2001 Honda CR-V air bags problems

“The SRS light has come on in our 2001 Honda CR-V. Diagnostics at the dealership revealed that the control module is defective, and Honda does not cover its replacement. This is a safety issue, as the airbags will not deploy with the SRS light on. Honda should be responsible for this. Please issue a recall. It appears this issue has been occurring for several years.”

“The contact owned a 2001 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 25 mph, another vehicle had run a stop sign and the contact's vehicle crashed into the rear driver side door of the other vehicle. None of the air bags deployed upon impact. No medical attention was received. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a gas station. The insurance company had not inspected the vehicle to deem it totaled. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. Prior to the failure, the vehicle had a NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V027000 (Air Bags) recall repaired by the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 146,000. The VIN was unavailable.”

“NHTSA RECALL 20V-027. HONDA HAS NOT REMEDIED THE DEFECT WITHIN 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE I FIRST CONTACTED THE DEALER FOR A REPAIR APPOINTMENT. I FIRST CONTACTED HONDA ON 8-19-2020, AND THEY HAD ME TAKE THE CAR IN ON 10-24-2020 TO TAKE PICTURES. THEY INDICATED THAT THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK TO HAVE ME COME BACK IN TO DO THE REPAIR, BUT EACH TIME THAT I CALL TO CHECK, THEY SAY "WE WILL CALL YOU WHEN WE ARE READY." TODAY IS 1-20-2021.”

“I LOOKED UP MY VIN I'D TO SEE IT HAD A AIR BAG RECALL. I THEN CALL MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO SEE WHEN I COULD TAKE VEHICLE IN FOR THE RECALL. THEY STATED BRING IT ANT TIME. I ALSO RECEIVED A 'SAFETY RECALL NOTICE' FROM HONDA. ON 10/27/2020 I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HAVE THE AIR BAG REPLACED. AS IT TURN OUT ON THE PAPER WORK WHEN CONTACTED TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE IT STATED 'AIR BAG INSPECTION COMPLETE'. I LATER CALLED THE DEALER TO FIND OUT THAT IT WAS NOT REPLACED BUT ONLY INSPECTED. THIS WAS DONE BY HONDA SPREEN. IS INSPECTION ONLY CORRECT OR REPLACEMENT CORRECT. SHOULD THE RECALL HAVE REPLACED THE ACTUAL DEVICE. DOES THIS RECALL COVER BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ON THIS VEHICLE?”

“TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2001 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V027000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED YONKERS HONDA SERVICE CENTER (500 YONKERS AVE, YONKERS, NY 10704) AND WAS INFORMED THAT PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THAT THE PART WAS DISCONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT SHE WOULD RECEIVE A SECOND NOTICE WHEN THE PART WAS AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PART DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.”

“I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA FOR SAFETY RECALL ON MARCH 2020. I HAVE REPEATEDLY CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND EACH TIME THEY SAY THERE IS NO FIX. MY 20 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS DRIVING THIS CAR AND I AM CONCERNED AND WOULD LIKE TO MOVE FORWARD IF HONDA CAN NOT FIX THE SAFETY RECALL WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NEXT?”
