I have had my srs light on since i purchased this car in july of 2017. my seat belts do not lock at the appropriate times. i was also involved in a wreck driving in rain on the interstate and hydroplaned. i hit a median going about 50 mph. no air bags ejected from the impact. the results of the impact were a dented fender, replacement of the driver side control arm, new ball joints, as well as a desperately needed tire alignment. i feel if this impact was hard enough to bend the control arm then my air bags should have ejected, but i'm no mechanic. thank you.
2002 accord collided into the side of another vehicle, causing the accord's driver airbag to deploy. the metal cap from the driver airbag inflator was blown through the driver airbag fabric and into the driver's neck. the driver's death certificate describes the cause of death "complications of blunt and sharp force injuries of the neck". the hot inflator melted a location on the driver airbag fabric. the vehicle is in a storage facility in phoenix, arizona.
Takata airbag issue: i was in a front end collision at a speed of about 20mph on a city street with no one in the passenger seat. the vehicle sustained significant front end damage, resulting in loss of the front bumper, damage to the hood and to the front engine components, including leaking of window washer and transmission fluids. the driver's air bag did not deploy, but in my estimation, is should have done so. i was not injured since i was wearing a seat belt. the air bag is a replacement air bag that was replaced by a honda dealer in virginia, at the very beginning of the takata air bag recall. i am simply reporting this as a potential safety issue, since i believe that the replacement air bag should have deployed as naturally as a factory installed one.

Had an accident on the way to work. hit a car straight on in the back. i was in motion. my front end was totally smashed in. i would like to know why the passenger side airbag deployed and no one was in that seat and my driver's side airbag did not deploy at all. i am now suffering substantial pain and bruises across my chest, right breast and across my entire lower abdomen. yes, the outcome could have been worse or even fatal, but i'm blessed to have walked away from this. i love my honda and been a honda owner since about 2003. i would like to purchase another honda but i have my doubts now. if this should happen again can i trust that the next car will do the job that it was meant to do as far as the air bag is concerned i have taken my car twice to have it serviced for the takata recalls. i also will add that i get my service done on a regular basis with an actual honda dealer even though my care is a 2002. check the records if i am not mistaken, the recalls were for defected inflation, not because it wouldn't deploy at all. my question is why did my airbag not do the job that it was supposed to do?

Takata recall: i rolled my car on my way to work in august of 2015. i had gotten a letter 2 weeks prior of an airbag recall. i called the local dealerships but due to high volume i was put on a waiting list. my airbags didn't deploy and my driver's seatbelt didn't lock. i suffered a fracture to the base of my skull and a traumatic brain injury. i couldn't work at all for 9 months and could only work 10-15 hours a week for several months after that. a week after the car accident i was fired from my job without severance pay and i called honda headquarters and they told me to keep checking for class action lawsuits. i was driving on a backroad going 40 mph and i hit some lose gravel. i over reacted and turned the wheel causing me to make a u turn. i hit my breaks hard to stop and make sure my seatbelt would lock. the momentum of stopping caused my honda to roll. since the airbags didn't deploy my face repeatedly hit the steering wheel and because my seatbelt didn't lock my head smashed the roof of the honda repeatedly.
I received a recall notice from honda saying "...have your vehicle's driver's front airbag inflator replaced, at no cost to you." this is part of nhtsa recall 14v-351 i go to the dealer - ken harvey's dublin honda and they say they will inspect the air bag and if it is not a tanaka inflator, then it will not be replaced. i show them the recall notice saying it would be replaced. the service rep said that per honda, they only inspect and if it is not a tanaka, then it will not be replaced. either american honda motor and or the nhtsa should clarify this recall notice. honda knows exactly which car i have and should know which inflator i have. the recall notice says they will replace it, but they now claim it is not a tanaka inflator and they will not replace it.

I received a recall notice via mail several months ago. i first visited the honda dealer in burlington massachusetts in february this year and i was told they would call me when they had the part needed to fix the car. by the end of july, i had already received a second letter regarding the same issue and the honda dealer still hadn't called me. i went the following week again, showed them the letter and they told me they would call me the next year. as for now, they have not done so. it has been almost a year! this is a problem that can actually kill people, this can not be taken as a joke. this is not acceptable.
