From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at …

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN I RAN MY "VIN" NUMBER ON YOUR WEBSITE, I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS. NEXT I TOOK MY CR-V INTO NORM REEVES HONDA IN IRVINE, CA. ON 12/9/2019 FOR MY 10:30 AM APPOINTMENT. AFTER THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IINFLATOR RECALL PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED, I PICKED MY CR-V UP AND WENT HOME. MY CR-V HAD (115,230) MILES ON IT AT THAT POINT. MY NEXT AIR BAG PROBLEM OCCURRED ON 8/18/2020 WHEN MY CR-V HAD (116,359) MILES ON IT. NOW I HAD THE "SIDE AIR BAG OFF" LIGHT COME ON. IT WOULD COME ON AND THEN GO AWAY AND THEN COME BACK ON AGAIN EVENTUALLY. AT THAT POINT, I CALLED UP NORM REEVES HONDA IN IRVINE AGAIN TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS CHECKED OUT. ON 8/25/2020 AT (116,418) MILES, I DROPPED OFF MY CR-V FOR MY 10:30 AM APPOINTMENT. I HAD AN INKLING THAT THIS NEW AIR BAG LIGHT COMING ON MIGHT HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ORIGINAL AIR BAG RECALL THAT WAS TAKEN CARE OF. AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN CHECKED OUT, I WAS TOLD THAT ALL THE "DTC'S" WERE PULLED AND THAT THE "SIDE AIR BAG OFF LIGHT" HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ORIGINAL AIR BAG RECALL THEY TOOK CARE OF. ON MY WAY HOME, I NOTICED A NEW LIGHT HAD COME ON NOW, THE (SRS) LIGHT. IT WAS THEN THAT I IMMEDIATELY TURNED AROUND AND WENT BACK TO NORM REEVES TO INFORM THEM OF THIS.THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS LIGHT COMING ON AND THAT SOONER OR LATER IT WOULD HAVE COME ON, SOMEWHERE DOWN THE ROAD IN THE FUTURE. I QUESTIONED THIS AND FRANKLY HAD A DIFFICULT TIME BELIEVIN

SMOKE STARTED ARISING FROM THE STEERING COLUMN WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET DURING THE DAYTIME. DRIVER WAS NOT USING LIGHTS AT THE TIME AND WAS USING NORMAL OCCASIONAL TURN SIGNALS FOR A URBAN METROPOLITAN AREA. THE TURN SIGNAL WAS EVALUATED AND SHOWED MELTING OF THE TURN SIGNAL SWITCH AND THE TERMINAL HARNESS. THIS IS SIMILAR TO WHAT IS DESCRIBED IN NHTSA 12V-136 OR 12V-486. HONDA AMERICA AND HONDA DEALERSHIPS SAID THE 2002 HONDA CR-V WAS NOT INCLUDED, BECAUSE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. HOWEVER, THE MODEL AND YEAR OF THE CAR WERE INCLUDED AND HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS DESCRIBED AS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED RECALLS.

TAKATA RECALL I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE X5C FOR MY 2002 HONDA CR-V BUT HONDA HAS STATED IN 2 DIFFERENT PHONE CALLS THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO FIX MY CAR AT THIS TIME. DURING BOTH PHONE CALLS, THE HONDA REPRESENTATIVES TOLD ME NOT TO HAVE ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER FRONT SEAT. THE NHTSA WEBSITE LISTS THE 2002 CR-V AS ONE OF THE CARS THAT SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN EXCEPT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. MY DEALER, MENDENHALL AUTO IN JUNEAU, AK, HAS ADVISED ME THAT MY CR-V IS PART OF PHASE 5 AND THAT HONDA WILL NOT AUTHORIZE REPAIR OF MY VEHICLE AT THIS TIME. BASED ON THE INFORMATION FROM NHTSA AND HONDA, MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BUT NEITHER HONDA NOR THE AUTHORIZED DEALER IS WILLING TO REPAIR IT. MENDENHALL AUTO STATED IT WILL PROBABLY BE NEXT SUMMER BEFORE REPAIR WILL BE AUTHORIZED. HONDA REFUSED TO GIVE ME A TIMELINE ESTIMATE FOR REPAIR, JUST REPEATEDLY STATING THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN MORE INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING.

A STATE SAFETY INSPECTOR ADVISED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT IS COMING LOOSE AND COULD COMPLETELY BREAK LOOSE IN AN ACCIDENT. HE SAID IF IT GETS ANY LOOSER IT WILL NOT PASS A SAFETY INSPECTION (VIRGINIA). I HAVE OWNED CARS FOR OVER FORTY YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HEARD OF A CAR SEAT THAT WASN'T SECURED TO THE BODY OF THE CAR FOR THE LIFE OF THE CAR. THIS SPECIFIC DEFECT, RELATING TO HONDA CRV'S IS BROADLY REPORTED ON THE INTERNET. SHOULD A CAR SEAT POTENTIALLY BREAKING LOOSE IN AN ACCIDENT NOT BE SUBJECT TO A RECALL?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS SMOKE AND A STRONG ELECTRICAL BURN ODOR EMITTED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR MAIN SWITCHES AREA. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO MOVE ONTO THE ROAD SHOULDER. THE CONTACT FOUND THAT THE MASTER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAUGHT FIRE. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO CLOSE THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW. DRIVER DOOR SWITCH ARCING AND MELTING. THE SWITCH WAS REPLACED AND ONLY ONE WINDOW ISNT WORKING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V486000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 254,000. *BF *TR

CAR IN DRIVEWAY. NOT DRIVEN FOR 3 DAYS, JUST NOT NEEDED BUT WORKING. DURING DAY, CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE. FIRE INSPECTORS WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE DUE TO THE EXTENT OF DAMAGE. THEY BELIEVED IT COULD HAVE BEEN ELECTRICAL. FIRE CONCENTRATED IN DASH AND ENGINE AREA. WINDSHIELD BLEW DURING FIRE. HAVE OWNED THIS CAR SINCE NEW, FOR 17 YEARS. 140,000 MILES.

SRS LIGHT ON IN DASHBOARD LIGHTS, WHAT IS THAT FOR AND HOW DO I FIX IT?

NO AIR BAG

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V384000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE DEALER (WEBER FORD, 3465 PROGRESS PKWY, GRANITE CITY, IL 62040, 618-452-5400) CONFIRMED THAT PARTS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

IGNITION CYLINDER. IF KEY IS REMOVED IT WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO TURN THE KEY TO START THE CAR WHEN RE-INSERTED. THIS PROBLEM HAS LEFT MY FAMILY STRANDED. THANKFULLY AFTER AN HOUR OF PLAYING WITH THE KEY I WAS ABLE TO GET IT STARTED.. CANNOT REMOVE KEY UNTIL I HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX IT, HENCE NOT BEING ABLE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHICH IS A HUGE SECURITY ISSUE.

IGNITION LOCKED

THE DRIVERS SEAT IS LOOSE. IT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHEN DRIVING AND WHEN STILL. IT IS NOT SOLIDLY INSTALLED AND CAN BE SHAKEN TO THE POINT WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE THE SEAT CAN ACTUALLY DETACH FROM ITS MOUNTING. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THESE SAME SYMPTOMS IN THEIR 2002 HONDA CR-VS.

THE PASSENGER SIDE POWER WINDOW SWITCH SMOKED AND STOPPED WORKING. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THE REPAIR WOULD BE COVERED. THE PASSENGER WINDOW SIDE IS THE ONLY ONE AFFECTED.

MY 2002 HONDA CRV'S FRONT DRIVERS SEAT HAS BEEN ROCKING OR MOVING SLIGHTLY AS I DRIVE AROUND. I WENT TO GET MY CRV INSPECTED IN VIRGINIA AS IS REQUIRED EVERY YEAR, BUT WAS REJECTED. HE SAID THE SEAT HAS TO BE FIXED, IT ROCKS. IT SEEMS TO ME IF IT FAILED TO PASS THE VIRGINIA STATE INSPECTION, THEN IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I WENT ON THE HONDA OWNERS CLUB FORUM AND SAW THAT OTHER OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED THE HONDA RECALL CENTER, BUT THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALLS NOR CAMPAIGNS REGARDING LOOSE/ROCKING DRIVER SEATS. IT MUST BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF IT FAILED THE STATE INSPECTION. I'D LIKE FOR HONDA TO FIX MY SEAT SO IT DOES NOT ROCK WITH OUT CHARGE. I HAVE OWNED HONDAS FOR ABOUT 25 YEARS, NOW.

DRIVER'S WINDOW WORKS, BUT PASSENGER AND BACK SEAT WINDOWS WONT WORK. I'M SEEING MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH HONDAS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM! ALSO, THE WINDSHIELD WASHER WON'T WORK.

EVER SINCE I HAVE HAD MY CAR THE HEADLIGHTS BURN OUT WITHIN 3-4 MONTHS. CHANGE ONE, THE OTHER GOES OUT. AVERAGING 2000.00 OVER THE LIFETIME OF OWNING MY CAR. THE FRONT DRIVERS SEAT'S BOLT BROKE...THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID IT WAS BC OF WEIGHT...I WEIGH 135# I HAD TO PAY TO HAVE MY SEAT FIXED. NOT MY FAULT!! MY SEAT BELT WILL NOT BUCKLE UNTIL THE 4-5 TRY..IT KEEPS ON BOUNCING OUT OF THE CLICKER.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY HONDA-CRV WAS HIT BEHIND BY A YOUNG LADY IN NOVEMBER 2016. SHE ADMITTED HER FAULT AND HER INSURANCE COMPANY PAID FOR THE REPAIR TO THE GARAGE.THE REAR BUMPER WAS SEVERELY DENTED AND IT CREATED SOME OTHER MECHANICAL PROBLEMS AND THE GARAGE OWNER FIXED THEM.I DO NOT HAVE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT IT. EMPHATICALLY, I SHOULD SAY: # 1. WHEN THIS ACCIDENT TOOK PLACE THE AIR-BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. IT IS A BIG QUESTION ? # 2. THE GARAGE OWNER, DURING THE REPAIR DAYS ASKED ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER GARAGE WHO DID THE 'WHEEL ALIGNMENTS." ONE OF THE PERSONS THERE TOLD ME " THE EXCEL IS NOT GOOD/DEFECTIVE AND NEED TO BE FIXED OR REPLACED... SOMETHING LIKE THAT AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER." I SAID THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD TO DO THAT NOW AND I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK.I TOLD ABOUT IT TO MY GARAGE OWNER. HE INSPECTED IT AND SAID " CAN NOT SEE SUCH A THING, BUT WILL SEE LATER." SINCE THEN, I USE THE CAR WITH SUSPICIOUS AND SCARE TO DRIVE FAR AWAY PLACES. NEVER DRIVE ON FREE-WAYS. # 3. I GOT A DASH BOARD WARNING IN SEPTEMBER THIS YEAR. THE GARAGE OWNER SAID THAT ENGINE OIL NEED TO BE CHANGED AND I DID SO ON 09.26.2017. BUT STILL THE LIGHT IS ON ? I THINK IT SAYS " MAINTENANCE REQUIRED." WHY IS THE LIGHT IS ON EVEN AFTER OIL CHANGE IS DONE ? I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE EVERYDAY AS I CAN NOT AFFORD GAS MONEY. WE ARE STATE BENEFICIARIES AND THE STATE HAS CATEGORIZED US AS LOW INCOME FAMILY. MYSELF AND THREE FAMILY MEMBERS MOST OF THE TIME TRAVEL BY BUS. THEREFORE, I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY

DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT WILL NOT ALWAYS CLICK INTO LOCK. DRIVERS SIDE SEAT IS VERY LOOSE. MALFUNCTION LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF.

TAKATA RECALL REIMBURSEMENT

I RECEIVED IN THE MAIL A NOTICE FOR VEHICLES WITH TAMARA AIRBAGS FROM TK HOLDINGS INC, CONCERNING THE AIRBAGS IN THE ABOVE MENTIONED VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENDANGERMENT THIS MAY PRESENT. PLEASE ADVISE ME ON WHAT STEPS I NEED TO TAKE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM.

I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES. AS I DROVE ALONG I-575 - A 4-LANE HIGHWAY - I NOTICED A KIND OF POWER SURGE FROM MY ENGINE. MY SPEEDOMETER REGISTERED 80 MPH! I APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT WAS UNABLE TO SLOW THE CAR MORE THAN 20-30 MPH, AND THEN IT STARTED TO CREEP BACK UP. I EXITED AT THAT POINT, KNOWING I NEEDED HELP. I WAS STILL GOING MUCH TOO FAST. I LOOKED FOR A SERVICE STATION AND NOT ONLY WAS THERE NONE, WITHIN SECONDS I WAS FACED WITH A RED LIGHT WITH 4 LANES OF CROSS TRAFFIC (GEORGE BUSBY PARKWAY) - I COULDN'T STOP THE CAR! SO I TOOK IT OFF THE ROAD IN A CONTROLLED CRASH, GOING OVER THE CURB, 6 OR SO FEET OF GRASS, A HUGE HEDGE, AND CRASHED INTO A VERY TALL, MATURE CRAPE MYRTLE. THANK GOD THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED. I WAS FORTUNATE THE CRAPE MYRTLE CONSISTED OF MULTIPLE TRUNKS RATHER THAN BEING AN OAK OR SIMILAR. THE CRAPE MYRTLE MANAGED TO DISSIPATE THE IMPACT OF MY CAR AND I ONLY SUSTAINED A BROKEN WRIST. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS CHARGING ME WITH DRIVING OUT OF CONTROL!!!!

I WAS INVOLVED IN AN INCIDENT WHERE A VEHICLE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HIT THEM. THE DAMAGE TO DRIVER SIDE FRONT END DAMAGE IS SUCH THAT I AM UNABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR OR DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY WITHOUT REPAIR. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE AIRBAG SYSTEM FAILED TO DEPLOY. I DID TAKE MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE SAFETY RECALL AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS WHEN NOTIFIED.

DRIVER SEAT BUSHING, SEAT ROCKS SINCE NEW, WITH IN FIRST MONTH OF OWNING DEALER NOTIFIED, THEY SAID THE ROCKING WAS NORMAL. FOUND NHTSA CMOAIN #02V251000, I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED.

WE RESPONDED TO A SAFETY RECALL ON OUR 2002 HONDA CRV IN 2013 TO REPLACE THE COMBINATION LIGHT SWITCH WHICH MIGHT CAUSE A FIRE OR THE LIGHTS TO GO OUT UNEXPECTEDLY. REPAIRS WERE COMPLETED 30 OCT 2013. IN MARCH 2017 THE ISSUES IDENTIFIED IN THE RECALL WERE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. THE SWITCH STARTED SMOKING AND THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. I NOTIFIED THE CLOSEST DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIRS FOR THE ITEMS TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT YES THIS IS THE ITEM COVERED BY THE RECALL BUT WOULD NOT BE COVERED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY. THIS MADE NO SENSE TO ME BUT AS I HAD TO DRIVE 80 MILES TO RETURN HOME I WENT AHEAD AND PAID. I CONTACTED HONDA AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM. THEY RESPONDED THAT THE PARTS THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED WERE NOW OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE COSTS. IT SEEMS THAT EVEN IF REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE USED AND THE SAFETY ISSUE STILL HAPPENS AS IDENTIFIED IN THE SAFETY RECALL, THEY SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR COSTS. THEY FELT OTHERWISE.

WHILE PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE DRIVING UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT (25 MPH IN A 45 MPH ZONE). I ACCELERATED TO PASS, MY CAR BEGAN TO SPEED FASTER AND FASTER WITHOUT ME BEING ABLE TO CONTROL OR STOP THE VEHICLE. BOTH FEET WERE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT WE REACHED 70MPH, BUT I COULDN'T STOP THE CAR. I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND YET THE CAR CONTINUED. WE RODE ON BOTH THE BRAKE PEDAL AND EMERGENCY BRAKE FOR AT LEAST A MILE. IT ONLY SLOWED DOWN A LITTLE, BUT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE ON THE SHOULDER AND LUCKILY DIDN'T COME TO ANY STOP SIGNS OR TRAFFIC LIGHTS. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP MY VEHICLE N FRONT OF A RESTAURANT BY TURNING THE IGNITION OFF, WHILE STILL MOVING. WITH THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED, I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND IMMEDIATELY CHECKED TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS NOTHING OBSTRUCTING THE PEDAL CAUSING IT TO ACCELERATE. THERE WAS NOTHING. NOTHING APPEARED OBVIOUSLY WRONG UNDER THE HOOD, EXCEPT A STRONG BURNING SMELL FROM THE BRAKES. I TURNED THE IGNITION ON WHILE IN PARK AND THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO 140 MPH, THE RPMS RED LINED (WITHOUT PUSHING THE BREAK OR GAS PEDAL). I TURNED THE CAR OFF IMMEDIATELY. WE THEN PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND ROLLED IT INTO THE RESTAURANTS PARKING LOT. I CALLED AAA TO HAVE A TOW TRUCK BRING THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE BEFORE ANY PERSON WAS INJURED, KILLED OR DAMAGED PROPERTY. THE MECHANIC CONTACTED ME AND RECOMMENDED THAT HE NOT TOUCH IT AND TO HAVE HONDA PICK IT UP AND TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THEIR MECH

MY CAR WAS TOTALED BUT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. WITH SUCH A HUGE DAMAGE WHICH HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEED WITH TWO FLIPS AND HIT A TREE BEFORE IT CAME TO AN UPSIDE DOWN STATIONARY POSITION, THE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED AS A SAFETY FEATURE BUT NONE OF THEM DID. THE PHOTOS OF THE WRECKED CAR WERE ATTACHED.
