I got 2 checks for $72.04 for my 2008 & 2012 Acuras. Surprised I got anything.

I've driven Honda's exclusively for the past 22 years and each one of my vehicles they've just replaced the defective air bags. I hadn't heard that there was a settlement check.

Still waiting for Takata and GM to replace the airbag on our 2007 Silverado (purchased new). Probably won't get anything since we sold it five years ago.

I am currently waiting for parts so I can take mine in for the replacement parts.
I got letters at least five years ago notifying me I was eligible and sent them in not expecting anything.

No. I didn't even know that there was/were a settlement check.
I got a recall notice on my Subaru WRX earlier last year, and I had it done at the Subaru dealership that I used to use, until that last fiasco and the last oil change. The air bag install, they screwed up my footwell lighting and the air conditioning vents, when I returned the car for them fix, they fucked it up worse and had it for 13 days. After I got it back I fixed it.
When I had it back for the oil change, against my better judgment, they told me that I had another recall on the air bag, which I had just received the notice a couple of days before. The dealership asked me if I wanted to set up an appointment, I told them no, I'm going to take it to another dealer. Which there only 4 in the whole state of Kentucky.
Class action lawsuits are hit or miss. Usually miss. Couple bucks, maybe $30. One time my life insurance co. Was involved in a CAS. My son talked me into sending it in. About a year later I got a $1600 check in the mail. Seems the insurance co. Was selling the policy as a retirement benefit when interest was 10%.

Got my check for 2 airbags for $144 and change. I don't even own the cars anymore. 2 other guys at work got checks for cars they don't have anymore either.
Nope, my car had a airbag recall but I never got it fixed. Something came up the day it was scheduled and I ended up trading the car in two weeks later. I hope the dealership made the replacement before reselling the car.
I told Ford dealership A that I traded to Ford dealership B.
