    On september 27, 2008 i was involved in a collision where the front of my vehicle collided with the back of a stopped vehicle at a significant speed. The airbags in my 2000 honda accord did not inflate. The extent of the damages totaled the vehicle and i was interested in determining if the vehicle's airbags were defective at the time of the collision. *tr

    Srs sensor light has been on for about half a year now continuously without apparent reason. Dealer previously replaced the opds unit (about 2 years ago) and prior to that reset it a few times, but now the car's warranty has expired and srs light is on again. Dealer now wants to charge a $75 inspection fee plus $400-$700 to replace the unit, a unit that mind you was already supposed to have been replaced. Worried…

    The srs light has been on constantly for the past week. The dealer charges $97 just to diagnose the problem. After reading about all the similar complaints on this site and the fact that this is a safety issue, i don't believe there should be any charge to repair the airbag system. *tr

I contacted honda and was told there was not a recall and warranty would not cover after 10 years or 150,000 miles (which ever came first) i have 188,000 on my car so i did some searching on the internet and was stunned to find so many people looking for a solution to get the srs light off.

    Without any reason whatsoever, srs light came on and dealer would not even diagnose the problem without a substantial payment. I've read on the web that many honda users experience this problem around 100k miles. Air bags are federally mandated safety equipment like seatbelts. Seatbelts are covered by life-time warranty and so should be the air bags. The customer should not have to pay for failures of life-saving…

    I own a 2000 honda accord ex-v6. My srs light has come on twice now. The first time i had it reset by the dealer, and it cost me $100. They also claimed it was my front impact sensor. This vehicle has not been bumped or had an accident since i have owned it, so i fail to see how that could break. Now, the second time, the srs light has again come on and has been on my dash for several months. I am fairly certain…

However, when they ran the vin on my 2000 accord, they informed me that mine was not covered. They could give me no answer as to why some of 2000 were covered but mine, which has this critical…

    The srs unit for airbag deployment has failed on my 2000 honda accord lx with 104,000 miles. The honda dealers want ~$740.00 to replace this unit as there is no extended warranty or coverage beyond the manufacturers 36/36 factory warranty. Considering the essential necessity of this unit it seems unreasonable for this unit should fail within 104,000 miles and in less than 6 years. I had today 3 different honda…
