1 Air Bag Not Deploy problem

Failure Date: 06/25/2020

My 2013 Honda Civic consistently has the "check air bag system" indicator comes on 75% to 80% of the time when I begin to drive it. It's unknown why this occurs? it occurs while driving in the city or on the highways. Makes no difference. I've read many complaints about this on the internet from fellow Civic owners. This occurs only on the model year 2013. My concern is if I would be in an accident, I've been told if the warning light is on, the air bag system will not deploy and possibly could cause serious bodily injuries. This is not acceptable to have such a quality automobile company like Honda not to investigate and have this fixed. My car looks and drives like brand new with only 30k miles on it. I've check my VIN number for recalls but there are none. I went to a dealership and they said they could run a diagnostic check for $139. 00 but said that wouldn't guarantee a fix solution. And internet owners have paid for this to no avail for a fix solution. Then more diagnostic checks would be required and who knows at what expense? I'm asking to please look in to this situation for myself and my families well being and safety. Thank you for your time.
