| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: i'm the owner of a 2002 honda civic that experienced an unexpected airbag deployment. the car was not involved in an accident yet the passenger side airbag (only the passenger side) deployed while a was pulling into my driveway. this could have caused a serious accident if i had been on the highway when the bag deployed. since the car was not involved in an accident my insurance company will not cover the claim. the regional representative at honda refused to cover the repair because the car is beyond warranty and they had never seen the problem before. i believe there is a serious safety issue here that is not being addressed by honda; ie... if they agree to cover the cost of the repair they will be agreeing that the bag sensor was faulty. *nm |
