    After years of paying $100 a shot to have my honda accord srs light analyzed and turned off, the opds was replaced under honda's extended warranty. Guess what? The srs light came back on a week later. I'm told by honda customer service i have to go back to a dealer, pay another $100 for another evaluation. They also said i could get reimbursed for all the times i already paid the fee if i could get the service…

    The srs light comes on by itself. This means that airbags won't be deployed in a crash. The dealer said it will scost ~ 1000-1500 $ to fix it. Airbags should be covered for lifetime. Reading the following website: http://www.carcomplaints.com/honda/accord/2001/seat_belts_air_bags/srs_light_keeps_coming_on.shtml this is a very common complaint. *nm

    At around 43,000 miles, the srs light came on in our 2000 honda accord. I called the local honda dealer and they said that i would have to pay $60 for a diagnostic test, then a charge for fixing the defective part. I asked what would be the cost to replace the air bag, if that was the problem, and they said that they would not tell me the cost. *nm

    My srs light came on. I believe this is related to a safety item, the airbags of the car. When i called the local dealership (open road honda) they informed me that it would cost 105 just to diagnose the problem then from there it would be additional costs. I read on your website that all safety items should be fixed at no cost. The dealer told me that only safety belts are under that warranty. I'm very unhappy. I…

    My supplemental restraint system (srs) warning light went on. This is serious because when the light is on, honda told me, that the airbags are disengaged. I took the 2006 honda accord sedan v6 to the dealer. The service department told me that there was a service bulletin out on this problem, 02-077 dated dec 17, 2002. I was told it would take $1600 to fix. I read the service bulletin. It states that this problem…

    The srs light will not go off after starting the car. It was tested by a honda dealer and i was told that they reset the light but if it came on again, i would have to purchase a new srs unit at a very high cost. Three hours after leaving the dealer, the light came back on and will not go off. Since this is a safety feature like the seat belts, the dealer/manufacturer should replace this at no cost to me. *jb

    I have a 2000 accord, the srs light came on and stays on. I have read that this condition will make my air bags useless until repaired. I will take my honda in for the repair and hope that i will not be charged for this since it has been a honda problem for several years according to honda owners web sites. *nm

    Air bag cel is on thus disable the air bag function in the car. Check system results in no apparent problem. Reset would clear the problem from 1 day to 1 month, then the cel is re-appeared again. According to the mechanic, the problem is a faulty air bag control module from the manufacture and affect many similar cars within this model year. People on the internet forum are experienced the same thing with this srs…

    Hello i am writing about my honda accord lx, 2000, 4 cylinders. Without any reason (while driving the car), the srs light went on. When i checked with the honda dealer from where i purchased the car, they mentioned that the computer that controls the airbags is not working anymore. The cost to fix/replace the computer is $960.00. I research on the internet and there are many honda accord with the same problem. This…

    Srs light is on all the time. It used to come on at different times, now it stays on all the time. It costs a lot of money to fix it. It is an important safety feature, and i feel airbags should have lifetime warranty just like seat belts. I noticed that this is a common problem in many 2000 and 2001 honda accords from searching on google.com *jb

    After a [redacted] on a rainy day (nov 29,2005), the srs light came on and has not gone off. The rain may be a coincidence. The vehicle was hit in front, but did not set off the airbags. Living in atlanta, driving in our traffic at a rate of 3000+ miles per month, i am not excited about not having working airbags. Several mechanics have attempted to diagnose, but no permanent solution has been found. *jb

    The srs indicator light came on at 74,000 miles. From reading through the complaints, it seems this is a common problem with 2000 honda accords. It also seems that people have spent a lot of money to "try" to correct this problem, but with little success. Now i have to decide between spending a lot of money, possibly to no avail, or driving an unsafe car with no airbags. Please investigate asap and issue a recall,…

    Srs light keeps on. I have a 2000 honda accord v6 and have it maintained by o'donnell honda(8620 baltimore national pike, ellicott city, md 21043). In sept. 2005, the srs light began to keep coming on. On oct.18, 2005, i took my car to the o'donnell honda. A representative/technician told me the air bag has no problem but it has a code 15-3 and need to be re-set. I was charged $41.50 for re-setting the srs light.…
