This vehicle which never has had a problem was taken in for the air bag recall to the Honda dealer. The vehicle had ~170k miles. Within weeks of the event the air bag sensor warning light came on. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer for investigation and repair. The dealer advises that both front bumper air bag sensors simultaneously went bad and needed to be replaced. They said this was not in anyway associated with the recall work. I don't buy it and see that many others have experienced the same identical challenge shortly after recall work was performed. I am certain a authorized replacement part incompatibility exists or a prescribed replacement procedure technique is flawed. This is similar to 10cfr part 21 safety related issue in us commercial nuclear power regulations that I work in and must be acted upon by the ntsb. The airbag safety system was returned non-functional because of my refusal to pay the dealer nearly $500 for repairs I know the process is absolutely accountable for inducing. The replacement is not a like-for-like compatible unit or the dealers are not installing the replacements correctly putting the vehicle occupants at sudden safety risk while the vehicle is in motion at 70 mph.

The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 79,371.
Airbag warning light on. Dealer determined left front impact sensor was issue. $640 repair for sensor that should not ever fail for safety reasons. Appears issue is not an isolated instance and should be covered by dealer or recall issued to enforce the issue. What recourse do I have available to recover cost?.
The contact owns a 2005 Honda Pilot. While driving at 2 mph, the air bag warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the air bag sensor needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 115,000. The VIN was unavailable.
The front right airbag sensor required replacement. Last month, my mechanic reset it. He said he'd look further if it the airbag warning light went on again. It did. But I took it to the Honda service center. I felt this was too important an issue. I was told that it was a defective front right sensor and it needed replacement. Cost to me was $300. I feel that this is a safety feature that should be reliable and not require replacement. The car not new, but well maintained and garaged. We are the original owners. Incidently, Honda service reps said they could not tell me if I had a takata srs system, but that it definitely was not recalled. I'm fairly certain it is the same system from news reports, and think it should be replaced - but that's a separate issue.
Airbag warning light went on and stayed on. I am original owner and the car has never been in a crash,nor have airbags ever deployed. Brought into the dealer and, after $115 diagnostic test, was told right front sensor behind bumper "went bad". Charge to replace 1 sensor is over $400, although dealer will waive diagnostic test fee. After seeing many people with similar problem, seems Honda should issue recall.

Srs warning light will not go out. Cannot afford diagnostics test or new sensors. Should be recalled for safety. Many other Honda Pilot owners have same problem. Thanks.
No accident and air bag light for passenger was on and off intermittently and then most recently the air bag warning light is permanently on the dashboard. From reading the complaints, it appears that the sensor/ wiring is faulty and I'm going to be stuck with another planned obsolescence bill and my safety is in jeopardy until I am able to pay Honda for their part and labor. Now that's an offer one can't refuse.
Air bag warning light illuminated when car was started. Brought it to the dealership and they told me both front impact sensors were no longer functioning.
Srs warning light goes on and stays on for days, then goes off and seems ok for a while. Sometimes it comes on briefly and goes off. Lately it has come on again and has not gone off for a couple of weeks straight. There has been no accident or airbag deployment in this vehicle.
