    My 2000 honda accord ex v6 with about 94,000 miles has the srs light on permanently. The diagnostic code provided to me by the dealer is 5-8, which is internal srs failure, and requires the srs unit to be replaced. This is not covered under the current warranty extension (campaign code q08, service bulletin 06-009) for opds. Given that the part is integral to the safety system, it seems that should have a much…

    I bought my honda accord this september. It had a rebuilt title due to minor dents and blemishes to the outside. No major wrecks. Looked and seemed in good condition. Dealer assured me that all of his cars were insurance claims due to minor exterior wear. He didn't take any cars that had been involved in wrecks. He was an "engineer" and didn't need to screw people over for money. I had my mechanic inspect it right…

    Srs light has been on for over a year. The dealer said it would be very expensive to have it "looked at." recently, the o2 sensor came on and i've made 3 trips to have it fixed. It will cost me 420.20 to have the problem solved. I've been reading about recalls for this very problem, and as a senior, i'd sure appreciate some help. This doesn't seem fair. *tr

    My 2000 honda accord se v4 auto has the mileage of 86,000. No accident or anything. Out of nowhere, srs light stayed on. I have nothing on or around the passage seat. The car does not have side airbags. It bothers me a lot because of safety concern. I called honda dealer and was told that they'd need the car during weekday for a whole day to diagnose, and cost would be from $150.00 and up. Sky is the limit. Besides,…

    The srs light on my 2000 honda accord ex indicating failure has illuminated for the secoind time. The first time i took the car to my honda dealereship and they rest the light, 1 minute job for $100. They said if it goes on again i may need a new system which can run up to $1000 or more. If this is an important safety component as defined by nhtsa, why is not covered by a lifetime warranty? *ak

    Srs light turned on spontaneously; honda keeping diagnostic codes secret, so my local shop is unable to fix; could be simple seat belt switch, could be airbag failure; not with $150+ to check for simple seat belt switch. Solution is to make the codes accessible to the public instead of keeping them secret so customers can choose where to have the repairs done instead of forcing repairs at honda dealership. *jb
