1 Seats problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2017

My car was seen for recall but my car still isn't fixed to where it's safe to drive.

2 Seats problem

Failure Date: 08/01/2015

"takata recall" shortly after the recall the srs light came on dash and has stayed on. Possibly related to air bag, seat sensor or seat buckles. Honda refused warranty service, "not a covered item" suggested replacement of the srs unit at $800. 00 for the parts. We maintain it's all part of the same safety system and should be covered. After reading on the web it varies from dealer to dealer weather they will cover it or not. We just want whats fair. Please advise. Original owner. Valerie valencia.
