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.

Car seat heater made seat start to burn
Sometime back in september of 2015, it was noticeable that the driver's seat would jerk forward (it began as a jerk to half an inch and as time passed the jerk increased to an inch forward). Specifically this occurs during an abrupt stop (I.e. At a stop light, stop sign, traffic stop, etc.). I believe this could be due to a manufacturer's defect. It is concerning that an accident could occur due to the lack of safety from a maneuvered driving position as the seat jerks forward and could just as well be a distraction. I am also experiencing a discomfort in my neck and shoulder area due to the constant jerking forward.
Srs light comes on intermittently when I am driving. According to the federal safety agency campaign number: 07v001000; component: airbags. The driver's seat position sensor harness was improperly routed. I need to have the dealer replace and reroute the driver's seat position sensor.
I was driving to meet a friend and notice an awful smell in the car. I parked car at her home and was gone about 3 hours. As I was driving home notice that the front passenger seat bottom was melted. I have heated leather seats. There was also a small melted area on the seat back. My husband disconnected the fuses upon my arrival home. He looked it up on the web and saw reports of this happening to others, but when he called a honda dealer he was told that this was unheard of. We were very lucky that there was no one else in the car at the time. Could have been a lot worst if my grandson or someone else was in the passenger seat. Updated 10/9/15 *ln updated 12/06/2017
Air bag sensor light came on abruptly and stays on. Turned the ignition off and on multiple times but the air bag sensor light stays on.
I took my car to a local honda dealer for a recall to be repaired. After getting the car back, I still get a dashboard warning light indicating that the part may still be defective. The part in question is the passenger side power seat wire harness (seat SRS sensor). I was not aware of this recall, but the dealer was kind enough to inform me, but I just don't feel the issue has been corrected.
To whom it may concern: there is a huge safety problem with the passenger air bag sensor in my car. The passenger seat airbag indicator lights comes on intermittently when no items are in the seat, and occasionally comes when items are in the seat. The seat definitely has a short in it and I am concerned about it not working properly if I am involved in an accident. *tr ## VIN passed ##
Driver seat is moving forward and backward whenever you brake or accelerate.
The air bag warning indicator is illuminated spontaneously regardless if the vehicle was in motion or at start-up and whether the front passenger seat was occupied or unoccupied. The recall 07v001000 (air bags: frontal: sensor/control module) does not include my VIN.
