Vehicle is a 2001 Honda Accord ex with 3. 0 liter v-6 engine. Srs light on dash came on. I have been told that this means that the air bags will not deploy in an accident. I have also been told that the dealer charges $1300 to replace the srs module - which I do not have. Why isn't this safety feature covered under warranty?.
My srs air bag light came on about a year ago. I though it was a glitch because it happened at around 100000 miles. Someone told me recently that my air bags would not deploy with this light on so I have made an appointment to get it looked and have been told the airbag system may have to be replaced!!!!!!!!! I got online to research and have found that this is happening on many many 2001 Accords. This is serious, why isn't it being recalled!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is peoples lives you are dealing with. Most people can't afford to spend that kind of money for something that is obviously a manufacturer error. But how can you not fix it when most people by Honda because they are safe!.

One day, my srs check light came on randomly. I researched it on the internet to see what the problem may be, and I was informed that they're one of the very common problems associated with the 6th generation Accords, that are caused by no real problems. Honda corporation is not willing to offer a remedy about the problem, even though it involves safety issues (airbags will not deploy when the srs light is illuminated). I have to take it to the dealer now and pay $80+, just to have it checked out. If my srs needs to be replaced, as with most cases experienced by other Accord owners, it will be another $700+ for replacement. . Thank you for your time and attention.

The airbag indicator on the dashboard comes on and stays on for no apparent reason. After a while it goes off on its own. Sometimes it will come on and off intermittently. I had this problem since I bought the car brand new. I took it to crystal lake Honda, crystal lake, IL even before the one year warranty expired and they said they could not see anything wrong with it. The problem still persists. Today I was going through the complaints on this site and was shocked to see 20 complaints related to either this same exact problem or the fact that the airbags either did not deploy during accident or deployed un-necessarily. I hope Honda does something about this. I bought a Honda Accord over a competing model because this one had side airbags. Now after reading how the airbags do not deploy I am upset. Let me know if there is a fix to this problem and what I can tell the dealer.

I was alone and stopped at a red light when a vehicle hit me from behind. I had no warning of the approaching car since the driver had fallen asleep. His airbag deployed. My car was knocked directly forward into the truck in front of me, and that truck was knocked into the van in front of it. My airbags did not deploy and my seatbelt/shoulder harness did not prevent me from fracturing my eye-socket on the steering wheel. Based on the force of the impact, I believe that my shoulder harness should have prevented this devastating injury. After repairs that did not include replacing the harness, I am still subject to the same type of injury.
While traveling eastbound at approximately 35 mph a car traveling westbound made a left turn causing me to hit the car head on. My air bags did not deploy.

At about 683 miles, srs light went on after passenger sat down (car was standing with engine idling). Dealer reset computer after finding code 15-3. 3 days later, the srs light came back on also immediately after passenger was seated with car engine on. Dealer was contacted and I waited about one week while dealer ordered possible replacement parts. None of the new parts including sensor fixed the problem, so original parts were left in the vehicle. I was told the original parts were already updated by Honda (because Honda was aware of this problem and had already made changes to parts in some vehicles). Dealer reset computer again, but srs light reappeared the next day while I was driving with no passenger in the car. Dealer says they can do nothing else, that the manufacturer knows about the problem but cannot fix it. Service manager said Honda's working on the problem and therefore I must now deal exclusively with the manufacturer. Dealer says only passenger air bags are affected but it is not clear how they know this. In the meantime, I have been told that the passenger airbag will not deploy in the event of a crash. I am very concerned about this for all airbags in the car, and also about possible inadvertent deployment. I am very disappointed about the lack of concern both by dealer and manufacturer about potential injuries that may result from this defect and the fact that a solution is not imminent.
