SRS passenger light on constant. Took vehicle to (2) Honda dealerships - ourisman Honda bethesda, md and fairfax Honda fairfax, va. Several diagnostic tests were done and was told both times that nothing wrong can be found. Was told that "constant" light means system failure in the event of an accident. Honda says to "turn on heater for 4-6 hours to dry seat due to excess moisture". SRS light stays on even when no one is in passenger seat. SRS light goes off intermittently when person is in passenger seat. Teracon1@yahoo.com.

Traveling at 20 to 25mph. Guy in front of me slammed brakes on. I hit my brakes. Brakes locked up and lost complete control of vehicle. Slid about 10 feet into a 1997 GMC full size truck. My vehicle went up underneath truck bumper. Neither of my airbags deployed. Damage was $5148.33. Reported to Honda and was told that I was not traveling fast enough for airbags to go off. Had me and passenger not had seat belts on we would have probably gone through windshield.

The SRS failure light is constantly activated or on. Our dealer cannot repair it. American Honda tech support cannot tell the dealer how to repair it. American Honda has taken car, saying that it is unsafe to drive and with other such defects it must redesign & remanufacture a new part to be installed from now on and retrofitted to my car. After 5 times at the dealer starting right after delivery, american Honda now estimates 1 - 2 months for a possible repair. The dealer has been very helpful, but it is out of their hands. There have been no guarantees, and american Honda refuses to put anything in writing. Anyone with a similar problem E-mail sandywasson@hotmail.com.

Discussion with service dept. At college park Honda indicated this part was a common failure. Honda does not have replacement parts available. Estimated time of delivery 4 weeks or more. Honda apparently did not anticipate early failure of this part and does not have an inventory of replacement parts. Basically, anyone experiencing this problem is being exposed to a fatal accident or serious injury since airbags are inoperable until the control module is replaced. This is undoubtedly a critical safety part and a four week wait for a replacement is unacceptable. NHTSA should contact Honda and force some immediate action. At minimum, this part could be taken from autos being built and redirected toward the replacement market. Someone needs to hold Honda's feet to the fire and force immediate correction.

Customer has taken vehicle to dealer on 2 occasions for problems with SRS unit(SRS light stays steadily lit while car is on). Customer was informed that the problem resulted from reclining passenger seat while driving. The unit was re-programmed and the light came on again. Customer was then told that it was because she stows her wheelchair in the passengers seat. If the chair is unrestrained, the car thinks that a person is sitting in the seat and the computer will automatically shut off the system. Consumer began restraining the w/C, and light came on a third time.
