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.

Constantly having electrical problems. We went on a vacation and came back to find the battery completely dead. Took it in and they diagnosed the problem as a bad hands free unit which was replaced. Now we are having all kinds of electrical problems. Each time we turn the car on the auto setting toggle between driver 1 and driver 2 settings. Occasionally you hear a pop on the speakers when you start the engine. Now we have the check airbag system light come on and won't go off. This car has been a money pit with electrical problems that nobody seems to be able to diagnose. We have spent over $1000 trying to figure it out with no luck.
