TAKATA RECALL. NO OPEN RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. PRIOR RECALL WORK ON AIR BAGS WAS COMPLETED IN DEC 2016. CURRENTLY WITH NO ONE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT FOR PASSENGER AIR BAG ACTIVATION IS OFF, MEANING THE AIR BAG IS ACTIVE. I'VE SEEN IT LIGHT UP AS OFF WITH A PASSENGER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

TAKATA RECALL AIRBAG WENT OFF AFTER A MINOR BUMP BY MY GARAGE DOOR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION BUT AT A SLOW SPEED. VEHICLE ONLY HAS LIABILITY COVERAGE AND UNINSURED COVERAGE, SO NO CLAIM WAS FILED.

MY VEHICLE HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ACTIVE DAMPERS AND ALL 4 STRUTS NEED REPLACING AT A COST OF ABOUT $4000. ACURA WILL NOT HELP ME STATING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED MAY 8, 2017. HOWEVER THEY INCLUDE VERBIAGE OF 7 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE REGARDLESS OF DATE, MY CAR WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED FEB 2011 WELL WITHIN THE 7 YEAR TIME FRAME.

CAUSING A NEED FOR ALL 4 STRUTS TO BE REPLACED.
