- High Point, NC, USA
I have 2005 Honda Accord which is not included in the takata recall but I have a airbag light that goes off and on. As a result, my passenger side seat belt locked up when I took it to the dealer they said that the engine read a code that said it was involved in rear collision and it was not. They also stated that the seat belt could have locked up because the airbag light is on. Someone was sitting in the seat and had to maneuver to get out of it. The dealership has told me it will cost $800 and up to repair the seat belt (and it was not covered under the lifetime warranty for seat belts)but when I took the car to Honda the airbag light was not on at that moment so they told me it was nothing they can do unless it was on. I believe that this is a problem because the dealership also told me that if I have a faulty airbag that my seat belt may continue to lock up. I am hesitant to fix the seat belt because of the airbag situation.

"takata recall" my Honda was totaled in February, it was a head on collision and not one of the airbags deployed. This car is supposed to be equipped with airbags in front and side airbags. Not one deployed. I had 3 recalls on airbags and returned to the dealership each time to have them fixed but that did not help. The vehicle was in motion when hit on a highway. It was turning and a truck hit me head on. I have attached images.
