Description of the problem | Takata recall 7-21 - we scheduled to drop off our vehicle at valley honda regarding driver and passenger airbag recall. Received rental. No contact with anyone from honda until 7-30 - received message in the middle of the day saying the vehicle is repaired arrived at dealer at 3pm, where they minimized the fact that only the drivers airbag was replaced, and advised "there was nothing they could do" and i had to contact honda directly, (hondas dept that handles this, is closed weekends) was forced to take unsafe vehicle or pay for the rental at the end of the day on a saturday. Contacted honda and spent an hour on the phone, was told it would be escalated and i would hear back. 8-2- called honda, no resolution, was told it was not escalated, had ticket escalated. 8-5 - still no contact from honda, called them, was told nothing has changed, but they will escalate to management 8-5 1pm - heard back from honda that someone will review it and get back to me possibly in the next 1-2 weeks. Honda is intentionally misrepresenting the repair process, pushing my family into a corner and forcing us to take our vehicle, dealers are doing nothing to stop this nor to resolve the issue. They are hoping by prolonging this process that customers will go away. Hondas own site advises that loaner or rental will be provided if the driver airbag needs to be replaced, and only separates out if the passenger only needs to be replaced. My situation was both driver and passenger until i was forced to take it. Service manager signed document acknowledging delivery of unsafe vehicle. I currently have a toyota passenger only airbag recall, that they are providing alternate transportation no questions asked because i also do not feel safe driving it. |
