What owners wrote

'takata recall' I had my airbags replaced for recall. I recently had a collision and air bags did not deploy. Injuries consisted of chest, ribs and arm. My frustrations with honda have been a constant since I've had vehicle. Other issues like blow hearter wires smoking and catching fire burning my ex wifes leg. Too many details to write.
