I was involved in a car accident. I was driving a honda accord 2005 and was rear ended by a bmw x5. There seemed to be minor damage to my rear bumper with no collision from the front. The next day, I started my car turn on the AC and let the car cool down. I stepped out of the car and in a few minutes the driver airbag deployed. I took the car to honda motor so they could find out what is wrong witht the car, but honda wants 115 dollars to make a dianostic which I think is ridiculous. Please advice, I'm driving a car without airbags that honda refuses to even look at unless I pay 115 dollars.

Takata recall I call [xxx] about my car 2005 honda accord and ask if my car is included in the air bag recall and was told no,, but I see that the year and dates on the abc 13 houston link, show my can is included. How do I go about getting it replace? Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Was in an accident where I needed to quickly steer out of a severe crash snd was not able to becausethe steering got stuck. Noticed problems off and on but took it to the dealership and the assured us there was no problen with car. We were not notified until after the accident that there was a recall on the this certain vehicle steering and air bags . At the time of the accident went crash occured the airbags also failed to work the came out flat.
After taking my 05 accord in for the driver and passenger airbag recall and having them replaced, the employee at the honda service center told me that my SRS light is on and it is probably because of the sensor for the harness. This light has been coming on and off for well over a year, and recently has just stayed on at all times. He told me it would cost $130 just to diagnose this problem, and then the cost of fixing it, if this is indeed what is causing the light to stay on. My VIN is not part of the honda recall for this specific issue, I believe honda somehow did not take into account all of the vins that are effected by this recall. I talked to honda and they are unwilling to help at all. I am currently pregnant and a petite woman, the highest risk factor for this issue if the airbags fail to deploy. Very disappointed in honda. Will be contacting my attorney after diagnosis is made, assuming diagnosis is specifically the same as the recall.
Takata recall- I cannot get any answers from honda at 1‑888‑234‑2138 regarding why my honda takata has not been recalled. They put me on hold and never pick up again. It's a total run around. I do not feel safe driving this car anymore or letting anyone drive it knowing metal projectiles may blind me or pierce my neck.why is there not a total recall of takata airbags in honda's?

When I start the engine the air bag light on the dash board comes on and stays on and does not go out. Please help !! Thank you.
The SRS light came on without an accident. I had the fault code read before bringing the car to honda. The fault code was a bad sensor only. Honda replaced the sensor and the SRS control unit as well. With low mileage on the car I called honda motors customer service. They looked into the issue and determined the repairs were needed and they could not help in any way. Repairs cost $750.01

I received the first recall notice from honda for airbag inflator problem in april 2015. I promptly called a dealer to set up service for the recall, but they said they had to get the parts in. I called again after two weeks and still no parts. I just received another recall notice from honda for the same problem, but have not received a call back from the dealer to do the service. It has now been three months. Why would honda send out the recall and not have the parts for the dealers to replace?
