    My driver side air bag is already deployed. When i called my honda dealership to schedule the passenger side, i asked if the driver side would also be done. The rep said that it would. When i got to the dealership, they tried to charge me $250.00 to have it done. I cannot afford this. The date of 05/01/2015 is a guess.
