My drivers seat side airbag deployed and my srs light is on. I took my car to the Honda dealership and they told me the only thing covered in the recall is the igniter, which is in my steering wheel. They replaced this, which was described as the srs driver inflater and told me that the car will need to undergo a diagnostic test which will cost me $110 and that I will also have to pay to get my seat fixed, where the airbag deployed. I'm not sure why this wouldn't be covered in the recall when it's all related.

The bag is just hanging out of my seat and I don't feel I should pay to get this fixed. An airbag recall should cover anything related to the airbag system. I thought the airbag was controlled by the igniter that's in the steering wheel. I'm not sure why they would fix one thing and not the other. From what I have read, this is happening alot! there has to be something done about this. I don't have the money to pay for the damage that was done to my seat. It's ripped down the side and the airbag is hanging out.

Owner of a 2001 Honda Accord with only 20,000+ mileage. A week after an annual inspection, the srs light came on and has remained so. Dealer indicated a $90 diagnostic charge would be required and only waved if a part was found to be defective. I researched this issue on the NHTSA website and found this problem had been investigated in recent years after a significant number of owner complaints. I also found some revealing correspondence between the NHTSA and Honda regarding continuing problems with the srs light issue and although srs light warnings on some vehicles continued to occur repeatedly after addressing the dtc 15-3 code, NHTSA closed its #pe05043 investigation. I assumed this action was taken after it was determined that a safety issue was not involved and Honda agreed to extend the warranty on srs illumination and opds issues to 10 years or 150,000 miles. I never received a notification letter from Honda indicating a no cost replacement of the opds unit. My concern is, does the dealer have the right to charge a diagnostic fee ($90) if Honda extended the warranty and the history of issues involved in this frequently defective srs warning light apparently remain unresolved.
