I purchased a 2000 honda accord for my daughter and the srs light came on. I took it to the dealer who scanned it and said it needed a new opds unit and sensor costing over $800.50. As i research it, i am astonished to see how many honda's are affected by this problem and that a widespread recall is not in effect. Please investigate this serious safety issue that could cause airbags not to deploy. This is…

I spoke with a customer service representative by the name of [xxx] from american honda motor co., inc. On june 12, 2005 about an srs related problem relating to their technical service bulletin 06-009 dated february 5, 2008. I was told that the warranty has already expired because the vehicle is more than 10 years old even if the mileage is less than 124,000 miles. I am the second owner of the vehicle when it was…

I have had trouble with my honda's seat belt staying locked in. I've also have the srs light on after a battery change. I figured out how to reset it but it comes right back on. I have taken the car into honda and they tell me my car is "not affected" by any recalls...i explained the seat belts are supposed to be covered under a lifetime warranty. They wanted 125.00 diagnostic fee to determine if it was the seat…

The srs light came on. Honda tells us that the component that regulates the airbags (a mini-computer in the dash?) has failed and must be replaced. Honda advises that, until replaced, the airbags will not work. Based on the internet research i have done, this appears to be a fairly common problem. Honda wants to charge $1000 to replace the unit, although it appears that the component is available online for about…

The srs light has come on my 2000 accord. Now it is past the extended warranty of 10 years. I got suckered into paying $100 to honda for them to diagnose. They came back and said the opds needs to be replaced and the airbag won't deploy because of the srs light on. They wanted another $300 to replace. I decided not to replace because i am not convinced it won't fail again but now i am driving around knowing my…

The srs light has gone off approximately once a year for approximately the last 5 years. It has always been caused by a sensor in the seat belt, which is covered by warranty. However, the dealer always tries to charge a diagnosis fee to determine if it is a warranty issue and it is a safety issue every time the light goes off. It is also a huge inconvenience. The dealer has told me that the airbags will not work…

Srs light stays on. This indicates that the airbags may not deploy in an accident. Honda lifetime warranty for restraint system should cover this, but they don't. Seat belt switches were checked and ok so sensor needs to be replaced. Repair cost estimate: up tp $900. Why isn't nhtsa issuing a recall for this potential safety issue? Look at the long list of complaints for this in the database! *tr

Failure of opds unit on my 2000 honda accord 4-door v-6.

My opds unit has failed just 3 months after the 10 year extension. This is the 2nd sds system failure as the seat belt sensor has failed in the past. Honda now covers the seat belt failure on the many accord…

I also have a 2000 honda accord lx with approx. 134,000 miles and the srs indicator light stays on. The authorized honda dealer reported that this was not under a recall per my vin. Even a quick search indicates that this is a very common defect with this model and year. Honda needs to issue a safety recall on this problem. *tr

I am not on the recall list however i called honda as the srs light remains on. After speaking to 4 representatives at honda they informed me that the previous owner responded to a recall in 2006 service bulletin recall 06-009 - code opds which is for faulty airbags and seatbelts. The previous owner had repair done according to honda 3/31/2010 - 10 year warranty. I bought this car at 89000 odometer on 10/11/2012.…

Srs light illuminated, airbags will not deploy if involved in accident. This has occurred on our 2000 honda accord with 67k miles on it. We understand that the warranty has been extended for this issue to 10 years or 150k miles, ours is now ten years old. We feel this is unacceptable and that honda should cover this for the lifetime of the vehicle. This is why people buy vehicles with all the airbags...safety! Honda…
