MY AIR BAG LIGHT CONSTANTLY STAYS ON. NO CODES COME UP WHEN AUTO REPAIR SHOP HOOKED IT UP SO I CAN'T EVEN GET A DIAGNOSIS AND ATTEMPT TO REPAIR. THE SAFETY HAZARD ASPECT WORRIES ME IMMENSELY BUT IT'S MY ONLY VEHICLE SO I'M FORCED TO DRIVE IT REGARDLESS. ALL AVAILABLE RECALLS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED. MY CAR HESITATED TO ACCELERATE AFTER I PUT IT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE WHEN I'M AT A COMPLETE STOP. THE TRANSMISSION ALSO HESITATES TO SWITCH GEARS TO ACCELERATE AT A NORMAL RATE TO SAFELY MERGE ONTO A ROAD OR INTERSTATE WHETHER I'M STOPPED FIRST OR TURN RIGHT IN AT A LOW SPEED AND ATTEMPT TO MERGE.

I HAVE ENTERED MY VIN NUMBER INTO THE TAKATA RECALL DATABASE, AND MY MOM HAS HELPED ME BY MAKING SEVERAL PHONE CALLS, AND TAKATA REPRESENTATIVES TOOK MY VIN NUMBER FROM MY MOM, AND NEVER BOTHERED TO SEND THE INFORMATION IN WHAT THEY DESCRIBED AS "LONG FORM" - SO UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME I WAS NEVER CONTACTED BY ANYONE AFTER THEY REPEATEDLY SENT ME THE TAKATA AIRBAG SETTLEMENT DATES, AND MY MOM AND MYSELF HAVE TRIED TIRELESSLY TO GIVE THEM MY INFORMATION, AND YET NO RESPONSE FROM ANYONE!! TAKATA AIRBASGS WERE THE ONES TO SEND ME THE CLASS ACTION SUIT INFORMATION TELLING ME THAT MY CAR IS DANGEROUS, AND THEY HAVE NEVER BOTHERED TO MAKE ANY CONTACT WITH ME AT ALL. THE FACT IS THAT I DID NOT HAVE AN ACTUAL INCIDENT WITH THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER I AM REACHING OUT TO NOTIFY SOMEONE WHO CAN HELP ME, AS TAKATA, AND HONDA HAVE NOT CONTACTED ME WITH ALL OF THE INFORMATION I HAVE GIVEN THEM ON LINE. THIS, WHEN THEY INITIATED THE CLASS ACTION SUIT TO NOTIFY ME OF A SITUATION THAT COULD BE FATAL TO ME AS THE DRIVER OF MY VEHICLE, OR A PRECIOUS FAMILY MEMBER OR FRIEND SITTING IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT.

"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE DEALER HAS TOLD ME AIR BAG WAS COMPLETED, IT WAS SOLD TO ME WITH AN OPEN ENTRY OR QUESTIONABLE COMPLETION. UPON DRIVING THE CAR I FOUND IT FELT SHAKY & WAS TOLD THEY WOULD FIX ANY PROBLEMS HOWEVER NOW THAT I HAVE TAKEN IT IN TWICE AND IT HAS STAYED THERE OVER A WEEK, AND THEN TAKEN HOME (WITHOUT MY APPROVAL) BY SERVICE MANAGER, WHEN I STILL COMPLAINED THAT IT DOESN'T FEEL SO STABLE AND MAYBE WE SHOULD CALL OFF THE DEAL OR TRADE FOR ANOTHER CAR, I WAS TOLD.."DEAL IS DONE, THE CAR IS YOURS, WE'VE SPENT $$ TO FIX THINGS". MY RESPONSE WAS "WHATEVER ITEMS DONE WERE ITEMS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE PRE-SALE AND WERE AGREED TO BE DONE". THE AXLE ENDED UP BEING BAD AND SOMETHING STILL FEELS LIKE THE CAR STAGGERS HOWEVER I GOT TIRED OF COMPLAINING. I'M NOT ENTIRELY SURE THAT I'M DRIVING A SAFE CAR AND THAT IT WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO AS NOW I OWE A LOAN & HAVE BEEN DRIVING CAR. MY MAIN CONCERN HAS ALWAYS BEEN SAFETY. I BROUGHT ALL THIS TO THE TABLE PRE PURCHASE. I BROUGHT CAR IN AGAIN BECAUSE IT WAS SHAKY, STRUGGLING & STAGGERING TO GO UP HILL, WOULD NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATE, AND WAS HAVING A BURNT SMELL. WHAT THEY FOUND WAS BAD AXLE AND SOMETHING WITH ROTOR (WHICH WAS NOT CAUGHT ON FIRST TIME I BROUGHT IN THAT IT SPENT A WEEK THERE). CAR FAX DID NOT INDICATE ACCIDENT BUT DRIVABILITY SEEMS QUESTIONABLE. I BOUGHT CAR 12/31/17, BROUGHT BACK IN FIRST WEEK TO COMPLETE THE OPEN ITEMS (ONE BEING THE AIR BAG ISSUE) I BROUGHT ALL CONCERNS UP PRE-PURCHASE W/AGREEMENT THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF ALL. I BROUGHT IT IN & IT REMAINED ABOUT A WEEK. PICKED UP 01/13/18. HAD TO BRING IN AGAIN 01/30/18 DUE TO STAGGERING & BURNT SMELL. PICKED UP 2/02/18 & WHEN I BROUGHT UP THAT I THINK WE SHOULD JUST TRADE CAR AS I FELT MAYBE I GOT BURNED, THEY SAID: CAR IS YOURS, YOU BOUGHT IT (IN A NUTSHELL). I HAVE ALL EMAILS OF CONCERNS BROUGHT UP. JUST WANT TO BE SURE.
