Airbag warning light by model year
What owners say
My airbag light sporadically comes on when the car is stationary and in motion. I had my local dealer examine the issue and they said it was due to a faulty sensor in my driver seat belt buckle. The light doesn't come on every time that I drive the car. Some times days go by with normal driving that the light doesn't come on and then there are multiple days in a row when the light comes on.
The red air-bag indicator began glowing steady red on march 22, 2016. On march 28, I took the vehicle to local honda dealer to check on the problem. Their diagnostic test that indicates "internal failure of SRS unit". This part apparently tells the airbag system whether or not someone is sitting in either / both of the front. The dealer's technician said that the bag 'may or may not deploy in an accident' and it is 'not likely' that the airbag will deploy while I am driving down the road. Apparently, honda does not consider this sensor an integral part of the safety system. I can have a new unit installed for $574.95. I was also required to pay for the diagnostic, $112.30, since this is a part the manufacturer does not cover. I feel that as this sensor is a part that the consumer does not maintain and is an integral part of the safety system, as it connects directly to the airbag deployment. I believe that honda should pay for this repair to the safety system as well as reimburse me for the diagnostic test. Both the driver and the passenger airbags may be affected in the event of an accident. Therefore, I wish to file a safety complaint against honda, lejeune honda cars in jacksonville, nc for failure to maintain the vehicle's safety system.
I have had previous issues with the SRS system where the passenger side seat belt buckle had to be replaced, I recently had the drivers side airbag replaced due to recall. Now the SRS light is on again and honda refuses to repair or diagnose without me paying $80 to diagnose. I've also had issues with the drivers side headlights burning out at least 6 times a year to which honda could never find a problem.
Air bag light is on indicating that it is not working. Looked up my year and model and found a recall. Took it to dealer. Dealer said yes recall for your model but not your VIN. My car is was manufactured in 2005 but sold to me as a 2006. This is potentially life threatening.
