The FRONTAL
2005 Honda Accord

I was driving like any other day on the freeway and my passenger airbag deployed for no apparent reason- there was no accident at all. luckily there was no one in the passenger seat. after contacting honda they said they would send a representative to the local dealership to check to take care of the repair but the honda dealership in el cerrito ca did not want to pay for the repair and wanted to charge full amount to fix it saying the car is out of warranty. i needed my car soon for my transportation so i went to my trusted mechanic to repair the airbag and he informed me it was not safe to drive becuase the driver's airbag could deploy at anytime which could result in a crash or injury or fatality. i would appreciate a full refund from honda for cost of the repair as it came out to be $3,374.68. this cost is very high and i am not responsible for this safety malfunction. this is a major safety issue and i am very upset that honda does not want to fix what could have possibly caused a person harm. thank you *tr ...

The FRONTAL
2001 Honda Accord

Similar to other complaints already on file, the srs light stays on constantly. this problem was checked by a honda dealer and an independent auto repair facility. both concluded that either faulty wiring and electronics were causing this problem or that one of the airbags is defective. the estimated repair cost is $700. since the car has never been in an accident , the airbag system has never been touched since the car was manufactured. given the number of almost identical complaints that are already on file, honda should have been required to address this safety problem a long time ago. *tr

Honda sent a recall for the airbags. took to dealership and they said they would fix for free. had me wait 2 hours while they didn't do anything but look at my car. the srs light is still on. the government should step in and do something about it. how is it that thousands of hondas are riding around and the airbag wont even deploy if you get into a accident. not to mention honda wont even make sure that its safe. there should be a law stating that all recalls must be handled accordingly or get fined a hefty fine. 2001 honda accord v6.........still unsafe.......and upset. *tr
