TAKATA RECALL - WE RECEIVED THE INITIAL RECALL LETTER FROM HONDA AND IMMEDIATELY TOOK OUR VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE. WE WERE TOLD THAT PARTS WOULD BE ORDERED AND IT COULD TAKE 3 MONTHS. 6 MONTHS HAVE PASSED AND THE AIRBAG HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. WITH 2 SMALL CHILDREN WHO RIDE IN THE VEHICLE EACH DAY, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. WE ASK FOR YOUR HELP IN GETTING OUR AIRBAG(S) REPLACED.
