2008 Acura RDX airbag problems

AIR BAGS

THE SRS WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN ON FOR OVER A YEAR. WE HAD THE 2 RECALLS 2016 & 2019 DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG REPAIRED AT ACURA OF DAYTON IN OCTOBER 2019, AND THEY RESET THE WARNING LIGHT. IT CAME BACK ON WITHIN A FEW DAYS. THE CODE IS 31-21 INCREASED RESISTANCE L/S AIRBAG INFLATOR. I'VE ALSO BEEN TOLD THE AIRBAG WON'T DEPLOY IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE RECALL THESE, AS I SEE OTHER COMPLAINTS.

TAKATA RECALL MY 2008 ACURA RDX WAS A PART OF THE TAKATA AIR BAG INFLATOR RECALL AND WAS APPARENTLY REPAIRED ON JANUARY 20TH OF 2017. HOWEVER, THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON IN MY 2008 ACURA RDX ON 7/27/2018 WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AS I STARTED THE VEHICLE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE ACURA DEALERSHIP IN WEXFORD, PA ON 8/4/18, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR WAS OPEN CAUSING THE SRS SYSTEM TO DEFAULT (CODE #32-21). MEANING THAT MY AIRBAG SAFETY SYSTEM WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, DUE TO THE FAULTY AIRBAG INFLATOR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN, AND I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE RESOLVED BY A FOLLOW UP RECALL FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG INFLATORS FOR ALL CARS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALL. TO MY UNDERSTANDING, WHEN MY DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR WAS REPLACED/REPAIRED BACK IN 2017, THEY REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR AS WELL. SO I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MAKE SURE THAT I CAN GET THIS FAULTY SYSTEM REPLACED THROUGH A RECALL OF BOTH AIRBAG INFLATORS FOR THE 2008 ACURA RDX (BOTH MEANING: DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE AIR BAG INFLATORS). PLEASE SEE ATTACHED INVOICE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
