Tl* the contact owned a 2011 honda fit. While driving approximately 7 MPH, the contact's vehicle was rear ended by another vehicle traveling approximately 70 MPH. None of the air bags deployed. Police report number: pa-19-285971 was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to a police impound facility. The front passenger was transported by ambulance to the hospital and sustained five broken ribs, a broken back, and lacerations to the head. The occupant remained in the hospital for eight days.
Takata recall. Honda tried to increases my exposure by sending me to car rental business which willingly places a $100 hold on my visa and then increases my exposure to cost via "loss of service". I did not accept. 4 and 7 to no avail. I requested management at honda corporate call me as I needed to speak with a person who had authority on 04/06/2016. Honda corporate has not returned my call as of today 04/09/2016.
