I was going about 75 on the highway and out of no were the SRS light comes on I get home and call my mechanic and he says to take the module out and bring it to him and it turns out its non repairable I sent it to one more person for repair and it came back non-repairable so I consider this a big safety issue because if I got in a accident my airbags would not work and I never had a accident or fire of flood in the car before the car is still in new shape sense 2000.

We can take the key out of the ignition when the car is in gear causing the car to roll. This is one of the things that is being recalled. Also our SRS light is lite on the dash. Our auto manual indicates this is a airbag problem and needs attention by a dealer. We called acura (11/03/2014) at 1‑800‑382‑2238 and talk to danelle. We were told our VIN number does have a recall for these items. Do we have to have to pay for this because our VIN number isn't on the list? If other acura's with our year and model is having a problem why isn't ours on the recall list?

Srs light comes on when passenger raises up from seat back. Dealer does not repair but just turns light off, which will come back on shortly. Didn't seem to be much of a problem until service advisor said air bags do not work properly when light is on. If that is the case, it seems it should be fixed instead of covered up.
