Mechanic states that driver buckle is causing error message concerning air bag deployment on driver side, says belt buckle should be replaced so connectivity will be re-established, to enable air bag deployment. I would think this would be a safety recall, if this is the case.

UNKNOWN - I have a 2004 Honda Accord which indicates an airbag issue. The seat belt buckles but the light stays on. Many 2004 Accords were in a recall over SRS but my VIN did not show as part of the recall. The dealer says the seat sensor is bad but they are not making the part any longer. What should I do. I guess the maker should replace with a new system.

On Wednesday, JULY 27, 2022, I was riding on the highway and the left side curtain airbag exploded. There was no other vehicles involved, no accident. My left curtain airbag is hanging out my window and I need to get it repaired ASAP and it's affecting my seatbelt in the driver's seat. I need to know if my make and model has a recall for 2004 Honda Accord. For now, I have the curtain pinned to the roof of the car. The airbag just exploded and now there is a red sign on my dashboard with the seatbelt emblem and showing the airbag on the steering wheel.

On october 25, 2020, the bolt holding the drivers seatbelt unscrewed itself during normal use, stripped the bolt threads, and failed. It appears to have been in a position to fail for many miles. If an accident had occurred, the seatbelt would not have worked. The seatbelt components are mandated under 49 cfr 571.209. I have attached photos of the seatbelt buckle bolt. I have a simple solution to prevent this from occurring in the future, however, I can't seem to find anyone who cares about the technicalities. It would be great to speak with an engineer about this. The honda dealer and customer service rep were worthless. They refused to sell me a replacement part unless I signed a liability waiver. I of course refused, because they have the liability. I guess they didn't like it when I told them they had a legal responsibility to provide the part and that I directed them to pick up the phone, call the production plant, and have the person sitting next to the bucket of bolts send me a replacement bolt...so I could install it myself. I purchased a 7/16-20 unf bolt through mcmaster carr and had to turn a new shoulder on a lathe. It's not as good as the proper shoulder bolt, but it is safe right now. Are there any avenues through the federal safety agency that would allow me to provide a solution to honda, and to get a proper replacement bolt? It's a dangerous situation that is likely to manifest during a traffic crash.

My airbag light on the dashboard has stayed on all of the time since 2008. Not sure of exact date. Airbag light goes off on occasion but most of the time the airbag light stays on. I've never got a recall notice on this issue. I've checked my VIN when there's a recall on airbags for my year 2004 honda accord ex and it never shows that my 2004 honda accord ex has a recall issue with airbags. My airbag comes on when I start up the vehicle, sitting still or driving on the roadway. I've also noticed that sometimes when I'm driving the shoulder seat belt on the driver side will lock up on me constantly. I'm afraid the shoulder belts going to lock up on me while driving and cause me to have an accident because I'm being held tight against the seat belt.

Srs light comes on and seat belt buckle needs to be removed and replaced and steering column needs to come off to figure out why light continues to come on. Seems like this is happening to many other 2004 honda accords and needs to be addressed. I'm told my air bags won't deploy until it is fixed.

Seat belt will not reset the light is on constantly the wind shield wipers control the water will never pump the water out however the pump is good. The radio works however you can not see the panel and lights, that includes the air conditional and heater lights. The pain on all of my honda's are coming off or fading with a white color and spots all over.

The SRS light of my car come on and goes off all the time. Sometimes when I am driving, suddenly will turn on for a while. I usually pull over and turn off the engineer and turn it on back and wait a few. This happens constantly, and I have read the manual, this has to do with the front air bags, and according to the manual book can be 'an alert to a potential airbags, side curtain airbags, front seat belt tensioners or the driver's seat position sensor and the front passenger's weight sensors' we have check it all the time and it just goes on all the time as it comes off all the time. I have gotten to a point that concerns me a lot.

My car got into a minor accident a neighborhood. The airbag on the passenger seat came out. Everyone including the police thought it was odd because there wasn't anyone sitting on the passenger seat. The driver's side on the other hand, the airbag did not come out. And the airbag light is off even though the passenger airbag came off. I have a question as to why that is? Also my seat belt became too tight and does not allow me room to moves.
