    The dash airbag inop red light went on and off then it just remained on. On occasion it would go on and off. The dealer diagnosed the left curtain airbag sensor was defective. I have the extended mechanical insurance and filed a claim. I returned to the dealer for repairs and it was a loose wire and some kind of clip installed to fix problem on 9-16-10. *tr

    Beginning in april of 2010 my srs indicator, airbag light, would come on and off while driving randomly. I brought it to the dealership and they stated the diagnostic that came up was for a faulty side airbag. It will cost me $1150 to fix, for which i do not have, and they stated faulty airbags were not covered under warranty. I have not fixed it and am going to try to have to warranty cover this. My car is a 2006…

    I was driving down a country road at about 55 miles per hour when my driver's side airbag went off without provocation. It sounded like a shotgun had gone off beside my left ear. I was stunned and my ear felt like it was full of cotton. There were no cars in sight at the time and no curbs. I pulled off the road after realizing what had happened. The car was full of dust and my seatbelt was so tight that i felt like…

The initial inspection from the dealership, where purchased ,(honda of lise) or the eventual repair shop who was recommended by hartford insurance could find no reason for the deployment. The only comment from honda of america was that it was not a "defect", no cause was given by any honda associate at any time. The repair shop…

    My son got out of a friends car and slammed the door and the side air bags deployed. It's a 2 door 2006 honda civic. Honda says there is nothing wrong with the car and it does not fall under warranty. The air bags and headliner are having to be replaced ,but i feel this is a real safety issue.
