- E, Setauket, NY, USA
The SRS light came on without an accident. I had the fault code read before bringing the car to Honda. The fault code was a bad sensor only. Honda replaced the sensor and the SRS control unit as well. With low mileage on the car I called Honda Motors customer service. They looked into the issue and determined the repairs were needed and they could not help in any way. Repairs cost $750.01

I received the first recall notice from Honda for airbag inflator problem in April 2015. I promptly called a dealer to set up service for the recall, but they said they had to get the parts in. I called again after two weeks and still no parts. I just received another recall notice from Honda for the same problem, but have not received a call back from the dealer to do the service. It has now been three months. Why would Honda send out the recall and not have the parts for the dealers to replace?

I received the safety recall notice from Honda to regard airbag recall on April 2015. I was calling to make appointment for replace airbag in 2 of Honda dealer ( Honda of downtown los angeles & Honda world orange county)on early April 2015. I gave my car information. They told me part was not ready yet. So they said will call later as soon ready to airbag part. But never ever reply or call again from those Honda dealer this moment. I am really consider about safety issue. The Honda suppose ready to recall service before recall announce to driver. I am really disappoint about Honda service. So I would like to file from you. Thank you.

2005 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to information for airbag replacements.
- Bethel, CT, USA
Driving South on I 81 at approximately mm 167.3. heard a very loud noise, thought I might have had a blow out. There was a burning smell so I thought my car was on fire and I pulled off on the left hand side of the interstate. No flat, nothing burning, no damage to car. Got back in my car and realized passenger side airbags from front to back had deployed, that is what I was smelling but at the time I did not realize my airbags had deployed. I was alone but there is a child car seat in my backseat and if one of my grandchildren had been in the car seat or a passenger in the front seat they could have been badly injured. My car is currently at the Honda dealership and they have provided me a loaner vehicle at no cost to me. They did call this morning to verify that I had not ran over anything or hit anything. There is not damage to my vehicle. The Honda dealership told me they would give me a call once they figured this all out. I am now waiting to see what the outcome will be.
