Yep. Got a call from the dealer a couple weeks ago and got the passenger side shrapnel cannon replaced on the 5th.

2014 TSX Sportwagon; NSTSA reports passenger airbag recall, but not the driver and I haven't heard anything from the dealer.

Had mine done at the dealer today. No notification letter though. I asked the service rep about the driver side airbag and checking his computer, he said there's no recall for that. I don't know if that means there's no shrapnel cannon on the driver airbag or if a recall will be scheduled in the future.

no VIP

our dealer gives mdx/tlx loaners to everybody ....

best St is early morning Saturday $40 oil change drop off, take their mdx for weekend trip to ski and return on Monday and pick up your car

Don't know, but I doubt it. I had mine done the day before yesterday. The dealer said that they would do the recall AND an oil change in about an hour. It was 9pm and I didn't really want to stick around so I asked for a loaner.

I got a loaded TLX A-Spec and while the tech was nice, I was happy when I got my wagon back though - it drives far smaller and has a noticeably smaller turning radius.

The dealer called at 2pm yesterday and said it was done. they said the recall ended up taking about two hours. The glove box looks to have been rearranged and there are greasy fingerprints on the passenger side dash.

I am a very picky person, as you will see I had Warranty pay out almost $4,700 worth of work on my wagon on previous threads. My dealer knows and I am sure hates how OCD I am

absolutely no rattles or noises post fix. Mine is as good as day it was purchased. Not a single fingerprint (visible) or marks left either

Ditto... no rattles, and no visible fingerprints or any overt sign that something was done on the passenger side. I did clean out the glove box though (nothing but owner's manual), just to make life easier for the mechanic.
