My mother was driving her vehicle alone and had an encounter with a deer strike to the front of the vehicle. The safety air bags did not deploy. The accident was immediately reported to the local dealer. Since that date (unknown to me) the SRS light has been on continuously and honda refuses to fix this potential deadly system flaw.
