I HAVE NOT HAD THIS VEHICLE IN 10 YEARS. I HAVE WRITTEN HONDA SIX TIMES AND CALLED A DOZEN TIMES. IF SOMEONE HAS THIS VEHICLE AND GETS INJURED DUE TO NON-NOTIFICATION OF A RECALL, AND I SHOW HOW LONG I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO STOP THESE LETTERS COMING TO MY HOUSE SO YOU CAN FIND THE RIGHT PERSON, SOMEONE WILL BE SERIOUSLY LIABLE.
TAKATA INFLATORS: AFTER HITTING A ROADSIDE OBJECT AT A COUNTY ROAD TURNING INTO A COMMUNITY, THE STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED. THAT CAN BE ACCEPTED, BUT THE AIRBAG WAS NOT INFLATED. I BURSTED, NOT BLOWED OUT SIMPLY WITH THE BAG ITSELF WITHOUT AIR. AFTER TALKING TO HONDA, THEY REPEAT THAT THE INFLATION PROCESS COME AND GO QUICKLY. I KNOW THAT IT COME AND GO QUICKLY. BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT IT WAS NOT INFLATED AT ALL. AS A SCIENTIST AND ENGINEER WHO KNOWS HOW TO DO EXPERIMENTS, WHO

WE WERE AT A COMPLETE STOP WAITING TO TURN INTO OUR CHILD'S SCHOOL PARKING LOT. WE WERE REAR ENDED BY A VEHICLE TRAVELING AT LEAST 40 MPH, POSSIBLY FASTER, WHO MADE NO ATTEMPT TO STOP. WE WERE PUSHED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, AND STRUCK A SECOND VEHICLE. WHEN WE CAME TO REST, BOTH THE DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGER SEATS WERE IN A FULL RECLINE POSITION, AND WOULD HAVE CAUSED SERIOUS INJURY TO OUR CHILD HAD SHE BEEN IN THE BACK SEAT AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL - MY VIN # IS SHOWING 0 RECALLS, HOWEVER, I HAVE HAD TO GO IN TWICE FOR A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. WHY IS YOUR WEBSITE RECORDING 0 RECALLS? I WAS IN A FOUR CAR ACCIDENT IN 2016 (I BELIEVE, MAY HAVE BEEN LATE 2015) AND MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WAS 1 CAR IN FRONT THAT DIDN'T GET HIT BAD, BUT THE TWO VEHICLES BEHIND ME HAD THEIR AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I HAVE THE SAME HONDA PILOT TODAY, BUT IT WORRIES ME THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED BUT DIDN'T DUE TO THE ISSUE WITH THE INFLATORS.
