Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
The seatbelt SRS system light was previously identified as defective by American Honda. When my notification light came on I immediately took vehicle to Honda Dealership for repair. I have been forced to do so multiple time during my vehicle ownership. Currently the SRS light has come back on yet Honda refuses to fully and completely repair the cause. I fear for my safety and others should an unfortunate accident were to occur. I reported the issue to American Honda. Incident report number 12902734.
The SRS (supplemental restraint system) warning indicator has been lit for quite some time. I received a recall notice in march 2020. It is august 2020, 5 months from the recall letter, and I am concerned that parts are not available, and there is no availability date for an open recall to remedy this.
Tl* the contact owns a 2000 honda accord. The contact stated that the SRS air bag warning light had illuminated on his vehicle. He later received a notification of the federal safety agency campaign number: 20v027000(air bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. Lodi honda (1700 s. Cherokee ln, lodi, ca 95240) was contacted and confirmed that the part was not available for the recall repair. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer had not been notified of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 140,000. Vin tool confirms parts not available.
Had driver seat belt buckle replaced 6/11/20 as SRS light came on. Unaware there had been a recall, work not done at honda dealer, paid out of pocket. Code 9-3. Exact same problem occurred again in early june 2018 where SRS light came on. Went to honda to purchase part, learned several days later there was an active recall for the driver seat belt buckle issue. Honda dealer did not advise active recall for issue at time part was purchased. Purchased part, learned of recall, honda dealer repaired at no charge to me. Eighteen months later, exact same problem and code. No open recall at this time. Clearly there is an issue with the seat belt buckle/sensor failing so the airbags will not deploy. I am not going to pay again to have this issue resolved. Received safety recall notice from honda and I am on a waiting list to get the airbag issue resolved as there is an open recall for the airbags but the seat belt problem is ongoing. Vehicle was stationary. Started car, SRS light was illuminated, had code read and learned it was the driver's seat belt buckle that has gone bad again.
Srs light came on while stationary at home parked. I went to honda dealership and was told it has a 7-3 code for 'internal failure'. They advised me to pay $1056 to replace computer. They said this only comes on when vehicle has been in an accident and airbags deployed. My car has never been in accident. I feel this is a manufacturing defect as well as a safety issue and should be covered. They told me my airbags may or may not deploy. Two years ago my SRS light had cam on and they said it was for seat belts and they covered it. Why would this not be covered as well. This is a very common problem for other people when I searched on google people have this same problem.
The SRS sign is on since I bought it from another person, there was a honda accord rep few days back, and he said that the airbags are fine and are in working condition but still, since its related to safety, I dont know....if its really fine and are in a working condition..

Air bags: frontal: driver side: inflator module
- What is wrong
- Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
- Risk
- In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
- Remedy
- Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1‑888‑234‑2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1‑800‑255‑6727.
