I took our honda into the honda dealer for an airbag recall. They changed the airbag on oct 20 2016. After a few days the airbag light came on. They did a scan and now they say the seat belt on the driver side needs to be replaced. About $700.00. I am seeing thru google searches that this seems to be an ongoing problem after the airbag is replaced. As this is a safety issue and seems to be an ongoing honda problem I am thinking they should rectify problem or install original airbag back to fix. As this was a car only driven 5 to 6 months a year and then stored for the rest now that we want to sell we need to get fixed
Takata recall during a january snowfall and freeze, I was traveling in the middle lane of the highway at approximately 50-60 miles per hour, with the speed of traffic. A car approximately 7-8 car lengths ahead of me began to break and I did too. I was breaking when my car began to fishtail and I was able to maintain control of the car for 2-3 seconds before hitting a patch of ice and spinning into the highway concrete median. My car did not hit any other vehicles before hitting the median on the driver side front and hood. I estimate that I was traveling over 40 miles an hour. The car then spun around and hit the back drivers side and then spun again to facing forward. My concern is that the airbags, which were replaced in the takata recall a few years ago did not go off. The car was considered totaled and was donated.
On monday, march 11, 2019, the "airbag warning" (red colored) light that depicts a deployed airbag in front of a driver (passenger?) in a front seat, appeared as I was driving (and not at the time I started my car's engine) on a paved road, normal road conditions, driving around 40 MPH; I was not braking or making sharp turns. My honda manual states that this symbol means that either the airbag(s) or the seatbelt mechanism is not working properly. With respect to the airbag, it states that upon a car accident, the air bag may not properly work; and therefore, I should have my airbag(s) inspected by a honda dealer as soon as possible. I also have side airbags in my car. My seatbelt seems to be working fine, so I'm not sure if/how this warning could apply to my seatbelt. I had the driver's side airbag replaced I believe in 2016 or 2017; my paperwork is in storage, however upon your request, I will locate the information. I heard and read today about the takata bag recall on about 1.2 million honda cars from around 2002 to 2016. I entered my VIN number into your system and it does not indicate another recall on the airbag I already had replaced; I seem to remember that the replaced airbag I received around 2017 was not a takata, was another brand. Perhaps this warning light is about the passenger's airbag? Nevertheless, this airbag and seatbelt warning light does concern me. Thank you in advance for your help.

Takata recall-airbag light recently came on and stays on when ignition is in drive car moving or not. I was sent a notice through the post office that stated my car may have a problem with the airbags. Thank you.
Received a recall notice on my 2004 civic stating the driver's airbag inflator needed to be replaced. Took it to the closet dealership. After an inspection of the vehicle I was told they were unable to perform the recall due to airbag belongs to a different year civic and recall is not valid. When purchasing the used vehicle I was not informed of that the airbag had been replaced. After receiving another notice that I had not completed the safety recall I took it again to the dealership, along with the written safety recall notice. Again I was told my vehicle did not have the original air bag installed. I have received a third notice about the recall from honda and do not understand why the dealership did not report this information on my vehicle. How do I know that the airbag in my vehicle is safe?

My 04 civic wiring almost set my car completely on fire. The whole electrical harnesses where melted the car without warning started blowing smoke out of the air vents, I pulled over and the car was thick with smoke. The wires under the hood and inside the car all the way to the trunk were all melted. I towed the car to the dealer and they had to replace all the eletrical and sensors in the whole car. It cost over $3100. To replace everything, the car somtimes wont start and the computer has to be reset to start also the air bag light is now on., the dealer said every electrical component on the car might need to be replaced, computer etc. But it will cost about $4000+ dollars and its possible that the air bag will not deploy in an accident., 2004 honda civics are unsafe to drive., driving honda civics are dangerous and no one should buy them.

Good morning, we took our honda civic in for an airbag recall recently. Last weekend the air bag light came on and we return to the dealer. They said they couldn't check it out unless we paid an initial $150.00 service fee and that it was probably the seat belt that broke and not the air bag but that its not covered since we now have gone over the 80,000 mile limit on their liability.

Awhile back I got a recall notice for my 2004 honda civic VIN# [xxx] and I took it to honda dealership in homosassa florida but I don't think they properly fixed the recall because the airbag light is still on. When I complained about it the lady told me that's my responsibility not theirs. I wonder if they ever actually fixed the airbag recall. I have no idea the exact date. May have been 2014 or 2015. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recall. I received the recall notice from honda for takata air bags. . The first time I got the notice I called and wasn't able to get an appointment for months. Now I get a second notice asking me to fix this problem and to call 1‑844‑758‑9245. I have been calling this number for two weeks and all I get are busy signals. I try in the morning and afternoon. I have tried monday - thursday last week and nothing but busy. Hmm looks like honda doesn't want to fix these cars.
