Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL! MY HONDA FIT 2013 HAS IS ONLY AT 40K MILES AND ITS ALREADY FAILING AT KEEPING ME SAFE. THE ESC LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY FOR NO REASON AT ANY GIVEN TIME. I KNOW THAT SOME MODELS HAVE A RECALL FOR THAT EXACT PROBLEM AND I'M AFRAID THAT HONDA DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM CORRECTLY. I KNOW THAT IT PUTS MY LIFE AT RISK BECAUSE MY CAR DOESN'T HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL EVEN WHEN I'M JUST DRIVING STRAIGHT AND UNDER 30 MPH. MY CAR NO LONGER FEELS SAFE, I KNOW THAT THAT FEATURE IS THERE TO HELP ME HAVE CONTROL AT ALL TIMES, BUT IT'S NOT WORKING AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. WHENEVER THAT LIGHT COMES ON I FEEL MY CAR LOSER FOR SOME REASON, IT'S NOT AS STURDY AS USUAL. I HOPE THAT SOMEBODY CAN FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG THUS BE ABLE TO HELP ME FIND A SOLUTION AND FEEL SAFE AGAIN. THANKS!
