1. By shutting the pass side door the side curtain air bags deployed. This is on a 2008 honda accord, the warranty stated they would not pay for it even though when I bought the warranty I was told it covered everything even if the tiniest light bulb went out, my insurance co stated they would not pay because there was no accident and it is a malfunction the only good thing is that we were not going down the road at the time and no one got hurt.

Tl*the contact owns a 2008 honda accord. While driving 55 MPH, the passenger side curtain air bag deployed without impact.

Tl*the contact owns a 2008 honda accord. While driving approximately 35 MPH on normal road conditions, the front and rear passenger air bags became exposed from the outer covering. There was no deployment. The air bag warning indicator illuminated on the instrument panel and remained lit until the engine was turned off. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection and they stated that the air bags were falling out of the headliner. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure mileage was 5,500 and current mileage was 7,256.
My daughter started the car, her husband got in & closed the right passenger door & the curtain air-bags on the right side of the vehicle deployed. The car is a leased 2008 honda accord sedan with approx 14,452 miles. I brought the car to coral springs honda, and was told that their investigative team had to look the car over. Their final statement is that the passenger "slammed" the door to hard and it caused the air-bags to deploy. It is pretty scary to think that this can happen if you should close your door to hard. They are also stating that it is my responsibility to have the car repaired. Please advise as to my legal rights.
Airbags did not deploy, a head on accident going at 40 MPH hit a car going 45 MPH. My bumper in the front was pulled off and the hood is bent but no airbags went off.
Air bags deployed when door was shut not contact!!!!
A month ago I had picked my boyfriend up from the airport and when he got out at a gas station he shut/slammed my front passenger door on my new 2008 honda accord. When this happened my side airbags on the passenger side deployed; both side window airbags and the side seat airbag. There was not enough impact for this to happen and no physical damage to the car. We were shocked by them deploying and counted our blessings no one was in that side of the car at that time. The car was in park and I was in the drivers seat. We have been fighting with honda for a month now and they refuse to fix it under my warranty. My insurance has been investigating this for a week and a half now and too strongly feel this is a warranty issue. No one has ever heard of this happening and now I am still stuck with a brand new car that has the airbags taped up for me to be able to see out my windows. I feel this is defiantly a warranty issue and I want it to be known and people be warn so hopefully this will not happen to their new accords.
Vehicle passenger seat creaks and is not stable, lights on car continue to flicker and dim in and out when A/C and headlights are on. Very dangerous. Someone will think you are brightening them or stopping suddenly and will either cause a crash or road rage incident. Today eddie milan,general manager of sloane honda called me (can verify by cell phone bill) and "told me not to come back to sloane honda anymore" great attitude after multiple purchases and sending multiple customers. Honda refuses to admit they have problems>I will complain everyday that it gives me problems. I urge all consumers who have these problems to keep complaining until honda fixes this issue. Cars have problems. But flickering headlights and taillights are a danger.
Cars lights dim and blink everytime the cooling fan kicks on and off,this includes headlights,brake lights,all interior lights,A/C fan dims,radio gets softer. This is dangerous to drive at night. People think you are flashing them and jamming on my brakes. I also have problems with upholstry,side air bags,right seat track, out of line bumper and pealing paint. Honda has to do something with my 2008 honda accord ex coupe before someone gets killed. Please someone help me.
