Accord 6-cyl

Takata recall - I was contacted last fall by Honda motor Corp advising me that my 2000 Honda Accord was part of the takata inflator recall. I contacted my local Honda dealer to make necessary repairs and was told by them that my Honda was not included in the recall. I did nothing more at that time but am becoming more concerned as I learn of the expanded recalls being announced. It is my understanding that my 2000 Accord is virtually the same vehicle as the 2001 and 2002 model years. What is different about the 2000 Accord from the 2001 and other model years that would exclude my model year from the recall" and, why would Honda Motors notify me that my vehicle was included in the recall then later be told by the dealer that it is not" I have not been able to get an answer to either of these questions from my local Honda dealer and have been unsuccessful in contacting Honda Motors for a response. Please help. Thank you, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I am not on the recall list however I called Honda as the SRS light remains on. After speaking to 4 representatives at Honda they informed me that the previous owner responded to a recall in 2006 service bulletin recall 06-009 - code opds which is for faulty airbags and seatbelts. The previous owner had repair done according to Honda 3/31/2010 - 10 year warranty. I bought this car at 89000 odometer on 10/11/2012. Approx. 6 months ago the SRS light came on. I contacted Honda with no assistance as they said there is a 10 year warranty on this recall. Yesterday I started by getting assistance from emily, briana, nicole and alexis at Honda - case no. N012015-05-2002159 and to expect a call from Honda. Yesterday afternoon james (no id or last name) regional case manager. He informed me that he could not assist me. 1. I am not the original owner. 2. I am not a loyal Honda owner as I have not bought another Honda. 3. no repairs through Honda. 4. the car is over 10 years old. I informed him to check another recall which supercedes the previous recall and dated 3/14/2006. He informed me to have the repair done at my expense at Honda and the case is closed. I told him that this was a fault with Honda and it is not 10 years since the recall and I fear driving my only car with an enormous problem in case of an accident - seat belts and airbags and an enormous danger to me and my grandchildren. He informed me that this was not his or Honda's responsibility. Please help me. I need Honda to take responsibility.

I have had trouble with my Honda's seat belt staying locked in. I've also have the SRS light on after a battery change. I figured out how to reset it but it comes right back on. I have taken the car into Honda and they tell me my car is "not affected" by any recalls...I explained the seat belts are supposed to be covered under a lifetime warranty. They wanted $125 diagnostic fee to determine if it was the seat belt and what the code is if it isn't the seat belt I have to pay the diagnostic fee and 800.00.to get the airbags to work for something that is supposed to be covered under a lifetime warranty, .I even tried going back to a different service adviser. Reading online I see that many people have the SRS failure and some suspect the cause relates to battery and alternator voltage! appears to be a convenient failure to state whatever they want and get the owner to pay! recently, Honda has had to recall airbags. Maybe it's a blessing that people's airbags have been rendered useless since they blow up and have killed people!! I hope the NHTSA realizes how many peoples airbags haven't even been working! well surprise, my car isn't covered under the latest airbag replacement. I am most dissatisfied with Honda they are not standing behind their products and don't seem to care if they lose customers (by death or otherwise). I tried calling there 800 number several times to no avail they were rude and condescending. This was my 3rd Honda and my last. The recall even states there is not to be a charge to check this however, they will not without me paying there fee! don't care the NHTSA and Honda's own recall notice is irrelevant to them. In light of the latest issues with airbags I think I will write an editorial for the local news or maybe call the local television station to highlight this issue ongoing blatant disregard for their customers.
