Takata recall: I bought a used 2002 odessey with 200,000 miles on it. And after I got it home I noticed the srs light being on. I thought it is a simple loose connection. But after searching online, it seems to be a serious problem which needs urgent attention and fixing.
Took car in for recall. On pickup of car noticed srs light illuminated. Dealer will not fix light unless I pay money. But light came on after "fixing" airbag recall.
Problem: srs light has been on since 11/07/10. At initial visit to Honda dealer on 11/11/10, problem diagnosed as faulty seat belt buckle. Honda stated part on back order until 11/24/10. Now Honda says part on back order until approximately 12/09/10. With srs light on it is questionable as to whether air bags will deploy in a crash.
The consumer believes the positioning of the seat belt in the middle seat of the back row, which comes down from the ceiling to buckle into the seat, is unsafe and uncomfortable. The seat belt comes down, across on the torso and usually across the neck.
