However, the sudden appearance of the airbag warning light concerns me about the functionality and safety of the airbag system. Here are the details of my vehicle: •Make/Model: Honda HRV 2016 •VIN: [XXX] •Title: Rebuilt I would appreciate any guidance on whether there are known issues or recalls regarding the airbag system in this model, or any recommended steps I should take to address this concern.

I was driving on a Nevada highway and getting into an off ramp with mild traffic. I attempted to break so I could stop behind another driver and realized my breaks weren't working. I then put my entire body weight on the breaks and they failed to stop or slow down my vehicle. I ended up colliding into the vehicle ahead at 50 mph. Even with an impact of 50mph not a single airbag went off. I sustained head injuries. This could have been lethal. Myself and my passenger could have died. The breaks failed resulting in a collision and the air bags did NOT go off. My vehicle was totaled on the spot and i spent over 7 hours in the hospital due to my vehicles failing to keep me safe. I did reasrch and almost every other 2016 Honda HRV has a recall for the breaks and somehow mine did not when the breaks failure could have killed me.

The passenger airbag light comes and off when no one is sitting on the seat or without anything being in the seat. Comes on for a few seconds then shuts off like someone is sitting in the seat. It does go off when someone is sitting on the seat or if I put something large on the seat. This happens when I'm driving or just sitting.
