Honda has recall my 2019 cr-v due to potential airbag release from a steering column wiring issue. They suggest not to drive the car. However the local honda dealers do not have the parts necessary to correct the problem and, in fact, do not know when they will be available. I am nervous driving my family because of their warning, but have to as it is the reliable vehicle I own. Please put maximum pressure on honda motors america.
