3 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 01/08/2018

My Honda Civic had an air bag recall, which I took the car in for. About 2 months after the fix, my air bag light came on. I had it checked out at another shop and they reset my light. It come back on approximately every month. It seems to me that it is suspicious that I never had any such problem until the Honda dealer replaced the air bag. They refuse to address the problem and insist it is not there responsibility. Coincidence I don't think so. I would like to know if this is an ongoing issued with other Honda owners who have undergone this procedure.

9 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 10/20/2016

I took our Honda into the Honda dealer for an airbag recall. They changed the airbag on oct 20 2016. After a few days the airbag light came on. They did a scan and now they say the seat belt on the driver side needs to be replaced. About $700. 00. I am seeing thru google searches that this seems to be an ongoing problem after the airbag is replaced. As this is a safety issue and seems to be an ongoing Honda problem I am thinking they should rectify problem or install original airbag back to fix. As this was a car only driven 5 to 6 months a year and then stored for the rest now that we want to sell we need to get fixed.

Good morning, we took our Honda Civic in for an airbag recall recently. Last weekend the air bag light came on and we return to the dealer. They said they couldn't check it out unless we paid an initial $150. 00 service fee and that it was probably the seat belt that broke and not the air bag but that its not covered since we now have gone over the 80,000 mile limit on their liability.

Takata recall. I have recieved mutiple letters concerning my air bag recall have had the care up there and have been told it's fixed, and I still get letters that it hasn't been fixed. Also the passenger air bag light has stayed on multiple times and they said they fixed but yet when I would go no more than 2 miles down the road it would come back on also the dealership I took it to did a multi point inspection and said my parking break was fine but little did they know my parking break doesn't work so how did it operate fine if I know good and well it doesn't.

25 Air Bag Light On problem

Failure Date: 03/06/2006

My side air bag light has been alternating between going off and on and staying on for long periods of time. I took it in to the dealer as it is still under warranty and initially they could not locate a problem. Finally, after my insistence, they pursued it a bit further(the computer read-outs showed no problems) and discovered there is some problem with a sensor located in a seat so all air bags are disabled until the part arrives. I am not happy about riding in our only vehicle until they get the part to fix the problem.

While driving accelerator pedal became stuck, and vehicle smashed into a fence after placing it park. The air bag struck consumer in the face. As the consumer looked down at the instrument panel, all of the dials were at zero. (no gas, no speed, no hot/cold indicator) the consumer parked the vehicle, restarted it and everything was back to normal. The consumer said that she was making a left hand turn, then all of a sudden, she was on a sidewalk, pulled into the road and was across in the next intersection heading for the drainage basin. The consumer was unable to stop the vehicle.
