6 Front Driver Side Air Bag Inflator problem

Failure Date: 11/26/2011

The srs light of my 04 Honda Accord has been on since late 2011. Since it's a long drive, I adjusted the position of my driver's seat to make myself comfortable. Somehow, the srs light started to turn on and it has been on ever since, indicating the airbag might be deactivated. I researched online and realized it's a well-known issue related to driver's seat position sensor harness. Honda announced a safety recall back in January 2007 to fix this issue for some vehicles of certain models. The model I have was included in the recall but not the particular vehicle I have. I contacted Honda for explanation and they insisted it be my own responsibility to get this diagnosed and fixed. Many Honda owners including myself just never received any recall notice that we think we deserve. Relating this to the recent Honda scandal of under-reporting the number of people died in Honda vehicles, it could be a similar scheme of practice of under estimating the number of vehicles involved in the recall. I finally got a recall notice several weeks ago regarding the airbag inflator issue and I thought both the srs and inflator issues would be fixed with a single service. I was wrong and the dealer only took care of the inflator not the srs. I called Honda and they ignored my complaint once again. I hope federal regulators can investigate this case and I know I'm not alone. Life could have been lost due to non-opening Honda airbags. I believe it's a bigger problem.
