My Opinion

Before a products or an item go to the market it should have a quality check, right? Have they made a QC for the parts?

Honda airbag recall 2013 and other carmakers sold many vehicles and for those customers it’s kind of irritating to know that there is a problem on their car.

Honda is known locally and internationally, they should make a move about series of problems regarding their cars.

Honda airbag recall 2013 it’s a shameful to the company. Million of car owners affected of this recall. They just prove that their car is not worth buying. Good thing there were no crashes or injuries of death reported.

And it’s a good thing that Japanese safety regulators called their attention before further ado. Takata should need a total management overhaul.

Takata is used internationally so there are more automakers affected. There are some non-Japanese automakers were supplied with the faulty airbags.

Takata airbags is an epic fail.

Honda airbag recall 2013s is an important issue, consumers should take their vehicles right away to dealers for inspection and could get a repair if necessary.
