when it was and to make arrangements for the repair. Four months later, we had heard nothing. My wife called today and discovered that they had the part but did not call us. How could such an important safety issue be disregarded by the dealer?
