I took my car for a the federal safety agency recall 11v‑260 (driver's airbag inflator) to; hugh white honda 1360 auto mall dr columbus , oh 43228-3662 (614)922-1111 on july 16, they fixed the issue, however now I have an SRS light on the dashboard that won't go away. I was told that it is related to the seat belt issue. If that is the case, then the seatbelts should have been part of recall as well. If it does not work then what is the point of having the recall.

Srs light stays on. Seat belts were replaced and warning light reset,but came on after a couple of miles. Now there is a recall on the air bag inflators, but the seat belt control module, which activates the inflators is defective, and not covered under any update or recall program. I understand that the air bags will not deploy in a crash if the SRS light is on. This is a fairly common problem and in my opinion should be covered under a federally mandated safety recall with no charge to the consumer.

I was making a right turn to merge into the middle lane on a highway service road where every car was waiting for the green light. I turned very slowly at low speed after stopping at the stop sign, and all of a sudden the steering wheel started to turn by itself, then my car turned 180 degrees, while the accelerator speeded up at a rapid pace, seeming to be stuck. My car jumped the curb, hit a sign, and finally stopped. The bumper cover came down, and I can see the bumper was damaged (pushed back in the middle about 2 inches), but both of my 2002 honda accord's air bags did not deploy at all.
