The Acura dealership inspected my airbag inflator and denied replacement since the airbag number ended with "00" rather than "96", "97", "98", "99". there is no explanation as to why "00" is safe. No one knows at the dealership or corporate office. Am I and others driving with a safe airbag or is it still defective? delayed response from Acura and Honda. No option provided to purchase a new inflator to guarantee safety. Now they are saying tekata seatbelts may also have an issue, and the dealership refused to inspect seatbelt upon request.
