I hit a bumb and my engine started smoking and then airbag triggered on both driver and passenger side

Driving on the highway, smooth road, hit nothing and the entire driver side airbags deployed.

I purchased a used Honda Civic last summer. This year I started receiving recall notices. I did not respond until the notice told me that they could provide a loaner because I don't have a ride to drop off and pick up the vehicle. I have made at least 4 attempts over the last couple of months to remedy the airbag situation, but the Honda representatives were not willing to set up a loaner vehicle. Then when they finally seemed like it would happen, I was told that I don't have the right insurance and they won't do it for that reason. I know the company needs to fix millions of these air bags and are trying to save money but, I need them to fix mine too. Now they say they can't accommodate my situation. I am asking Honda to please fix my airbag. The attached flyer states that it is dangerous and deadly and that they would do it. Thank you

2010 HONDA CIVIC LX. CONSUMER STATED THAT FRONT AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING COLLISION. THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE THE VEHICLE WAS STRUCK ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. THE VEHICLE SPUN THROUGH A GRASS MEDIAN, ACROSS 3 LANES AND CRASHED INTO A GUARDRAIL HEAD ON. THE PASSENGER'S AIR BAG DEPLOYED, BUT DID NOT INFLATE. A POWDERY SUBSTANCE SPEWED FROM THE AIRBAG. THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. TWO OF THE VEHICLE'S OCCUPANTS RECEIVED NON LIFE-THREATENING INJURIES.

Airbag deployed unexpectedly while I was driving through a construction zone - I think it was right when I drove onto a metal construction plate. This would have been very bad if a car was right behind me. I do not have the car for inspection, since due to the cost of replacing the airbag system my insurance declared it a total loss and picked it up for salvage although the car was otherwise in great working condition with no other damage. However I have many pictures of my car from all angles that were taken for insurance purposes. No one else inspected the car in person before it was picked up since my insurance wanted to do a virtual inspection. There were zero warnings of the problem before it happened.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Civic. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under an NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V042000 (Air Bags); however, the repair caused the driver’s side seat belt buckle to not be detected while latched closed. The driver’s side seat belt warning light illuminated. The local dealer advised the contact that the passenger’s side air bag would not work as intended due to the driver’s side seat belt buckle warning light. The vehicle was not repaired due to parts not being available. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 108,743.

Dealers will not replace passenger air bag at no cost.

While driving to work on December 20th, all of my curtain air bags and driver side air bags deployed without cause or warning. I brought it in to a Honda dealership to be inspected and I was told I was at fault even though it was an equipment error. There were no lights on my dash indicating the sensors on my 2010 Honda civic were not functioning properly. Thankfully I was not on any highway during the the incident or more serious trouble could have occurred. There was a ringing in my left ear for days after the incident.

PASSENGER AIRBAG REPLACED FROM RECALL AND DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG NOT REPLACED IS NOT IN RECALL. THE SHOW MARKETPLACE ON CBS DID A SEGMENT ON DEALERSHIP RIPOFFS AND CAME ACROSS THE AIR BAG(S) ISSUE ON A 2008 HONDA CIVIC. (TAKATA) IS THE COMPANY FOR SAID AIRBAGS. SAME MAKE AND MODEL AS MINE.HAS METAL SHARDS NEED TO BE REPLACED WAS NOT RECALLED. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WHILE THE RECALL IS OUT. THESE AIRBAGS CAN GO OFF AT ANYTIME WHILE DRIVING OR SITTING

TAKATA RECALL AFTER NUMEROUS MAILINGS FROM HONDA ENCOURAGING ME TO HAVE MY DEFECTIVE AIRBAG REPLACED, I FINALLY CALLED THEIR SERVICE HOTLINE IN MARCH 2019. I EMPHASIZED THE NEED TO OBTAIN A "FREE LOANER VEHICLE" AS BOLDLY ADVERTISED IN THEIR MAILING, AND HOW MY SCHEDULE WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE WITHOUT SUCH ACCOMMODATIONS. I WAS TOLD I WOULD RECEIVE A RETURN PHONECALL THE NEXT DAY FROM TURNERSVILLE HONDA TO SCHEDULE MY APPOINTMENT. TWO WEEKS WENT BY WITHOUT A RETURN CALL, SO I CONTACTED TURNERSVILLE HONDA MYSELF TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. AFTER ~15MINUTES ON THE PHONE, THE SERVICE REP INFORMED ME THAT THEY "DO NOT OFFER LOANER VEHICLES" DESPITE WHAT WAS STATED IN THE ADVERTISEMENT. I THEN CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA'S CORPORATE OFFICE TO SEE IF THEY COULD ASSIST IN FULFILLING THEIR PROMISED ACCOMMODATIONS. DESPITE AN ADDITIONAL 3 MONTHS AND A DOZEN PHONECALLS AND PROMISES FOR ASSISTANCE, I AM STILL NO CLOSER TO HAVING THIS DEFECT REPAIRED. MY CASE NUMBER IN THIS MATTER IS 09466794. AS WORKING PARENTS WITH A FULL SCHEDULE, TWO SMALL CHILDREN, AND TWO OLDER PARENTS BATTLING CANCER, WE SIMPLY CANNOT DEAL WITH THESE SORTS OF OBSTACLES IN GETTING A POTENTIALLY DEADLY SAFETY DEFECT REPAIRED. WE EXPECT REASONABLE AND TIMELY ACCOMMODATIONS TO BE MADE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE SO BOLDLY ADVERTISED IN THE RECALL NOTIFICATIONS. I HOPE YOU CAN ENCOURAGE HONDA TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THEIR LEGAL AND MORAL OBLIGATIONS TO REPAIR OUR VEHICLE.

MY CAR WAS IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR A RECALL REPAIR AND EVERY SINCE THEN THE SRS LIGHT SEEMS TO COME ON. THE SRS LIGHT FIRST CAME ON WHEN I HAD A PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SIDE GETTING OUT FROM THE CAR EXITING IT THE CAR THE CAR IS A 2010 WITH 35000 MILES IT'S A ONE OWNER CAR NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT AND REPAIRED ALWAYS AT THE DEALER ALL SERVICE HISTORY. THE ONLY PERSON THAT'S MESS WITH THIS SYSTEM IS THE DEALER WHO'S TRIED TO REPAIR AND GET THE LIGHT OFF SRS LIGHT AND STILL IS NOT FIXED WANTING ME TO PAY ALMOST $1,800

I WENT IN TO HAVE THE RECALL REPAIRED DONE FOR AIRBAGS. DAYS LATER MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON I NOTIFIED HONDA AND WAS TOLD I HAD TO PAY FOR AN INSPECTION. THE LIGHT COMES AND GOES. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE PRIOR TO THEM SUPPOSEDLY FIXING A RECALL NOW MY AIRBAG WILL NOT STAY OFF. THEY CLAIM IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE RECALL REPAIR BUT I FIND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE. THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE BEFORE THEY FOOLED WITH MY CAR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND I CAN'T ALLOW SOMETHING TO HAPPEN TO THEM DRIVING IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE
