The air bag light has been coming on and off saying that I need to take it by the dealer for them to fix it. Went by there Monday they cleared code and then it came back on Monday evening. Dropped it off this morning and they said it gonna cost over 300$. There is a recall on this but my VIN did not show up. But it still could be affected.
I have contacted Honda America about this (case10206483). The front passenger airbags are often not activated when the car is in motion with an adult significantly weighing more than 65 lbs. Sitting on that seat, while all conditions specified in the owner's guide are met. As an example of the problem, multiple times when my 82 lb. Wife has sat on the front passenger seat the passenger airbag off indicator would at first go out, as it should. But after we drive for a little while, it goes on and stays on for the rest of the trip, indicating that the passenger airbags are off, thus putting her at risk. My Honda dealer has verified related problems by taking my wife for drives in my car. He got the same problems in another 2020 Accord lx cvt. He has also had his personnel sit in the front passenger seat and got the same problems. He has given up. The dealer tested all relevant parts. They worked perfectly. But then he tested the weight-sensor with my wife on the seat. The reading was 50 lbs. For an 82 lb. Woman. Note that I weigh 132 lbs. And have no such problems. I wonder how many adults are driving around while sitting in the front passenger seat not realizing that they are at risk because the airbags are off. This might also apply to other makes and models. I suggested that serious consideration be given to lowering the weight-sensor reading that commands the passenger airbags to be turned on, so that the airbags are active for passengers weighing significantly more than 65 lbs. , like my wife.
