Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The srs light turned on last week at 75000 miles, and i know that it is related to the airbag restraint system. my husband had the same problem couple of years ago , and the dealer told him that the use of cellophane may have caused the system to malfunction. the dealer fixed it for free because the car was still under the 36000 mile warranty. after doing some investigation i found out that this problem was very common for the 2001 models. i also found out that this problem was very costly and was no longer under warranty. i got into a car accident in march 2007, the front end of my car slid into a snow bank, and i am thankful that the damage was not major. the air bags never deployed . the srs light turned on a couple of weeks after the accident, and i was not sure if i ever had any protection at the time of the accident, since the airbags never deployed. now every time i get into my car i am very nervous because my life behind the wheel of this honda was at stake. i do not have any money to buy another car or fix get the current issue. honda should issue a recall on this!! peoples lives were in danger when they were on the road, and this should not be taken lightly by anyone. i am a mother, a wife, a sister, and a daughter. my life has value. please look into this. thank you . *ak |
