Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The srs warning light came on at about 107000 miles. it was checked and reset at honda service. within 100-200 miles it came on again. when taken to honda service for the next oil service the light-on was checked again and could not be reset. i was told the sensor needed to be replaced at a cost of $715.00. needless to say, i am driving with the light on. i bought the veh. new and it has never been in an accident. replacement of parts for normal wear and tear is understandable, but not for parts that are never activated. this should be a honda responsibility. i am not sure if the air bags will deploy if i am in an accident and the light is a constant nusance. i have aslo had the service engine on light reset a number of time during ownership with no fault present. the day i was at honda service there were 2 other owners requesting service for a srs on light. jenkins and wynne honda of clarksville, tn services my veh.
