The passanger air bag light keeps coming on. Never had this problem until this year.
The vsa stay on and my power steer turn on and off sometimes it's hard to turn I hard to pull over the freeway to shut the car off and then on in order to retain my power steering, my traction control doesn't work wich am guessing it's related with the vsa and my airbag light turns on my dash then turns off am a little terrified I might loose complete control off my car and my airbag will go off or not even pop off incase of an accident or I might cause an accident if I keep loosening my power steering (electronical power steering).
Once a month roughly while I'm driving my airbag light comes on the dash and reads "check airbag" I know this is wrong because nothing is wrong. If I pull over and shut my car off wait 30 secs then turn it back on the error message will turn off.
Check air bag light comes on randomly. Sometimes when go over speed bump, sometimes just driving on smooth road, or making a turn. No real pattern discovered yet. Started sometime ago but came on maybe once every 3-4 months. Now however it is occurring much more frequently almost daily. It has been rather hot and humid since occurrences started being more frequent not sure if that is coincidence or part of reason for the increase. Once car is turned off the light is gone till the next random occurrence. It has not turned on without the vehicle moving at this point.
Also wasn't able to select the steering, the speed control brakes and the wheels/tires. The car has completely shut off while driving going 60 on the highway. Since I've got this car it's been a huge pain and has been in the shop nearly the entire time I've had it. I'm currently making monthly payments on it and have had the car since 2017 and have put over $9,000 worth of work into it. . It finally has stopped working again I've been without a car for over a year because I can't continue to dump money into it. The abs light and check engine have been on since I've got it and the tire pressure light has always been on since I've got it the airbag light blinks while driving randomly and the electrical has went out while driving as well all the lights and radio would completely go out while driving during the day this happened thank god because had it happened at night I wouldn't of been able to see the road. The car has had the battery replaced many times and the tires constantly loose threading and feels like the car steering is shaking while driving. The child safety restraint lights blink as well randomly as well with the airbag lights. My sterling wheel has completely locked up while driving unable to move it at all. This car has cost me loads of money and put me in such a bad place financially I wish I never got it.
Takata recall. The check airbag light is on. When I entered my VIN number, it says my vehicle is not part of the recall. However, my check airbag light is on which makes me think there is a defect.
Flashing air bag light with no known issue(s).
I have a 2013 Honda Civic. I bought is a certified pre-owned from broadway Honda, greenville, SC. It went well for a year thought the one year warranty with zero problems. But once the warranty was over problems started to show up every other month. During the harsh winter of March one day the battery went dead at a walmart parking. I called my friend and jump started it and it was fine. Next day I went to the Honda service and did a diagnostic. They said the battery is only 30%. In 4 years with 53k miles the battery went bad and I replaced it. And did a oil change and nys inspection. 15 days went well. Suddenly one day my air bag indicator started to blink with a message "check air bag system" on the screen. I took it to a friend's garage and he suspected it was a passenger side seat sensor that has an error. Very troubled I went to Honda service again. They charged $130 just for scanning and diagnostics. They came back said the passenger seat airbag sensor went bad. I asked them how can something like a sensor go bad. Believe me I only use my car to go to office and errands. My wife sits at the back with my baby(infant). Very rarely the seat is used. I asked them how much would it cost and they said it will cost another $880 dollars to replace the sensor. I also want Honda to know the problem as one can't pay so much to replace one sensor.
