Air bag light is on and air bag is deactivated due to defective switch in seat belt buckle. Manufacturer has lifetime seat belt warranty but will not honor the warranty because they claim that the switch is part of the air bag system and not part of the seat belt. So my wife and daughter has to drive a car with no air bags because Honda/Acura will not honor their warranty. Should be a recall on this, as it is a common problem.
