"takata recall" I received a letter from american Honda in March, 2016 about a safety recall notice. Under the section "what should you do?" the letter states the remedy parts will be available in summer 2016 and "Acura will send another letter when parts become available" I never received this second letter so on October 24 I called american Honda Acura client relations and was told it was my responsibility to locate the parts and have them installed. I called my local Acura dealer and was told they have the parts and can install immediately. American Honda is not handling this recall with the life threatening urgency it deserves and is putting life's at risk.
