Let me make something clear... this is NOT the indicator in the middle of the dash board that lights when weight is detected under 65 lbs in the passenger seat, which appropriately deactivates the passenger airbag. This is an indicator light in the instrument cluster showing 'Side Airbag Off', that has turned on 3 times in the past three months, only for maybe 5-10 seconds each time. Both times I had it in for service, they run diagnostics on it, and there are no codes logged to indicate an error condition, and of course, being that it is so sporadic, they cannot reproduce the condition.
This is EXTREMELY concerning to me because I have a child that I want to be protected by any and all necessary airbags if in the unfortunate event that I/we are in an accident. So which one of the 'Side' airbag is not working when that indicator lights? One? All? The number of airbags this car has, was a deal-making selling point at the time of purchase. I have really lost faith in Honda with this and a LOT of other service issues I have posted.
