I was driving down montgomery street in savannah Georgia going North in the right hand lane of a 4 lane road. The car in the next lane going the same direction as me was turning left. A car coming in the opposite direction tried to turn left at the same time as the car next to me, not being able to see me coming. I was hit on my drivers side door/front of the car going 40mph. I do not yet have an estimate on the damages of the car but it is most likely totaled. Both cars had to be towed. My car was a 2002 Honda Accord. The passenger airbag deployed and exploded, leaving my chest stinging. My air bag did not deploy at all.

My 'SRS" dashboard light came on for no reason on my 2002 Honda Accord LX. The light stays on. Per a Honda web forum, the problem is either the air bags will not deploy or a defective air bag sensor. There are many complaints about this. This is a safety factor. I think there should be a recall on this.

- Irving, TX, USA

I have a 2002 Honda Accord. I received a letter from Honda more than one month (04/13/2010) back saying that there is a safety recall on the drivers airbag inflater. The notice said that I have to contact my local dealer and they will fix for free. I contacted the local dealer (team Honda, baton rouge) the same day the letter was received. They said they will order the part and once they get it they will let me know and try to fix it. I have not heard anything back from them till now. It looks like Honda nor the dealership is serious about it and is not ready to fix it inspite of the recall.

2002 Honda Accord V6 coupe -- SRS system light on the dash is on. This indicates that SRS system, including safety devices (seat belts and airbags) may not be working correctly. The problem was at first intermittent. I read that there was recall in regards to the seat belts and that was causing the problem. I took the car in to the Honda dealer for servicing. He did not acknowledge the safety recall and said they would troubleshoot it and I have to pay for it. The light is solid on for past couple of years.

Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) Honda has recalled many 2002 Accord for airbag problems. I have a 2002 Accord. About six months ago, the air bag light came on and has remained on since then. Honda has told me my vehicle, [xxx] is not part of the airbag recall. I believe it should be part of the recall.

- Austin, TX, USA

My 2002 Honda Accord V6 coupe has a problem with the safety restraint system. I brought it to dealer, and I was told that it was a seat belt buckle switch failure, and it would cost $200+ to fix, even though the owners manual states that all seat belt problems have a lifetime warranty. I refused to pay to have it fixed, and they sent me away, informing me that the SRS system is shut down. This is a big safety concern for me, and I feel they should fix the problem. I have read online that there are many people with the same problem I have on their Accord. I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thank you

- Blaine, MN, USA

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Accord. The driver-side air bag did not deploy when he rear-ended another vehicle at 50 mph. He sustained minor injuries. The passenger side air bag deployed and no occupant was present. A police report was available. The vehicle was towed from the scene and repaired; except for the driver side air bag. The Honda manufacturer recommended that the air bag did not require replacement because the impact was not severe enough to merit deployment. The failure mileage was 70,000.

- Oakland, CA, USA

My 2002 Honda Accord had a failed SRS unit which Honda repaired but issued me a bill stating it was not covered under the extended warranty. Stating a fail code of 15-3 (opds sensor) that is clearly covered under the 06-009 Honda service bulletin. It cost me $85 for them to clear the code, stating that the cause was electrical interference like a cell phone or laptop. It is an important safety issue because if at anytime I should use an electrical device in my car there is a chance my air bags will not deploy. Honda should issue a recall not an extended warranty and fix the issue not cover it up.

- Mentor, OH, USA

My experience very similar to complaint #10311376. The SRS warning light came on and stayed on this 2002 american mfg. Accord with only 23,336 miles. I inquired whether the "recall" or extended warranty applied, and the service department told me it did not apply because the faulty part was a sensor in the seat belt latch, not in the module for the opds. Replacement will cost about $200. A part #04813-S84 - A33zc, buckle set, was ordered. The disconnected the sensor so the light won't glow until the sensor is fixed. They also said the air bag won't deploy if the SRS light is on.
