The srs system on my 2001 Honda Civic ex doesn't work, warning light stays on always.
The airbag srs light has needed to be reset four times since purchasing the new vehicle. The dealer is unsure if the airbag would deploy when the srs warning light is on. The dealer had a service bulletin posted in their office concerning this defect. The problem seems to be due to the susceptiblity of the airbag sensors to normally occurring rf from environmental sources that meet fcc standards for rf emissions. Honda has no effective solution for the problem. I would think that a recurring problem that poses a risk of the srs not deploying would be an unacceptable risk that would require mitigation. In every case, the srs light has come back on within a few days of service. I can't bring the vehicle back in on a weekly basis for an srs reset, so I have driven the vehicle extensively with no confidence that the srs system would deploy in an accident. If this is common enough to require a service bulletin, it may be only a matter of time before someone is injured or killed due to this defect.
