RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA REGARDING PASSENGER AIRBAGS. IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER ON 7/7/2016 TO ARRANGE REPAIRS. HAD REPAIRS SCHEDULED FOR 7/15/2016. APPOINTMENT WAS CANCELLED DUE TO PARTS BEING ON BACK-ORDER. FOLLOWED-UP WITH LOCAL DEALER ON 7/19/2016 FOR UPDATED STATUS. DEALER COULD NOT GIVE ESTIMATE WHEN REPLACEMENT PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE. LOCAL DEALER HAS BEEN VERY PROFESSIONAL AND POLITE, DESCRIBING THE SITUATION. UNFORTUNATELY, MY HONDA IS NOT SAFE PER NHTSA RECALL 16V-344 AND IS CAUSING A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE. ADDITIONALLY, HONDA DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE ABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. AS A LONG TIME HONDA OWNER (1996), I AM DISAPPOINTED.

I OWN A 2006 CRV WITH UNDER 33000 MILES, I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF THIS VEHICLE AS I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. SO ALL OF A SUDDEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY VSA, ABS, ENGINE, TPS (TRIANGLE EXPLANATION POINT SYMBOL) AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON. I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND I'M TOLD THE VSA MODULE NEEDS REPLACING! COSTING $2400. WOW! THAT'S EXPENSIVE. I THINK THIS PART SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED CONSIDERING THE SEVERITY! THIS PART IS VITAL AND HOW HAS $2400 BURNING A WHOLE IN THERE POCKET? PLEASE HELP! THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!
