    This problem (srs lights) started within 12 miles from driving off the dealer lot. Was told it's normal-"forget about it". There have been only fleeting days between the christmas light show the dash lights put on. It does not instill confidence. Poor servic e guys can't fix it because nothing works. I don't want to drive a car without airbags . If i wanted a non-airbag equiped car, i would have paid less for one -…

    I've had problems with my srs dashboard light since i purchased the vehicle new in 2000. I had it repaired once and was reimbursed by honda. This time i'm told it is a problem with the $700 srs controller and is not covered. I'm told the airbags will not deploy while this light is on. Mine, and many other 2000 accords have had this safety related problem and it is inexcusable that it not be covered by…

    The srs warning light was on. The diagnosis determined the fault was caused by low system voltage even though the battery and electrical system tested to oem specs. No parts were replaced. The servicing dealership (gillman honda - houston) said the fault is due to a misdesign by honda. This problem may prevent the airbags from deploying (if the srs fault light is illuminated again). A safety recall should be…
