The passengers airbag light keeps on turning on and off
Air bag indicator light is always on. Went to the Honda dealer (Auto NAtion Honda, Tucson) and was informed that there is a recall but the part was not available. So come back after the part. Came back today, and there was a new person, and was informed it wont be covered under the warranty, and needs to replace the driver's side seat belt wire harness and had to pay $235. There is a Safety Recall: Driver's Seat Position Sensor Harness Replacement service bulletin 07-002 for this wire harness but was informed does not cover my vehicle. I think this is the same issue, but why does not cover my vehicle? This is clearly Honda's fault.

My daughter was in a car accident 5/18/21 and totaled her car , airbags opened on sides and in seat but her steering wheel never opened . I have pictures of the car and even police officer , paramedic and tow guy said it seems strange that they did not open . She is very lucky to be ok but I am concerned that the steering wheel did not open . Maintenance was kept up on car along with inspections .
BOLSA DE AIRE
HI. I GOT AN ACCIDENT ABOUT 3 WEEK AGO. MY VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED AT FRONT OF BUMPER AND THE AIRBAG DRIVER SIDE IS PULL OUT, BUT THE COST IS TOO EXPENSIVE FOR REPAIR MY CAR. I DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH AT THE MOMENT. CAN YOU HELP ME? PLEASE
Seat belt will not retract.
IT SAYS THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG, BUT THE MECHANICS ARE SAYING THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM, BUT THEY CAN NOT GET THE AIRBAG LIGHT TO GO OFF.
DEALERSHIP FAILED TO PROPERLY INSTALL AIRBAG INFLATOR AFTER I RECIEVED A RECALL NOTICE. THEN PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THE SRS CODE THAT WAS SHOWING UP ON MY CAR AFTER INSTALLATION WAS THERE BEFORE SERVICE AND EVERYTHING WAS PROPERLY INSTALLED ON THEIR END.
MY AIRBAGS ARE OFF MY DOOR LOCK IS BROKE I TRIED TO LOCK THE CAR ONE DAY THE ALARM WENT OFF AND WHEN I TRIED TO PUT THE KEY IN THE DRIVER DOOR THE SPRING POPPED OUT SO I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO LOCK MY CAR . I PUT MY CAR IN THE SHOP AND ONCE I DID A FEW DAYS LATER THE MAINTENANCE REQUIRED LIGHT CAME ON.
WE BROUGHT THIS IN TO BOTH VERN EIDE HONDA, SIOUX FALLS, SD AND BROOKDALE HONDA, BROOKLYN PARK, MN. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THE CURRENT AIRBAG. SOMEHOW THIS INVESTIGATION BY BOTH DEALERSHIPS HAS NOT BEEN RECORDED IN THE SYSTEM. OUR UNDERSTANDING FROM BROOKDALE HONDA IS THAT PHOTOS OF THE INSTALLED AIRBAG WERE SENT TO HONDA CORPORATE AND NOTHING NEEDED TO BE DONE FURTHER. WE CONTINUE TO RECEIVE NOTIFICATIONS GOING SO FAR AS TO RECEIVE THEM FROM THE DVS. PLEASE ASSIST. THE NUMBER AND FREQUENCY OF NOTIFICATION IS BECOMING ANNOYING SINCE THE CARE HAS BEEN IN TWICE TO HONDA FOR RECTIFICATION OF THE AIRBAG.

AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS ON. ITS BEEN 2 MONTHS NOW. I FEAR FOR MINE AND MY CHILD'S LIFE WHEN SEEING IT. APPARENTLY A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE MADE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY SPECIFIC RECALLS FOR IT. HOW DO I GO ABOUT THIS?
TAKATA RECALL: I PURCHASED FROM INDIVIDUAL KNOWING IT WAS A SALVAGE VEHICLE. HOWEVER, DID NOT KNOW THE AIR BAGS HAD BEEN REMOVED. WHILE IT IS COVERED BY RECENT RECALL HONDA AMERICA WILL NOT AUTHORIZE REPAIR DUE TO MISSING PARTS. UNSAFE CONDITION!
THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS COMING ON AND WE FEEL IT IS DEFECTIVE OR RELATED TO THE RECALL.
TAKATA RECALL. I TOOK MY HONDA TO LESTER RAINES HONDA IN WV FOR THE AIR BAG RECALL AND THEY SAID THEY FIXED IT. TWO DAYS AGO MY DAUGHTER HYDROPLANED ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY ART 10 NEAR HEARTS WV LET OFF THE GAS, TRIED TO BRAKE BUT LOST ALL CONTROL AND HIT A GUARD RAIL HEAD ON AND THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CAR IS TOTALED AND CURRENTLY AT ROBBIES WRECKER SERVICE TOW YARD AT BRANCHLAND WV
TAKATA RECALL. MY DAUGHTER'S 2005 HONDA HYBRID'S AIRBAG INFLATORS HAVE NEVER BEEN REPLACED. WHEN I TYPE IN THE CAR'S VIN, NO OUTSTANDING ISSUES ARE LISTED. HOWEVER, WHEN I TYPE IN "2005 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID" AT THIS SITE, ISSUES WITH THE AIRBAGS ARE LISTED. WHY THE DISCREPANCY? WHY ARE AIRBAG ISSUES LISTED WHEN I TYPE IN THE YEAR MAKE AND MODEL, BUT NO ISSUES ARE LISTED WHEN I TYPE IN THE VIN? SHOULD I BE ABLE TO SEE WHEN THE ISSUES WERE PRESUMABLY CORRECTED?
