THE RECALL NOTICE HAS NOW BEEN EXPANDED TO ALL 2006 HONDA CRV'S, NOT JUST LOCATION SPECIFIC VEHICLES. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT HAVE STILL NOT RECEIVED AN OFFICIAL RECALL FOR AIRBAGS. ALARMING AND FRUSTRATING, CONSIDERING PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAIMED, PARALYZED, AND KILLED BY THESE VERY HONDA-INSTALLED TAKATA AIRBAGS. THEY SAY THEY ARE BEING "PRO-ACTIVE" WHICH IS AT BEST A JOKE. THEY NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS AND REPLACE THEM IN ALL HONDA VEHICLES WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS. HONDA AND TAKATA BOTH SUCK FOR NOT DOING THE RIGHT THING! *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS CONSTANTLY NEED TO BE REPLACED. GOING THROUGH MY 3RD REPLACEMENT IN ABOUT A YEAR. USUALLY ONE GOES OUT AND THEN SHORTLY AFTER, THE OTHER ONE GOES OUT. I HAD THEM BOTH REPLACED ABOUT A MONTH AND HALF AGO. I WAS LEAVING WORK AND TURNED ON THE HEADLIGHTS AND WITHIN A SECOND, THEY BOTH WENT OUT. IT WAS DARK SO I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON.
