1996 Honda Inspire problems

Filed Jun 25, 2009 · Airbags · 138,700 miles · LA

My daughter recently bought a 1996 honda accord. The SRS light was on; we brought it to a honda dealership & were told that it would cost $881.00 plus tax to repair. If not repaired, the air bag would not deploy. We could not afford the repair so will not allow my 17 year old to drive on interstate until repaired. I cannot believe that honda will not cover air bags for the life of the vehicle and am worried that I will lose my child over this.

Recall, never received a notice honda corp, they said "so sad to bad" cost me almost $600.00 out of pocket to have the defect corrected and almost had an engine fire while driving manafold oil gasket broke in the engine causing the oil to heat up, I was shown the recallnotice by my machanic and called honda corp. And basically they said they sent it, time expired, and they are not going to assist with any of the funds it cost me to get my car fixed. They should be made accountable for proving notices were sent. My car is in a-1 perfect condition and that should speak for itself. All maintainance is done on schedule. The recall goes back to 2001 january. This is just not right I have never moved same address they varified it. I would have never let it go when finding out this recall could have caused the car to go on fire. Do the math.. They gave me the stupides answer and hung up.when I asked to speak to someone higher up they hung up on me this was the main office no call center. I need help on this. Thanks

I've noticed on the freeways of los angeles the center divider is too short, causing extreme glare for the cars on the first lane. This is true especially when one side is a car and the other side is a SUV or truck. And its extremely irritating when the freeway starts to curve to the right of left putting drivers especially in the first lane at risk. At times its blinding and at high speeds it has the potential to be deadly. Especially when glare can out shine a brake light. I would suggest raising the center divider at least 2 feet everywhere, but if that isn't feasible, at the very least raise it 2 or more feet, in the crucial areas such as a curve in the freeway, a dip or a hill. Thanks for listening.
