About two months ago, SRS/Supplmental Restrain light came on. It has been coming on/off. Took to the dealership to check; however at that time the light was off-they did not find anything wrong. ON 9/5/24, the light came on again, took to the dealership same day. They diagnosed as code B0020-13. Stated there is an "open or increased resistance in the left side airbag inflator. Installed SRS harness tester and found code to go away with SRS harness tool installed. As first step in diagnosis, recommend to replace left side airbag inflator and recheck. "

I keep intermittently getting a Supplemental Restraint System error. I have been on forums with other vehicle owners getting the same error. The dealer says it is a bad airbag while others are saying it could be two other less expensive remedies they have encountered such as a faulty cutoff indicator that gets overheated and the solders come loose as well as a faulty seatbelt buckle assembly. This is not a constant issue, it is intermittent and feel if the airbag was faulty it would be a constant error.

On 01/27/2024 I went to Mungenast Saint Louis Honda because my SRS airbag lights keep coming on for passenger seat, I paid $89 for a diagnosis fee and found out that I was told there is a sensor malfunction that is causing this. I was told that if that light is in the airbags will not deploy during an accident. I asked them to replace this part for free, they refused stated vehicle out of warranty even though it-??s a huge safety hazard and can cause a fatality if the airbags don-??t deploy, advisor at dealer said not to drive the vehicle until this gets repaired. I feel it-??s unfair Honda will not repair this for free with it being a safety issue.

"Supplemental restraint system failure" warning is intermittently illuminated in the dashboard. It comes on when the car is in drive, moving down the road, and when the car is in park. Warning goes on and off randomly. Dealership couldn't tell me what the problem was. Just suggested I replace the (very expensive) module to see if that works. On 4 different occasions the emergency brake system has gone off and the car has slammed on it's breaks while driving 50-55mph down the road with no object/ vehicle in front of it. Thankfully no one has been behind me when this has happened because I would definitely have been rear-ended if they were.

Supplemental restraint system error appears on dash unit, at first intermittently and now at all times. I am wondering if this could be related to a recall on seatbelts which apparently does not apply to my VIN but does to other 2018 Honda Accords.

I had a recall on my seatbelt and after I did the recall now my airbag resistant light is coming on and I don-??t think they-??re going to look at it without charging me when it never came on until they done the seatbelt so I-??m not sure if I got a defective part and they need to replace it or what but I don-??t think I should have to pay for it since it was just fine till they done the recall

I have taken my Honda because of engine misfiring. They said there is coolant seeping in the pistons and we red a new engine gasket and the cost is $4,000. All the warning lights are turning on and alerting the driver but when I took it in and paid $380 they can-??t figure out why these are turning on. The fuel injectors and belt are another item that has been alerted to being an issue. These are problems my 20 year old car has not encountered and this is a 2018. The airbags warning has been an issue at least once every few months.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the ABS and airbag warning lights and several other unknown warning lights were illuminated intermittently. The contact that the warning lights had since remained illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle abruptly stopped without the driver-??s input. The contact was able to continue driving immediately after each failure. The contact had taken the vehicle to the dealer who diagnosed that the fuel injectors and parking brake switch had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 80,690.

I got a B1 maintenance not that long ago and they said everything was fine but fast forward like 3 months later, my breaks start clunking and it sounds like it-??s metal to metal and I don-??t even drive fast like a crazy person or anything and I get a warning that pops up sometimes talking about a supplemental air bags error and that the passenger air bags turned off. My 2018 Honda Accord 2.0t Sport with 41k miles is just acting super super strange. It sucks because I just bought this car like a year ago. Please help me.
