problem #2

RL 6-cyl

  • 199,000 miles
Airbag warning light on because of a malfunction with the right side airbag inflator, as in many other Acura vehicles, and as shown by the recalls on it. Also the airbag is not working because of the passenger weight sensor is showing as not working, and the airbag is not working because the driver seat belt sensor in the buckle switch is not working either, all affecting the airbag deployment and thus the safety of the cars passengers. Acura refuses to fix under warranty.
