Takata recall I am afraid to drivbe my car because of these issues.

Letter from senator nelson on behalf of constituent re a highly volatile takata airbag that is installed in his 2001 Honda civic. The consumer was informed there was no open campaign recall information available for his vehicle. The consumer never referenced owning a 2001 Honda civic. He stated he owns a 2000 Honda Accord. The consumer stated older models, were mysteriously missing from the official Honda recall list, which only go back as far as July 2001.

2000 Honda Accord. Consumer requests vehicle airbag recall information.

2000 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle VIN# is not on airbag recall list.

The sub frame on the passenger side of the vehicle is rusted out. The rust is below the ac drain hose. The vehicle is unsafe to operate. The dealer gave me an estimate of $2200 for the repair. No damage/rust on drivers side where a/c does not drain. The mileage is 158,080. Also see srs light.

Takata recall I bought this car with no air bag and also suspension is no good.

When the battery was replaced, the asr light turns on.

Tl- the contact owns a 2000 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the srs warning lamp illuminated indicating an air bag malfunction. The contact was not included in NHTSA campaign id number: 02v080000 (air bags). The vehicle was not inspected and diagnosed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 83,000. Pam.

Started car on that date and light would not go out talked to Honda said there was a recall but not on this vehicle talked to mechanic to see about repair they said it was part of recall. It is not on list missed by one year so did they not get my car? srs light remains on no accidents or any other related issues.

The car was parked. Got into the car to leave and the air bags deployed when the ignition was turned on. The car was stationary and there was no impact to the front.

Red "srs" light came on in July 2012 and has never gone off since. I have the notice from Honda dated spring 2006 about this problem and how they are covering this problem for 10 years or 150,000 miles. I called Honda in CA at 800-999-1009 on 8/23/12 and was told that they will not cover the repair because the car is over 10 years from its June 2000 built date. The car had 130100 miles on the day I called. Funny thing is that they will cover any seat belt problem for the life of the car regardless of the number of owners but they won't cover the srs airbag system, I called my local Honda dealer where I bought the car from and the service manager told me to bring it in now, which I did. They scanned the srs system for a code. Came up the occupant position detection system ( opds). I asked if the air bags would still deploy in a crash with the srs light on and he said no. I want to know that the air bags will work and I feel Honda should repair this defect for free since it is a life saving safety system. I called Honda again after I got home from the dealership to try to speak to someone higher up in management chain and as usual I got nowhere. This is an expensive repair and it's dealer only parts. There seems to be many people with the same problem when I searched "2000 Accord srs on" and most of the people with this light on said that they are or did not get it fixed due to the high quoted cost of the repair. These cars are on the road with non-working srs/ airbags systems because Honda used substandard parts that did not last as long as they should have and than refuses to properly fix this problem,that's just not right! I wish the NHTSA would order Honda to recall and repair these cars regardless of mileage or time at no charge. Alot of these older Honda Accords will end up being purchased used by the younger drivers who can't afford a brand new car.

I spoke with a customer service representative by the name of [xxx] from american Honda motor CO. , inc. On June 12, 2005 about an srs related problem relating to their technical service bulletin 06-009 dated February 5, 2008. I was told that the warranty has already expired because the vehicle is more than 10 years old even if the mileage is less than 124,000 miles. I am the second owner of the vehicle when it was purchased from a private party back in 2004. Since these models came without an air conditioning unit, I had one installed the same year (2004) at the closest dealership near our place of residence. Because of this service, they should have updated the ownership record for this vehicle to reflect my name as the new owner. When this bulletin came out, Honda failed to furnish me a copy of the TSB since I only found out from them on June 25, 2012 that the said vehicle was still registered with the first owner. When the problem about the srs unit occurred which was directly related to the bulletin they released on February 5, 2008 they would not honor the bulletin anymore and even told me that my vehicle was not covered, even if the bulletin specifically states that the vehicles affected included "2000-2001 Honda Accord 2-dr and 4-all with opds". I went to the dealership last Friday, 6/22/2012 without knowing that this TSB ever existed and they were charging me a substantial fee to get it fixed even though it is a factory defect and should be fixed by them without cost to me. My complaint is that they failed to furnish me a copy of the service bulletin and now that this problem has occurred to my vehicle they will not honor that service bulletin. I would have brought my car in to get fixed even without this problem had I received this bulletin on time. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I have had trouble with my Honda's seat belt staying locked in. I've also have the srs light on after a battery change. I figured out how to reset it but it comes right back on. I have taken the car into Honda and they tell me my car is "not affected" by any recalls. . . I explained the seat belts are supposed to be covered under a lifetime warranty. They wanted 125. 00 diagnostic fee to determine if it was the seat belt and what the code is if it isn't the seat belt I have to pay the diagnostic fee and 800. 00. To get the airbags to work for something that is supposed to be covered under a lifetime warranty,. I even tried going back to a different service adviser. Reading online I see that many people have the srs failure and some suspect the cause relates to battery and alternator voltage! appears to be a convenient failure to state whatever they want and get the owner to pay! recently, Honda has had to recall airbags. Maybe it's a blessing that people's airbags have been rendered useless since they blow up and have killed people!! I hope the NHTSA realizes how many peoples airbags haven't even been working! well surprise, my car isn't covered under the latest airbag replacement. I am most dissatisfied with Honda they are not standing behind their products and don't seem to care if they lose customers (by death or otherwise). I tried calling there 800 number several times to no avail they were rude and condescending. This was my 3rd Honda and my last. The recall even states there is not to be a charge to check this however, they will not without me paying there fee! don't care the NHTSA and Honda's own recall notice is irrelevant to them. In light of the latest issues with airbags I think I will write an editorial for the local news or maybe call the local television station to highlight this issue ongoing blatant disregard for their customers.

The srs light came on. Honda tells us that the component that regulates the airbags (a Mini-computer in the dash?) has failed and must be replaced. Honda advises that, until replaced, the airbags will not work. Based on the internet research I have done, this appears to be a fairly common problem. Honda wants to charge $1000 to replace the unit, although it appears that the component is available online for about $325, and requires about an hour of labor to install. This seems to us to be a pretty fundamental safety issue, and this component should be engineered to last well beyond the anticipated lifetime of the vehicle.

The srs light has come on my 2000 Accord. Now it is past the extended warranty of 10 years. I got suckered into paying $100 to Honda for them to diagnose. They came back and said the opds needs to be replaced and the airbag won't deploy because of the srs light on. They wanted another $300 to replace. I decided not to replace because I am not convinced it won't fail again but now I am driving around knowing my airbags won't deploy. There is an obvious faultyness with the srs and opds and I can't believe that Honda feel a warranty extension is sufficient. They should be recalling this serious safety problem.

Was hit on the drivers side front.

Hit on the front drivers side.

I have Accord se 2000. The srs light stays on. The dealer must take responsibility and fix this problem of main control unit malfuction.

Dash light for right airbag came on and an alarm while driving and is still on.

Dear NHTSA: I am writing about my 2000 Honda Accord coupe which had an accident on may 22nd, 2010. I was driving in dry conditions along I-85 north in jefferson county, georgia when the left rear tire suddenly blew out causing my car to flip and roll over. We do not know what caused the blowout. I lost consciousness briefly and my neck was severely broken. I had to have an operation and will be out of work for at least three months. My son was injured but not as severely as me, with many cuts on his face and ear. Two other occupants received many bruises and cuts on arms, legs and faces. The car was a total loss. There are two issues that seem to point to defects in the car. The first is that the roof collapsed so much that it hit my head and almost killed me. The second issue is that none of the four air bags deployed. It seems to me that with so much damage to the car as it rolled over and crushed the roof, that the air bags should have deployed. I would appreciate your investigating this car to see if federal guidelines were violated.

I have a Honda Accord 2000 ex with 132000 miles. 1. The dashboard light does not work so I cannot see the equipment reading 2. The srs light on and stays on after the jump start the car. I check the online there are so many of the Honda Accord that have the same problem and this should be the safety issue. Honda should take care of them.

I am not on the recall list however I called Honda as the srs light remains on. After speaking to 4 representatives at Honda they informed me that the previous owner responded to a recall in 2006 service bulletin recall 06-009 - code opds which is for faulty airbags and seatbelts. The previous owner had repair done According to Honda 3/31/2010 - 10 year warranty. I bought this car at 89000 odometer on 10/11/2012. Approx. 6 months ago the srs light came on. I contacted Honda with no assistance as they said there is a 10 year warranty on this recall. Yesterday I started by getting assistance from emily, briana, nicole and alexis at Honda - case no. N012015-05-2002159 and to expect a call from Honda. Yesterday afternoon james (no id or last name) regional case manager. He informed me that he could not assist me. 1. I am not the original owner. 2. I am not a loyal Honda owner as I have not bought another Honda. 3. No repairs through Honda. 4. The car is over 10 years old. I informed him to check another recall which supercedes the previous recall and dated 3/14/2006. He informed me to have the repair done at my expense at Honda and the case is closed. I told him that this was a fault with Honda and it is not 10 years since the recall and I fear driving my only car with an enormous problem in case of an accident - seat belts and airbags and an enormous danger to me and my grandchildren. He informed me that this was not his or Honda's responsibility. Please help me. I need Honda to take responsibility.

My 2000 Honda Accord srs light is on, no any accident was involved. The light keeps on even after reset several times. I wonder if the manufacturer covers the cost of replacement for vehicle safety.

Multiple issues with Honda Accord 2000 ex v6 3. 0l. 96k miles as of 11/25/09 1. Srs light has been on and dealer is not fixing it saying it is not a safety issue 2. Transmission failed and I had to spend 2k fixing it 3. Egr clogged and check engine light is on. Dealer not fixing it saying it has been done before.

My 2000 Honda Accord ex multiplex control unit malfunctioned causing my dash lights to go out and I can't see my dash panel at night ie. Speedometer. This is a safety issue and I am a single mom with 2 young kids and haven't owned the car for even a year and less than 10 years old and less than 100,000 miles and nothing I did caused the multiplex control unit to malfunction and there is a recall on this already for 2000 Honda Accord but american Honda has given my several excuses as well as the salesperson at the dealership called and was told a different answer one was with the plant car came from. One was if it was a v6 then one was having an lx model one was with saying the mileage issue or they would fix it. Basically just a bunch of bs over and over. They need to honor their recall. Honda is supposed to be a safe dependable car and now I have a safety issue with driving and I am nurse and have to use my car for work and oncall but a night can't see the dash lights. I also have my srs light on which is another issue which my total airbag system needs to be replaced with a warranty on it as well but not with my exactly problem which there is another manufacturer malfunction but won't fix as well when nothing I did with either safety issues caused these to malfunction and american Honda is aware and has recalls on these but won't honor the recalls with my 2000 Honda Accord.

For no apparent reason at all (no moisture problem; no cell phone, computer, etc. Use; no disconnecting anything at all, much less related to seat belts, passenger seat occupancy, seat removal, etc. ) the srs light came on and has remained on for many months. Google shows this to be a widespread problem, which has triggered a very wide range of responses from Honda. This has been a wonderful car given timely completion of all scheduled maintenance. But the srs light problem, since it involves the safety restraining systems, should be guaranteed for the life of the car. But, given the various ways people with this issue have been treated, I am reluctant to take the vehicle to Honda. It may only require a reset for the light, which should cost nothing. But charges for a diagnosis are in the $70-100 range. Then, if there is actually a problem with safety, fixes have cost in a range of $600-1500. The whole situation is absurd.

I have a 2000 Honda Accord lx. The srs light is on. Honda service centers don't want to fix this under the warranty because they say there is no recall for this item. However, I have found out that there are thousands of people with this same issue online. There is no way of knowing if this is a seat belt or air bag problem and Honda wants to charge $100 for a diagnostics on a very common issue among Honda owners. This is a safety item that needs to be recalled on all Hondas with the srs light on.

Srs light came on and will not turn off. My car's VIN is not part of the safety recall, so Honda will not pay for the repair. No accidents, under 66k miles on a 2000 Accord. This is ridiculous.
