    The srs light came on in my 2001 honda accord. Nothing prompted it. It means the airbags won't work in an accident. Apparently it is a common problem and costs anywhere form $600-1300 to fix. *tr

    On my 2001 honda accord ex srs light on after small accident, this is not covered via my insurance nor is it covered via honda. Honda states that it will only repair the passenger side portion. How does this help if i am in an another more serious accident. To add i am a low income person and spending $2000 and 105 to have nothing done is not acceptable. *tr

    The supplemental restraint system (srs) light remains on while the vehicle is in operation, which supposedly indicates that there is a problem with the airbags or seatbelts. As i understand it, this is a common problem with this model of car. *tr

    I own a 2001 honda accord ex v6 vehicle. I have had the srs light come on since the last couple of days. Having gone through the list of complaints registered with nhtsa, i am really concerned with this issue. My vehicle had run a little more than 103,000 miles and i believe it still falls under the free opds replacement period as stated by the nhtsa authority. Please let me know how this problem is to be resolved.…

    Supplemental restraint system becomes inoperative for several reasons, possibly including weak battery, cell phone use, placement of lightweight package on front passenger seat. Dealer was intent on collecting scanner fee claiming no warranty responsibility on a temporary error message. I offered to buy a replacement battery at above market rate if dealer would absorb the scanner charge. Dealer declined and urged me…

    Srs sensor light came on while vehicle was in operation and has never went off. After much research it appears that diag. And repair of this problem will be time consuming, expensive and will only be a temporary fix to a repetitive problem. In the mean time i will have to worry about whether or not my air bags are in fact; operational, non-operational or liable to deploy without cause. *jb

    Red srs light illuminated on the dashboard. Called honda dealership. They claim it is not a recurring problem and it will cost $100 to read the error code, and $600-$1300 to fix depending on what failed. I waited at the dealership and talked to 3 other people with the exact same issue. Honda is clearly avoiding responsibility for a faulty seat belt airbag system. *ak

    The srs light came on in my 2001 honda accord ex and does not go off. The dealer wants $125 to diagnose the problem and $1300 to replace the sensor unit. The service man never told me that this is a problem with accords, but is clearly indicated as a problem in several web sites. I bought this car specifically for the side air bags and paid extra for them up front. Now i don't know if the air bags will work in case…
