Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord.

The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 41,000.
Srs light comes on and off took my car to honda and was told not to worry about it. I had air bags replaced last year. I hope nothing hazard happens to me or others while driving this vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord. While the vehicle was stationary, the air bag indicator illuminated, which was a safety concern. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent and occurred upon starting the vehicle. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. Airport marina honda (5850 west centinela ave, los angeles, california 90045, (310) 651-8629) was made aware of the failure and provided a print out of the following diagnostic trouble codes (dtc): 92-20 - open or short to ground in passenger air bag cutout indicator and 83-25 - internal failure of front passenger air bag weight sensor.

I have a broken airbag sensor wire under my front passenger seat. The wire broke on it's own from simply moving the seat for my daughter to get in the back seat. Honda wants over $400 to replace this and claims the wire looks to have been cut. However I am the only owner of this vehicle & never cut this wire. I took the car tp another auto shop who gave me their opinion the wire simply broke thru normal use. I believe honda needs to repair this at no cost as it's a safety concern & now the airbag light stays lit up at all times & I don't know if the airbags will work in an accident. I contacted honda again today about this & even with the opinion of an auto shop they are saying they can't help since the vehicle isn't under warranty.
The SRS light has been on in my car for 4 months. I have received a recall notice but the dealer states it is not related to the SRS light being on. However, I've been told my airbags won't deploy if I am in an accident.
My SRS light came on and when I took it to honda of fishers in indiana I was told it would be a $100 just to run the diagnostics and since my specific model of car isn't under a current recall I would have to pay for any repairs needed out of pocket. This doesn't seem fair as my car should have a lifetime warranty on seat belts and related SRS components. I would think they would at least provide a free diagnostics to make sure my airbags will work correctly as part of a safety matter. I found many 2010 accords were recalled but apparently my accord coupe wasn't.
The SRS sensor indicator light came on around sunday 10/30/2016. Took the car into middletown honda (middletown, ny) for a diagnostic test, they confirmed it was the sensor and that it isn't covered by my warranty. I looked on the dot website and entered my VIN and saw my car doesn't fall under the recall. But there is, in fact, a recall for the SRS sensor in 341,000 other honda accords. I called the 1-800 number for honda, and they told me there is nothing they can do because my car doesn't fall under the recall because of where my car was manufactured. This doesn't seem right, considering the part has clearly failed. As far as I understand, this could possibly cause all of my airbags to fail. I would like this issue to be fixed. I understand that my car doesn't fall under the current recall, but maybe more cars need to be added to this recall. The part has gone bad and I think it should be corrected.
Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord. The contact's vehicle was involved in a rear end collision. The air bags did not deploy. There were no injuries and a police report was filed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the frame had to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the air bag warning indicator illuminated one year later. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the air bag computer needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired again, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.
2010 honda accord. Consumer writes in regards to warranty extension bulletin (SRS electronic control unit may be susceptible to corrosion, potentially resulting in SRS ecu failure) is nothing more than an attempt to avoid a recall.
Supplemental restraint system indicator was blinking on and off, now it stays on all the time. Dealer said that the SRS computer was not communication with the resistant system and the first step is to change the SRS computer. If that doesn't work, the next steps are to replace the airbag senors in the seat or any sensor in that supplemental restraint system. The initial cost to replace the SRS computer is $746.28. Dealer said this is a safety issue. Repair scheduled for 21-oct-2015. The problem started on 10-oct-2015.
