    We were driving our 2006 honda accord ex-l (4cyl) and the srs light came on and we have previously (6 months before) had the airbags replace under the takata recall. We took the vehicle in immediately and found out that the airbag control module had failed and has to be replace at $650.00. I have never had an airbag control module fail and i am surprised that honda is not covering this safety issue.
