    My srs light on my 2000 honda accord has come on and it means my airbags arent working. I brought it in to a dealership and they gave me some bs about electonic interference. They didnt give me a permanent fix and im nervous that my airbags might not work. Honda doesnt have a permanent solution for getting the srs light fixed! Why do i have to pay for fixing a safety issue that clearly is honda's defective airbags?

    Car: 2000 honda accord 2dr v6 problem: srs light after numerous computer resets, srs light manages to come back on. After taking to dealer, was told on various occasions that it was due to faulty seat-belt sensor. Honda did not service due to out-of-warranty, and excessive cost to fix the sensor. Seems to be a manufacturer defect due to the nature of failure.

    Same problem as described in investigation #pe05043. The red srs warning light stuck on in my 2000 honda accord exv6 recently. It is after the warranty expired. There are two lights related to airbag in the car, one red, one orange "side airbag off". The orange light comes on and off depends on whether there is a light object on the passenger seat or not. The red light indicates problems and does not goes off even…

    While simply driving, the srs light on the dash turned on for my 2000 honda accord v6. It appears that many people receive the srs light in their hondas, yet few ever go get them fixed. The light has been fixed by the dealer for a whopping ~$400! This is absolutely outrageous. No wonder the people i know that has the srs light don't want to get it fixed. This is a safety hazard for the driver and should be fixed for…

    Srs light remains on. Side srs comes on in turns. Dealer has stated that something in the seat needs to be replaced and we have no driver srs at this time. Vehicle is under used certified warranty but dealer states this is not covered by warranty. We puchased a honda (have owned many!) because of reliability, durability and safety. Does not federal law require srs on current model vehicles? How can such a company…
