10 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2020 Honda Civic

Failure Date: 06/01/2020

Our passenger seat airbag does not work when I sit in the seat. Our Honda dealer has said there computer does not see a problem we determined that I may not meet the weight allowance as I weigh about 88-90 lbs. We have complained to the american Honda motor company and were told they would get back to us but that was nearly a month ago. . All other people who have sat in the passenger seat did not experience this problem and we have not received clear information as to what the weight allowance is for this car. When I sit in the seat, the airbag light stays on. I am extremely concerned about Honda's apparent indifference as well as the lack of safety I feel when sitting in that seat. Please let me kn ow if you can follow up on this concern for me. Thank you.

22 Air Bag Light On problem of the 2009 Honda Civic

Failure Date: 05/14/2019

2009 Honda Civic never in an accident. In Feb 2019 he airbag light came on. Front airbags were previously replaced under takita recall. I was told the passenger seat side airbag had to be replaced for "a part that just fails over time" and was not part of the recall. I paid $1100 to have it replaced. Two months later and the airbag light is on again and I fear it is now the driver side curtain airbag that has failed and I will have to put another $1100 into a car for failure of a safety part. The car has 112,000 miles and I just paid an additional $1400 for rear breaks, shocks, etc. , which I consider routine maintenance. I could have put $3600 down on a new car. Now I am already into this car for $2500 and fixing the airbag is non-negotiable. It needs to be done. I would be curious to know how many other people are having side airbag issues with Honda vehicles. Also, the paint is peeling off the vehicle! started peeling 6 months after the warranty was up so Honda not responsible.

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.

Failure Date: 06/23/2018

I went in to have the recall repaired done for airbags. Days later my airbag light came on I notified Honda and was told I had to pay for an inspection. The light comes and goes. I have never had an issue prior to them supposedly fixing a recall now my airbag will not stay off. They claim it has nothing to do with the recall repair but I find that hard to believe. This was never an issue before they fooled with my car. This is a major safety concern I have two small children and I can't allow something to happen to them driving in an unsafe vehicle.
