Complaint: SRS light illuminated - cause 32-1-x (x=0-9/a-f) open or increased resistance in the right side airbag inflator. Repair is not covered by honda because "right side airbag inflator (in the seat, not the dash) not covered under the warranty extension" - repair estimate quoted at "around $1,200" at this point, the only issue is the light is on. This is true anytime the ignition is in the on position regardless of vehicle disposition. I opened a case with honda USA (case number 09737616, and they denied coverage.
I was told my car needs an inflator but that it is not covered under recall. Why does this car have an airbag issue that is not covered? 802 honda, in montpelier vt has replaced the drivers seat belt buckle twice and each time the airbag light goes out but now they say it needs a right side airbag inflator in the seat which is not covered by the recall and they gave me a repair estimate (range) of $1,000 to $1,500. This is a safety issue and should therefore be covered by recall. Additionally, there was a recall on the visors which fall into the line of sight when driving as a result of splitting apart which should also be covered but there was an expiration on that recall. The safety issue is the same regardless of whether the car is six years old or 16 and regardless of the mileage so this too should be covered by the manufacturer.
I have had my passages airbag recalled twice and ever since the last time - the airbags light goes on all the time and honda 1) charges me - 2 times to even look at it since it wasn't a recall and 2) want me to pay to fix it. It a very common problem and they cause it by recalling it twice and wreaking the connection and says it's my problem - please read honda strive bulletin 10-001 put out on 12/12/10. The SRS inductor comes on and dtc 32-10 is stored - honda needs to fix this!,,

Takata recall: we have not heard back from honda regarding repair of our son's honda takata airbags. Our case # is 08936577.
This vehicle was involved in an auto accident in 10/2012 and was labeled as totaled by the insurance company. Airbags deployed when car his railing on highway.
Takata recall: I have had an airbag light on several times. I was told by the dealership it is an inflator code and I will have to pay for a $1,200 repair. On two occasions the seatbelt was replaced. Somedays my light is on, others it is not. There is a recall and there is a technical bulletin but my car is "not impacted" that is untrue. It absolutely is. The vehicle is presenting the same codes as those in these bulletins and recalls and it should be repaired at honda's expense, not mine. Furthermore, the driver side sun visor is broken but it was not repaired before the end date of the recall (I did not own it then) and now that I own it I am told it is not eligible. I contest, the issue is as much of a safety issue for myself and others on the road in 2018 as it was when it was issued. This too shoulde be replaced at honda's expenxe not my own. The airbag light goes on and off at will when moving, on city street or highway, turning or going straight. The sun visor does not go out of my line of sight as a result of the failure. This too happens anytime, any where, at any speed, and on any road.

Takata recall, propellant wafers degrade over time. See attached for details. I first received this safety recall notice in july 2016. I then contacted honda. The phone representative contacted herson's honda located in 15525 frederick rd, rockville, md 20855 and set up a phone appointment. When I spoke to herson's the poc told me that the replacement part is not available and dealership will contact me once it arrives. He also mentioned that it could take more than 90 days. As of today, I have not received any call from the dealership. I am not sure what is going on but I do not think honda is taking this safety issue seriously.
As I was driving straight down rt 102 west bound in rhode island, in the left lane of a two land road in roughly the 30 - 40 MPH range with my 7 month old toddler in the car seat in the back seat, the side air bags on the driver's side of the car deployed while the car was in motion for no apparent reason. My car was not in an accident and did not hit a pot hole or a bump in the road. It was a smooth drive up until I head a loud bang and was smacked in the side of the head while driving the car, when the side air bags deployed. My driver's side seat belt is locked up as well. I was left with a temporary red mark on my neck and a ringing in my ears. After 3 hours the hearing in my left ear has yet to return back to normal. I do not know why the driver's side airbags deployed or what component is the cause. This incident engaged my safety and the safety of my child.

The recall for the defective airbag was in may of 2016 but there is no remedy yet. What recourse do I have? I would rather have no airbag than one that might kill me.
Takata recall any update on if a solution will become available and rolled out to dealerships soon?
