Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My srs has come on for the third time in my car. the dealer told me while the srs light is on, the air bags won't deploy in the event of an accident. the first two times this has happen, the dealer reset the light. they told me it would cost $800 to fix. i don't have $800 sitting around, therefore i had them reset the light. this is a major safety concern honda needs to address. i bought a car with air bags, and right now my air bags won't deploy. if the seatbelts in my car are covered under a lifetime warranty then why aren't the air bags (it's all part of the srs). i have done absolutely nothing to the car to cause this. i don't feel i should have to sacrifice my life as well as any of my passenger's lives because i don't have $800 to fix honda's problem. i've checked other resources on the internet and have found numerous honda owners with the same problem. i think this should prompt an immediate recall.*ak
