PRIOR TO PURCHASE, THE RECALL AND POSSIBLE PROBLEM EXISTED. I WAS LED TO BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED. IF IT WAS IN FACT CORRECTED, SHOULDN'T MY VEHICLE NOT BE ON THE RECALL LIST OR WAS IT JUST REPAIRED ON PAPER, IN ORDER TO CONCLUDE THE SALE. SHOULDN'T THEY HAVE NOTIFIED NHTSA, IF THEY HAD IN FACT MADE THE REPAIRS?

WE ARE EXPECTED A WAIT OF POSSIBLY MONTHS AND FORGO USING THE PASSENGER SEAT. THIS IS UNREASONABLE SINCE WE USE OUR AUTO EVERYDAY AND MANY TIMES WITH MULTIPLE PASSENGERS WHO CAN NOT CLIMB TO THE REAR TO USE THE SMALL SEATS. ALSO, I AM SURE THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IS ALSO A TAKATA BAG. SHOULD WE STOP DRIVING OUR AUTO ALL TOGETHER? I THINK WE SHOULD BE GIVEN A LOANER IF THIS IS THE CASE.

AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY IN NOVEMBER OF 2014. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET CHECKED OUT, WE WERE INFORMED THAT WE NEEDED TO REPLACE IT. WE WERE THEN INFORMED THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL OF AFFECTED AIRBAGS. ADDITIONALLY, IT WOULD COST $900+ TO REPLACE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF AN OBVIOUS DEFECT IS PLACED ON THE CONSUMER RATHER THAN THE MANUFACTURER. THERE IS NO REASON THAT A VEHICLE THAT HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND IS LESS THAN FIVE YEARS OLD SHOULD BE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I AM SURE THAT WE ARE NOT THE ONLY PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE TO GET INJURED BECAUSE THEY CAN'T AFFORD A $900 FIX FOR A PROBLEM THAT THEY DIDN'T CREATE?

COMING OUT OF A 30MPH ZONE INTO A 55MPH ZONE -- I HAD ACCELERATED TO ABOUT 45MPG WHEN I HIT AN ICY SECTION OF A THE ROAD. I LOST CONTROL OF OUR HONDA PILOT ON A GRADUAL TURN IN THE ROAD. THE PILOT TURNED SIDEWAYS. I QUICKLY TRIED TO REGAIN CONTROL AS THE VEHICLE POSITIONED ITSELF FORWARD, BUT HEADED FOR THE DITCH. STILL OUT OF CONTROL, A UTILITY POLE WAS UNAVOIDABLE. I HIT THE POLE HEAD ON AT A 45 MPH SPEED. THE VEHICLE SNAPPED THE UTILITY POLE IN HALF AND THE VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP AFTER 20 FEET. NEITHER AIRBAG DEPLOYED FOR ME OR MY PASSENGER. THERE IS EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE. THE VEHICLE COULD NOT HAVE HIT THE UTILITY POLE ANY MORE DEAD CENTER ON. AND YET, AT 45 MPH AND DRIVING THROUGH A UTILITY POLE, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. WE WALKED AWAY FROM THE ACCIDENT. BUT, AT WHAT SPEED AND HOW MUCH MORE HEAD ON COULD WE HAVE GOTTEN FOR THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY? *TR
