| Seat Belt problems |
Airbag sign above gas comes up every now and then and stays on for a while until I turn off the engine. Took vehicle to dealer but he said that he cannot do anything until he sees light. But light doesn't stay on all the time.
Similar issue as report 10659813. The airbag/seatbelt light above the gas gauge randomly stays lit. Doesn't happen each time the vehicle is used, and occurs more in cold weather than warm. Dealer has been notified several times and each time states that they could not do anything unless we brought the vehicle to them while the light was on. This situation does not happen consistently enough to allow us to take it to a dealer when the light is on.
The seat belts in the 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid provided no safety in a collision. The airbags also failed to deploy in the same collision. I was the passenger in the front seat of a 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid when we rear ended a Volvo s-80. The Volvo then struck an altima. The accord struck the Volvo with considerable force. The Volvo's trunk was damaged and would not open. The structural bar in the accord protecting the radiator was also bend beyond repair. I had the passenger seat as far back as it would go and was wearing my seat belt. During the collision my knees struck the front dash and swelled. The driver also suffered severe knee pain mostly likely from striking her knees against the dash or steering column. I believe the airbags should have deployed. Even if the bags did not deploy then the seat belts should have held. The seat belts in the 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid provided no safety in a collision.
