The contact owns a 2000 Honda Accord. The contact was driving 35 mph when another vehicle drove through a stop sign and crashed into the front of the contact's vehicle. The air bags did not deploy and the seat belt tightened around the contact. There were no injuries. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnosis. The contact was advised that the seat belt buckle assembly would need to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure and the current mileage was 869,900.

The SRS light has come on my 2000 Accord. Now it is past the extended warranty of 10 years. I got suckered into paying $100 to Honda for them to diagnose. They came back and said the opds needs to be replaced and the airbag won't deploy because of the SRS light on. They wanted another $300 to replace. I decided not to replace because I am not convinced it won't fail again but now I am driving around knowing my airbags won't deploy. There is an obvious faultiness with the SRS and opds and I can't believe that Honda feel a warranty extension is sufficient. They should be recalling this serious safety problem.

For no apparent reason at all (no moisture problem; no cell phone, computer, etc. Use; no disconnecting anything at all, much less related to seat belts, passenger seat occupancy, seat removal, etc.) the SRS light came on and has remained on for many months. Google shows this to be a widespread problem, which has triggered a very wide range of responses from Honda. This has been a wonderful car given timely completion of all scheduled maintenance. But the SRS light problem, since it involves the safety restraining systems, should be guaranteed for the life of the car. But, given the various ways people with this issue have been treated, I am reluctant to take the vehicle to Honda. It may only require a reset for the light, which should cost nothing. But charges for a diagnosis are in the $70-100 range. Then, if there is actually a problem with safety, fixes have cost in a range of $600-1500. The whole situation is absurd.

SRS in 2000 Honda Accord is on. Advised it is the opds sensor, and opds unit. Recalls on similar models, but not my VIN #. air bag will not deploy if there is an accident.

The SRS light has turned on so there is something wrong with the air bags. If anyone were to get in an accident deaths will occur as the air bags may not deploy. With a bit of research I have found that this is a common problem with Honda Accord dating from 1998-2011. www.carcomplaints.com/Honda/Accord/2000/seat_belts_air_bags/srs_light_is_on.shtml this website provides many owners' accounts of the same exact problem in which Honda refuses to solve a problem that they have caused. It is a lethal design flaw and Honda should be solving this problem instead of making their customers pay ridiculous prices for it to get fixed just to have the SRS light come on moments after the so called repairs. The customers are not responsible, it is Honda. Please contact Honda and resolve this issue. For every moment delayed, the more likely it is for a fatal accident to occur due to this problem.

SRS light stays on. This indicates that the airbags may not deploy in an accident. Honda lifetime warranty for restraint system should cover this, but they don't. seat belt switches were checked and ok so sensor needs to be replaced. Repair cost estimate: Up tp $900. Why isn't NHTSA issuing a recall for this potential safety issue? look at the long list of complaints for this in the database!

The SRS light has gone off approximately once a year for approximately the last 5 years. It has always been caused by a sensor in the seat belt, which is covered by warranty. However, the dealer always tries to charge a diagnosis fee to determine if it is a warranty issue and it is a safety issue every time the light goes off. It is also a huge inconvenience. The dealer has told me that the airbags will not work when the light is on as a safety precaution. Each time it happens the seatbelt sensor needs to be replaced. This is a safety concern because the airbags are frequently not working.

My 2000 Honda Accord SRS light is on, no any accident was involved. The light keeps on even after reset several times. I wonder if the manufacturer covers the cost of replacement for vehicle safety.

Dear NHTSA: I am writing about my 2000 Honda Accord coupe which had an accident on May 22nd, 2010. I was driving in dry conditions along I-85 North in jefferson county, Georgia when the left rear tire suddenly blew out causing my car to flip and roll over. We do not know what caused the blowout. I lost consciousness briefly and my neck was severely broken. I had to have an operation and will be out of work for at least three months. My son was injured but not as severely as me, with many cuts on his face and ear. Two other occupants received many bruises and cuts on arms, legs and faces. The car was a total loss. There are two issues that seem to point to defects in the car. The first is that the roof collapsed so much that it hit my head and almost killed me. The second issue is that none of the four air bags deployed. It seems to me that with so much damage to the car as it rolled over and crushed the roof, that the air bags should have deployed. I would appreciate your investigating this car to see if federal guidelines were violated.

Failure of opds unit on my 2000 Honda Accord 4-door V-6. as an outcome of a joint action lawsuit Honda agreed to extend the opds warranty to 10 years from the delivery date of the vehicle or 156,000 miles. My opds unit has failed just 3 months after the 10 year extension. This is the 2nd sds system failure as the seat belt sensor has failed in the past. Honda now covers the seat belt failure on the many Accord models for lifetime as the failure is common. Failure of sds airbag system on Honda Accord and other Honda vehicle models is an on-going chronic problem that renders the entire airbag system inactive upon any component failure. This is a serious safety hazard to owners and due to the high cost to repair the sds system many owners cannot afford to make the sds airbag system operative again. Honda must step up to insuring that lifetime warranties on the sds systems are in place for all owners as an sds failure may result in injury or death for the vehicle owners. Way too many sds system failures have been documented by Honda dealers and owners. Who knows just how many "red lights" are actually on the dashboards of Honda Accord out there that simply don't get fixed due to the high cost of repair?

I bought a Honda Accord LX 2000 in 2004 with 46 K on it. Shortly thereafter the SRS light came on. I was at the dealership to inquire why it was on. They told me it was because my airbag might not deploy in the case of an accident. Not able to bear the expense of repair, I have driven it as is & the current mileage is almost 87,000.

- Binghamton, NY, USA

I also have a 2000 Honda Accord LX with approx. 134,000 miles and the SRS indicator light stays on. The authorized Honda dealer reported that this was not under a recall per my VIN. Even a quick search indicates that this is a very common defect with this model and year. Honda needs to issue a safety recall on this problem.

SRS airbag light is on. I have looked into this online and there seems to be many complaints pertaining to the same issue. Honda says they will not check it for less than 100 dollars. Many people seem to have this same problem with similar results! if this is a safety concern affecting multiple cars then an investigation should take place. Thank you for your time 2000 Honda Accord SE. 134,000 miles.

I have a Honda Accord 2000 ex with 132000 miles. 1. the dashboard light does not work so I cannot see the equipment reading 2. the SRS light on and stays on after the jump start the car. I check the online there are so many of the Honda Accord that have the same problem and this should be the safety issue. Honda should take care of them.

SRS light illuminated, airbags will not deploy if involved in accident. This has occurred on our 2000 Honda Accord with 67K miles on it. We understand that the warranty has been extended for this issue to 10 years or 150K miles, ours is now ten years old. We feel this is unacceptable and that Honda should cover this for the lifetime of the vehicle. This is why people buy vehicles with all the airbags...safety! Honda should cover this problem no questions asked!! for life.

In June 09, have an issue with SRS light coming on in my 2000 Honda Accord vehicle. The dealership said that this is an seat belt issue and fixed it. When I took the car to dealership in Jan-2010 for SRS symbol, dealer said that this is an opds sensor issue and since my car is out of warranty this will not be covered. My question- since this is a safety issue and Honda is aware of this, why is Honda not recalling. My car has 115,000 miles and this is purchased in Nov 1999. Can we have Honda issue a recall for this instead of warranty extension? [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
