My mother's car is garage kept and only has 31,000 miles. I haven't driven her car in years and when I did the other day I noticed that the airbag light was on and did not come off. She is elderly and she thought that it was her seat belt light. I took it into Honda dealer right away because of all of the recalls going on. They said that it would cost $517 to fix the restraint control unit for the airbag. Explained as little computer to tell the airbags when to deploy if in an accident. If not fixed airbags will not deploy if in an accident. Shouldn't this be covered under warrantee or considered in the recalls! now I am seeing complaints about this all over the net. So now what? and will this be included with all of the massive airbag recall problems? at first we were told that the recall did not include this year and model. . . . I beg to differ.
