I have made repeated calls to Honda America at 1 800 999 1009 I cannot get an answer from anyone as to whether or not this car has a takatta airbag which is a potentially a small bomb mounted in front of the passenger and or driver. I've called two Honda dealers in the seattle wa area and they will not directly answer the question, all they will say is there is no recall for this vehicle at this time!!! given the state of ethic s and honesty in this country today I am somehow a bit distrustful of corporate japan, corporate America. . . . To say nothing of general motors and the problem of ignition switches purposely buried for years. . . Executives should be jailed.
Dashboard seatbelt restraint light came on 9 months into ownership of a used 2004 Honda Civic sedan - took in for state inspection but will not pass state inspection without repair. I was informed it is the driver seatbelt switch that needs repair, cost $260.
Srs airbag light indicator went on suddenly on ignition and never turned off. Brought to dealership who said the srs fuse box needed to be replaced as it wasn't under warranty anymore. Other Civic's also have multiple complaints of this. Front passenger window also moves up real slow almost to a halt sometimes using both driver and passenger power window switches. Haven't taken this in as already past the warranty too. Electrical stuff seems to be going kaputz after the warranty ended.
