“Takata recall: I recently purchased my vehicle from a used car dealership. Shortly afterwards, I was mailed a hard copy of an airbag settlement class action lawsuit involving honda motors and takata. I have the notice in my possession, citing my vehicle as one of the declared recipients within the settled class action lawsuit. I am simply conducting my due diligence in reporting my vehicle as it has become my property and hence, my new problem.”
NHTSA complaint #11053842, filed 2017-12, 55,072 miles“Constantly having electrical problems. We went on a vacation and came back to find the battery completely dead.
