I received "takata recall" a notice from auto airbag settlement, settlement administrator po box 3207 portland, or 97208-3207 as a current owner and I will try to contact the administrator. Also I will call the Honda company about this vehicle. Right now the light indicating defective airbag is always on and I am deeply concerned which I just discovered that this car has a manufacturer recall number S53 and NHTSA recall number 12V-436 recall status recall incomplete.
Takata recall. The contact owned a 2010 Honda Element. While driving approximately 20 mph, a second vehicle crashed into the front driver's side of the contact's vehicle. The side curtain air bags failed to deploy. The driver and rear driver side occupant sustained multiple lacerations to the face and neck. The contact indicated that the injuries were caused by debris from the air bag deploying. The vehicle was destroyed and towed. A police report was filed. The cause of the failure was not determined. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The VIN was unknown. The failure mileage was 84,000.
The contact owns a 2010 Honda Element. The contact received a notification of NHTSA campaign number: 14V351000 (air bags). The contact stated that the part needed to remedy the vehicle was unavailable. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure.
Honda has been non responsive to NHTSA recall 14V-351. After receiving the recall notice which said the defect could kill or injure me I called the dealership to schedule the replacement of the airbag. Honda refused to schedule an appointment because the parts were back ordered. Since then they have never called or contacted me. Each week I call and they repeat the back order scenario and refuse to make an appointment for the recall. I have tried to contact Honda customer service. I have not been able to get through. I hang up after holding in excess of 30 minutes. It appears that they are delaying the recall. The dealer involved is dublin Honda, dublin, California.

At this time my car has a recall on its airbag. Recently I received a letter to call my local Honda dealer. In calling I was told that the car could not be fixed till December 10th and to call the day before to make sure the part was even available. This is unacceptable as it effects the safety of my entire family. I wish to know what can be done to rectify this matter.
Crash pushed car off the road. Airbags deployed but did not inflate. Airbags had crude cut out circles at the end of wires. Did someone cut out the bag inflators?..updated 06/25/14 updated 06/30/2014 updated 12/30/15
