| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The srs light on my 2001 honda civic has come on on at least three occasions. the first time it was under warranty so the dealership fixed it. the second time, it came on in june 2004, the car was out of warranty. the dealer diagnosed the problem as srs unit failure and i spent close to $400 to replace it from the dealer. the light came on another time in 2005 but it turned off after a couple of days. this time, in sept 2006, the light has come on all of a sudden. i have researched this problem on the internet and it seems that this is a problem faced by most honda civic and accord owners. i believe this is a gave safety issues since the dealer indicated that the air bags wont deploy if the srs light is on. i feel honda is not making enough efforts to fix the problem since it has been observed in 02 models as well. and i certainly do not feel happy about spending hundreds of dollars to fix it everytime it happens. honda dealers have a scripted answer to this problem ..blaming it on electronic interference, laptops, cell phone usage. i think that is bologna. *nm |
