I came into possession of a vehicle several years ago that had an open
safety recall for an airbag.
I took it to the dealer, who said the parts were not available and probably
would not be for at least three months.
I did not wish to wait that long only to have the wait extended over and over,
so I sold the vehicle to a private party (at a discount) with full disclosure
and complete documentation of such.
I learned that most (if not all) car dealers will not touch a vehicle
with an open safety recall, as they can't legally sell it that way
and will be stuck with it until the recall is satisfied.
I can only speculate that the honda dealer must have obtained
the parts to fix it
or gotten a deal that was just too good to pass up.
