During oct 2013 I began to see the airbag warning light come on sporadically. Asked the Honda dealer to investigate and they said there was no problem because it is not on all the time. I went to another mechanic that I use and they ran a diagnostic and said it was defective and needed to be replaced. I paid $2289. 17 to replace the passenger side airbag and harness. I want Honda to verify the current airbags are not subject to the recall, I want Honda to verify the replacement airbag is not subject to the recall and I want to be reimbursed for my airbag replacement due to a defective airbag that Honda ignored when I raised the issue at their repair facility in tarrytown new york. I have also written to the customer service department of american Honda motor CO, inc in torrance, CA. And am awaiting their response.

The srs (supplemental restraint system) warning light came on my dashboard. This is a known design/quality defect. Honda provided extended warranty coverage for this item for 150,000 miles/10 years. I took the car in for service on 7/16/2013, 3 months and 5 days beyond 10 years. Given the mileage of the vehicle and the fact that the car was just beyond warranty, I expected that it would be fixed as a warranty item. Instead I was billed $65. 14 for reading a code from the diagnostic log. This was a required check by Honda because it could have been a seat belt sensor issue which would have been covered for no charge. Since this error code (15-3 ods unit failure) appears typically after several sensor errors, it is probable that the errors were occurring even during the extended warranty period. I also asked for a complete listing of the diagnostic codes since I paid for it, but I was refused and told it wasn't available. The dealership, frontier Honda of longmont, colorado and Honda corporation were unwilling to perform any service without me paying for it. The estimate for the additional work was $403. 40 plus tax. I was the hardware product manager for several worldwide printer products of a fortune 100 corporation. I find it inconceivable that Honda would sacrifice their reputation, customer good will, and potential future liability exposure over this item. I would strongly encourage a mandatory recall of all affected vehicles given the approach Honda is taking.
