I was notified of the recall march 2016. Dealer still has not received the parts. No one knows when to expect them. Corporate hot line was no help. Honda should face some sort of financial penalty for this lack of concern.

Takata recall I received a letter from Honda in march of 2016 informing me of the recall, they said the replacement parts would be available in the summer of 2016. The letter furthered stated that I would receive another letter telling me the parts were available. That never happened. I called the dealership where I purchased the vehicle on 07/29/2016, and was informed I had to tell them I wanted the part replaced, and they would order it. I spoke with dexter, he said he would order it, and it would take about six weeks. I called back on 08/29/2016 and spoke to tim maywart, he said the parts were on back order, but they should be there soon, and they would call me. How long do we have to wait to get defective parts replaced when there's a recall?

I responded to a recall for my 2014 Honda Ridgeline on October 19, 2023. I have gone through recalls before and did not think much of it until the dealership informed me that my vehicle was "CONDEMNED". I have been calling Honda America ever since and they are not responsive. I was given a case manager as of October 23rd but this case manager cannot get me a loaner vehicle or any other information on how Honda America will make me whole. I have one car in my family and we live in a rural area with no public transportation. If Honda is going to issue a recall and find no remedy they MUST be held accountable and must be responsive to people like me who needs a car to get to work. The Honda dealership made me sign a waiver saying I assume all responsibility if anything happens which is ou

My local dealership, Wesley Chaple Honda, in Wesley Chaple Florida, cannot get the tool required to perform the recall /repair of the rusted gas tank belt support that the recall no. 22V430 refers to. I purchased the 2014 Honda Ridgeline in Butler, PA in 2014 and is considered the rust belt region which is causing the corrosion of the support. Honda claims there are not enough Ridgelines in Florida to supply the local dealership with the necessary repair parts and the special tool required to make the correction. The Honda Corp. customer support just says to take the vehicle back to the dealership for the recall, but the dealership here cannot perform the recall without the proper tool.

Safety Recall for rear subframe rust was "performed" at local dealer. Quality of work was questioned in that safety recall indicated dealer would removed corrosion on said subframe and apply anti-corrosive wax. Dealer notes they applied some anti-corrosive wax and some undercoating to a small section but did not coat ALL corrosion areas they cleaned. I had area reviewed by independent repair shop who noted the area was a concern and should be coated in the near future to prevent further corrosion and damage to frame. After discussing this with the dealer service department they informed me that was my job and my expense and told me to "have a nice day" and hung up. Is this appropriate behavior for a safety related item that could result in a fuel tank detachment or fuel leak?
