Car was sitting still in traffic on hwy. was hit directly from behind at 76 mph. The gas tank was crushed and car exploded into flames . Passenger could not be rescued. Left front panel hit, air bag did not inflate.

Got this vehicle about a year and a half ago at full price from local dealership. It looks like it has been pieced together with many other hondas. The check engine light has been on ever since. The car keeps yet no camera. Just tried to get inspected. So far charged 2500 but was given a pass on inspection only for the light to come back on. I noticed on the back of repair paperwork this car has 2 airbag recalls. I feel duped I feel like this is attempted murder. I feel scared and sad. Something must be done with used car purchases

There was no incident involved. The airbags on passenger side are not working, according to alert on dash. I inherited this car from my deceased husband who purchased the car in Paramus, NJ. I thought this problem was fixed by the dealer at some point, but evidently was not. The car is now registered in NC, where I live. Thank you for any help you can give me to correct this problem.

Air bag warning light had randomly come on/off 3-4 for only a few hours since last airbag recall in 2018. Was so random and brief never gave it much thought. But it came on early July 2022 and stayed on. Took it in to Honda dealer Thurs July 14 for diagnostic check. Was told there was a defect in the passenger side/seat airbag and this was not a recall and would cost approx $900 to replace. Part on back order. Honda service rep stated that when the warning light is on none of the airbags are functional. I Did not order part on the 14th d/t considered buying another car which I quickly decided against. After picking up my car after hours on the 14th I notice the warning light is no longer on. After playing phone tag w/ dealer on Fri and Mon July 15,18 I drive to the dealership on 7-19 to order the part and to get answers on the warning light to no avail. …

Takata recall- our 2010 CR-v was involved in a 3-car accident on a city road with speed limit of 35 MPH. A car entering the city street from another road cut off the driver traveling on the road in vehicle #1 and v#1 came to an abrupt stop. The car that entered the road, sped off and was not hit by v#1. Vehicle #2 rear-ended v#1. Our vehicle (v#3) rear-ended vehicle #2. There is significant damage to the front end of our CR-v. We are concerned that the driver's airbag was not deployed. The police officer called to the scene also commented that he was surprised that the airbag did not deploy. Thankfully, our daughter did not hit the steering wheel, but the force was significant enough that we are concerned that this airbag is not functioning properly. We were not aware of any recalls on these airbags until we received notification in the mail literally the day following her accident. …
