After having taken the Acura to dealer 3 times for the takata air bag recall initially all was well. Then every 3rd time I started the engine the red warning light for airbag failure would come on. Now over the last 6 months every time the engine is started the warning light comes on and stays on. Would expense to repair/replacement be covered?.
I took my Mdx in for recall 15-011 recall srs unit malfunction on 1/20/2016. The vehicle was in perfect working condition when I dropped it off. When I picked the unit up 3 lights are on in the dash srs, airbag off, airbag warning light. I ask the service writer what this is they said the new recall parts are not compatible with my system if I want it repaired it needs a new control unit $1400.
