Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Since the day i purchased my vehicle (aug. 2004), the "side airbag"/"srs" light have continuously come on. i have repeatedly notified the dealership of the problem and they haven't a clue. there are instances where the warning light(s) have been on for well over 2 hrs or 200+ miles. i have brought the vehicle to more than one honda location for troubleshooting, and they all have no answer. according to honda's technicians, the warning lights are not leaving a trouble code, so they proclaim they have no possible solution for the issue. the common response is "the srs system is testing itself," "there are too many/too little objects in the seat," "cell phone interference," etc.. so far honda has not offered a proper solution, or even a probable cause. at this point i feel extremely unsafe in the vehicle due to this issue. individual's safety should not be a ignored or dismissed. i feel have been mislead from day one about the reliability, safety, or the car in general. i bought a certified used honda with the assumption of a excellent/quality vehicle. so far, i have experienced nothing but headaches, numerous serious safety/mechanical recalls, and a lack of interest on the part of honda. at this point, i am wasting my time, money, and possibly my health in this car. i do not feel safe, therefore i shouldn't have to settle for this vehicle--especially for the price i am expected to pay. it is disappointing to see issues as serious as these, being "swept under the carpet" by it's makers. *jb
