Example complaints

“Takata recall my airbag light keeps on coming on for many years. The Acura dealer does not know the issue and will not repair the airbags until there is a recall of the airbags. The light has come on probably once per year (I've owned the car for 7 years).”
NHTSA complaint #10821827, filed 2016-01, 99,999 miles“My airbag light came on for no reason - I had a mechanic reset it but it came back on few days later. I read on the internet that honda is recalling hondas & acuras for this type of problem , is this one of them ? Am I expecting a recall letter from honda in the mail soon ? Regards”
NHTSA complaint #10663005, filed 2014-12, 151,000 miles“This is a safety design failure whereby the front passenger can easily get their feet trapped and/or broken in an accident because some unknown oem piece of equipment is located where the feet normally go. It is probably part of some air bag assembly. The only exception, where this would not be a problem, is if the passenger had very small feet. This has not been reported to the dealer. This report is for an Acura RSX automobile. There is no selection for the Acura RSX automobile on this website (next page).”
