About a year ago when I arrived back home, my boyfriend (the driver) put the car in park, got out of my car on the passenger side, the car was still running, I closed the door, and boom! All of the passenger side air bags deployed. My kids were in the back seat immediately frightened. They did not inflate, they only dropped. I contacted american honda, opened a claim, brought my car to a local dealer, and of course I was told that it was my fault. They are blaming the deployment on an accident that a previous owner had got into many years ago. After leaving the dealership, I tried contacting american honda again to get further explanation and another inspection I never received a call back.
I was driving down the road, a city street traveling 30 MPH, and my driver side window airbag deployed. They have recently announced recalls on 2008-2009 honda 4-door accords for the sensitivity of the side impact sensors being too high. This isn't an issue that's exclusive to their 4-door sedans, and also relates to their 2 door coupe. As a result of my airbag deployment I took my car to honda and they were unable to give me any explanation as to why my airbag deployed but wouldn't accept responsibility. I also had my insurance company inspect the vehicle and after their thorough examination they deemed it a manufacturer defect. As a result of the incident I wound up having to pay $2600 for my airbags to be replaced. Overall a very frustrating experience for someone who was a loyal honda owner who wound up accepting financial responsibility without doing anything wrong.
Takata recall. I own a 2009 honda accord 2-dr and the recall is applied to the 4-dr only. However, I wouldn't be able to describe my car's issue better than the recall. I was driving on the highway (I-35) with approx. 65 MPH, going straight not turning in any way. I heard a very loud pop noise and my passenger's seat and curtain airbags had deployed. Honestly, it's very hard to tell if I ran over a pothole or if I hit a rock because the loud noise and my shock dominated the moment. Thankfully, I was commuting alone that day and nobody got hurt. I stopped the car to inspect it and I couldn't see anything. I filled a claim with honda customer service and took the car to the nearest honda center for a diagnosis ($120). Honda customer service requested that one of their field engineers inspected the car. After his inspection, he determined that an impact caused the airbags to deploy. When I requested to see the impact signs, they pointed a scratch on the frame rail. They said that the scratch seems minor only because it happened on the toughest part of the car, the frame rail. That scratch is almost underneath the passenger's side sensor. I asked for more information, such as the threshold when an airbag deploys, how do they know that this scratch was not there before, etc. They didn't answer my questions, instead they told me that the scratch was "fresh". I'm attaching the pictures of the scratch on the frame rail. It's not very obvious but look at the silver scrape. I decided to take my car to my insurance (progressive). They were baffled with what they saw and they couldn't believe that such scratch would cause the airbags to deploy. The estimator helping me wasn't sure if they'll cover it. He'll elevate the issue and call me on monday. Honda doesn't recognize this as a defect since they found a scratch. Progressive may not fix it. No car out of nowhere!
Was in a car accident and hit another car, my air bags did not deploy. Police, ems, and fire department, and insurance company all advised me that they should have deployed on impact. Instead my chest hit the steering wheel causing loss of breath and bruising. I was traveling on a city street. ..updated 11/13/15 *bf
Tl* the contact owns a 2009 honda accord. The contact stated that after closing the front passenger side door, the passenger side curtain air bag suddenly deployed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 89,000.
On 9/7/2015, I shut my passenger door to my 2009 honda accord and the side air bag deployed. I have been battling honda north america and have had two independent insurance adjusters verify that the air bag was not deployed due to any type of collision. The car was stationary and parked when this occurred.
2009 honda accord. Consumer writes in regards to airbag indicator light illuminated. *smd the consumer stated the dealer did not offer a satisfying explanation. *jb the consumer was informed the problem she experienced with the air bag, was not covered under the recall. Update 01/10/17.
Side airbag light, driver's airbag light and passenger airbag light is on. I bought the car new and it's never been in an accident.
Chain reaction where I was the last vehicle in a stopped line of cars I was rear ended by an USB who was traveling fast and never attempted to brake the SUV struck the rear of my accord and pushed me into the car in front my car had crushed rear end and crumpled front end while the side air beg went off the front air bag did not deploy....this is my concern since it struck the front of the next vehicle causing damage.
Slid into a curb. Locked up the seat belt, did not deploy airbags. I thought it was lifetime warranty on seat belts. Honda charged me $469 to replace driver side seat belt. Srs system would not reset. Now it points to front sensors. Honda wants $859 to replace front sensors and SRS control unit.
Since the vehicle purchased there is air bag lights on went to workshop at honda dealer three times. But still the problem exits.
I noticed that the passenger side airbag sensor came on intermittently when someone was in the front passenger seat. I took it in to be checked at honda of the avenues in jacksonville, fl. But they informed me that this was a normal action designed to shut off the airbag when persons lean in the path of the side airbag. I let them know that I wanted to have this checked, which they told me it was. Fast forward to oct 2014 I heard of the airbag passenger problem and checked my VIN. I was not included in the recall but because of my original concern I called front range honda in colorado springs (we moved) and they ran a check of my system on 10/30/2014. Fortunately they found and replaced the faulty passenger seat rail sensors when they showed as major failure! Thank goodness I never had an accident to test the passenger sensor's! Please let me know if others have complained of the same failure and hopefully this will lead to a recall to prevent someone from finding out the hard way.
While making lane change, side curtain airbag, seat, and seatbelt retractor, deployed with out any contact to vehicle. 2009 honda accord located in orlando. Airbags, controller module, headliner, and seat have not been replaced yet. Seatbelt retractor was replaced with original honda part.
Airbags failed to deploy when vehicle hit in front on driver's side. Vehicle was damaged to the extent the insurance company declared it a total loss.
Dashboard illustrates and indicates "side airbag" is turned off, randomly. This happens frequently(once a week), while nothing is blocking or conflicting with it's normal operation. In the event of a side collision, I'm deeply concerned this could be an electrical issue or faulty sensors for which will not allow the air bag to work properly.. Or worse... Not at all.
I took my 2009 honda accord to the dealership to complain that the warning light would come on indicating the passenger side airbags were off. The dealership told me that an object or passenger in the seat would affect this indicator. I advised them that nothing would be in the seat when the light would intermittenly light up. After much effort the dealership replaced the seat back senor in january 2014. The problem subsided temporarily. Today the dashboard indicator constantly turns on and off while I am driving regardless whether anyone or anything is in the passenger seat. If the indicator is correctly monitoring my passenger airbags, then I am driving my car 70 % of the time without the benefit of passenger side airbags never knowing if they will deploy properly, which is outrageous. I contacted american honda and despite living in a recall "humidity zone" (miami, florida) my honda was not included in their limited recall of defective passenger airbag inflators. I think this is absurd and the federal safety agency needs to force american honda to include newer honda's on their recall list for defective airbags.
No incident at this time. But airbag light stays lit and on dashboard the seatbelt lights up and the off lights, keeps blinking on dashboard and above hazard button. Are there any other complaints?

I am currently having water leakage from the headliner right where the side curtain airbags are located. This is occurring on both the driver and passenger side of the vehicle. I am concerned not only for the damage this is causing to my vehicle but because if I were to be in an accident I am afraid that airbags will malfunction and not deploy.
