What owners wrote

We were traveling at about 55MPH when the car in front of us suddenly came to a complete stop. I stepped as hard on the brake as I could and we hit the rear of the car in front straight on. The complete front of my car was crushed. We were thrown against the seat belts and both suffered cracked sternums. None of the air bags deployed. I have photos of my car after the accident.

Complaint - air bags & security alarm system takata recall. My honda van has the airbag warning light intermittently on. Most days, it is not lit, but for instance, driving today, I got the light. Van has never been in an accident and is still the original factory installed equipment. Airbags don't fail unless it is faulty manufacturer such as part of takata recall. Honda van recall is limited to 2004 but I think 2005 can also be affected.also anti theft security system is out of control and any time is activated.
