"takata recall" shortly after the recall the SRS light came on dash and has stayed on. Possibly related to air bag, seat sensor or seat buckles. Honda refused warranty service, "not a covered item" suggested replacement of the SRS unit at $800 for the parts. We maintain it's all part of the same safety system and should be covered. After reading on the web it varies from dealer to dealer weather they will cover it or not. We just want whats fair. Please advise. Original owner.

I was hit from behind in an accident. My driver seat broke in the accident. The base cracked and the seat came loose. This accident was not severe enough that my seat should have broken. This is a safety concern. The seat has not been fixed yet. The accident happened Friday and Monday I'm taking the car to get estimates.

My Honda Accord, 2001 model seat bracket has broken. I have researched this on this website and found that Honda replaced models of 98-99 but no 01, is this covered under a recall or tsb. Is this Honda's responsibility?

Naughthide drivers seat side front part, had seat cover replaced twice, and repair twice, it cracks, and rips, customer service said it mite be my size, the clothes I wear or how I put the seat, I though the front of the seats was all leather but it is not, it is part leather and part naughthide, with a bad disign. It has a seam low were you sit, so you are always rubbing it.

Re -ODI action PE02-072 since new, my Honda Accord has had a loose and reclining drivers seat which falls back during acceleration. Seat has been repaired under warranty three times, completely replacing all seat parts with no improvement. American Honda attempted to cover these repeated repairs and gave me a free 100,000mile extended warranty.
