Note: Vehicles that have had their driver frontal air bag replaced previously as part of a recall remedy prior to September 12, 2014 need to have their air bag replaced under this recall as well. Vehicles that, on or after September 12, 2014, received a remedy for a prior driver frontal air bag inflator recall already received an inflator of a different design, and therefore are not included in this recall and do not require additional servicing.

From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 Blomquist Report at …

This RQ investigation was opened to collect and analyze additional information to better evaluate the scope and timeliness of Honda's two safety recalls addressing rupturing of the driver's side air bag inflators (08V-593 and 09V-259).In an earlier response to RMD's request for information, Honda indicated that the second recall (09V-259), essentially an expansion of the first (08V-593), was necessary since later information informed that the source of the defect was different than originally postulated, and so the scope of the vehicles affected changed. Honda indicated that it had relied on …

-The front subframe on the passenger side completely rusted through and broke. The driver side is perfectly fine and still has factory paint on it, but the passenger side is completely rusted out. Yes the vehicle and issue are available for inspection. -The front subframe is the frame component that holds and supports your front suspension, steering, engine and transmission. With the failure of the subframe the front passenger side of the car dropped down and the steering and suspension were compromised. Very unsafe for the driver and passengers to lose control of the vehicle. Loss of control is also very dangerous for others on the road. -The problem is very prominent for this year and model of car. It is an engineering flaw from the factory for years 1998-2002. The air conditioning evaporator drain hose is routed right onto the passenger side sub frame. The moisture from the drain is what accelerates the rust. The car only has 55,000 miles on it and it has failed this soon. -The car has been inspected by a shop previously and the shop welded a new support piece to “patch” the frame to make back home. -There were no symptoms, there was just a loud clunk on the front end and it dropped down.

I am writing to express my concern regarding a significant safety issue with my 2002 Honda Accord's subframe. The subframe is rusting severely in the area where the air conditioning drain line drips directly onto it. This design flaw has caused concentrated corrosion over time, significantly weakening the subframe and making the vehicle unsafe to drive. As the subframe supports essential components such as the engine, transmission, and suspension, its deterioration poses a serious risk of structural failure. This could lead to loss of control while driving, endangering both the driver and others on the road. Considering the critical nature of this defect, I urge Honda to take responsibility for addressing this issue and provide a resolution to ensure the safety and reliability of affected vehicles.

SRS bag light has been on for unknown reason(s). Steering is not good and it got checked they said they fixed issue on it but it does not feel fixed

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the driver's side air bag warning light remained illuminated. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 354,000.

The right side of the main front subframe of the car broke. The subframe on the right side was completely rusted out and corroded away. However, the left side of the subframe was perfectly intact with no damage and only minor surface rust. The car has only 50,000 miles on it. When the subframe broke my friends [XXX]aunt [XXX] old) was driving and the right side of the car dropped down and the steering was compromised. The broken subframe resulted in a loss of control of the car but an accident was avoided thankfully due to her only driving at low speeds. They took the car to an independent mechanic, who welded some support brackets to the subframe to get the car to move. After doing some research, I found multiple forums, websites, videos, and repair TSBs about this issue. The failure occurred because of an engineering failure of the placement of the HVAC evaporator drain hose. The hose drips the draining moisture right onto the right side of the subframe. Over time, this trapped moisture leads to corrosion and rust formation on the subframe. The corrosive effect weakens the structural integrity of the subframe, which caused the subframe to break under normal driving conditions. A mechanic has inspected and patch repaired the subframe. I am willing to have the car inspected if requested. There were no symptoms before the failure, it happened all of the sudden.

I complained to Joe Morgan Honda that my driver's seat broke from the frame causing it to be a rocking chair and Joe Morgan Honda confirmed that the car needs an entirely new seat because the frame had snapped. Joe Morgan Honda said they don't make the seat anymore and it was important that I not get a seat from a vehicle that had been wrecked, because so no seat in a scrapped vehicle could be found. I complained to the better business bureau to the Honda Corporation at 1919 Torrance, CA and the Better Business Bureau said they refused to answer the safety complaint Silicon Valley Complaint #[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Car exploded spontaneously. Fire department thinks it started in the steering wheel/ignition area. Vehicle is still parked on the street and is available for inspection. No one was in or around the vehicle, but it seems if someone had been in the car they would certainly have been incinerated. Anyone in the street would have been struck by shrapnel. Only the fire department has seen the vehicle so far, to put the fire out. This happened last night (1/31/24) about 8:30 pm central time. This happened with no warning, car was parked and turned off - had just been driven 2 hours prior.

On Sept. 28, 2023 I was driving this car and it was on a very rough highway and it went into a skid and flipped over and was totaled. It was towed to Willow Creek, CA for one week. I was badly injured and had no way to get to Willow Creek, CA so I had to pay $500 for it to be stored and they eventually got the title of the car from me and allegedly disposed of the 2002 Accord. I did not see it after the accident as I was bedridden and unable to travel to see the condition of my car. The passenger's side of the back seat was GONE and you could see the ground, I do remember that much despite my severe injuries to my head and body. I was the driver and the driver's side airbags failed to deploy despite the numerous time I took it in to Mid-City Motor World in Eureka, CA responding to numerous airbag recalls. I was told prior airbag recalls had not worked and that is why I had to keep going back to have them done over and over again. I am the original owner of this car and I got hurt badly in this accident. It has been over two months now and I have yet to fully recover. I often wonder if I ever will fully recover as I still have pain in my back, arms, legs and head. If the airbags had worked, I would not have ended up bedridden with a head injury and unable to move. I had no help at all after the accident. Shame on you Honda for failing to assist a person that was injured because of one of the cars you made that has a history of recalls as noted at this federal government link:

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while parking the vehicle, the vehicle independently accelerated without warning. The contact stated that the vehicle went over a concrete island with the engine revving and the vehicle accelerating. The contact turned the vehicle to the right and grazed a pole which stopped the vehicle. The contact sustained a knot under her right clavicle but did not seek medical attention. A Police report was filed. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 180,000.

The ignition system of the vehicle is faulty. The engine keeps stalling intermittently and the vehicle shuts down. The issue has been observed at both low and high speeds. The issue occurs on average once in two weeks. This issue has put our family's safety in jeopardy. We filed a complaint with Honda but they are not willing to help with addressing this issue. This issue has been a problem for several years with no restitution from Honda. We need to be compensated USD 2.5million for the stress and aggravation this issue has caused us and for putting our family's safety in jeopardy. Please help us by arranging for mediation services with Honda Motor Company of America. Thank you.

This morning, my neighbor came over to see if I heard my car alarm go off. I saw that part of the driver side where the door buttons are located were some what damaged. They must have been trying to open other doors, trunk or something else. I'm not sure how they were able to open the driver side door, maybe a crow bar what whatever else they use. I did not hear my car alarm go off. I checked my car for anything stolen, but didn't seem to find any thing missing. Will check it again. On another note, there was a night about a month ago where my neighbor heard gun shots outside my back door under the plum tree. Same side of location where my car is parked. Perhaps its the same people. This neighborhood is becoming dangerous. Thank YOU! [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I was in a car accident I was driving and my airbag was defected

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at 70 MPH, the contact crashed into a guard rail, and then the median's metal barrier. None of the air bags deployed upon impact. The contact sustained a bulging disc in her neck, and her husband, who was the passenger, had a broken neck. The contact and her husband later received medical treatment at the hospital. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard and later taken to the contact's residence, where it remained. The insurance company did not deem the vehicle totaled. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. Prior to the collision, the vehicle had previously been serviced for the driver's and passenger's side air bags. The failure mileage was 258,673.

The back door handles has malfunction. They or unable to open from inside or out. This causes a health hazard to the passengers in the backseat if there was an emergency to get out the back doors because of an accident.

AFTER READING THE DESCRIPTION FOR 2002-06 HONDA CR-V POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH (PWMS) RECALL (NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 20V-768 ISSUED ON 12/10/2020), I REALIZED THAT MY 2002 HONDA ACCORD PWMS HAS SIMILAR SYMPTOM OF WARM FEELING AND STOPPED TO ROLL DOWN/UP WINDOWS. UPON GOOGLING, THERE ARE NUMEROUS PWMS REPLACEMENT DIY VIDEOS WITH SIMILAR FAILURES ON YOUTUBE. DURING THOSE YEARS OF PRODUCTION, THE PWMS FOR CRV AND ACCORD LOOKS SIMILAR. PARTICULARLY, DRIVER'S SIDE PWMS ON MY 2002 ACCORD HAS THE IDENTICAL SYMPTOM AS THE 2002-06 CRV HAS, HEREBY, EXPOSING TO THE SAME SAFETY DANGER OF FIRE RISK. I AM FILING THE COMPLAINT TO REQUEST HONDA TO ISSUE SAFETY RECALL DRIVER'S SIDE PWMS ON 2002 ACCORD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY THERE WAS A LOUD BANG NOISE THAT CAME FROM THE FRONT-END OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SMOKE FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE WATER HOSE HAD FRACTURED IN HALF AND ANTI-FREEZE HAD SPLATTERED EVERYWHERE. THE CONTACT HAD THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND NO MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NEEDED. THE FIRE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DEALER (NORM REEVES HONDA SUPERSTORE CERRITOS 18500 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703; (562) 345-9100) INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE WATER HOSE AND THE WATER PUMP FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED BECAUSE IT DID NOT HAVE AN OFFICIAL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE 304,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FRONT SUBFRAME WAS SEVERELY RUSTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JIM WHITE HONDA (1505 S. REYNOLDS RD, MAUMEE, OH 43537, (419) 893-5581) TO BE INSPECTED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE SALVAGED.

AS THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT, THE RPMS SUDDENLY ROSE TO 5-7K ! THE DRIVER COULD NOT CONTROL OR STOP IT FROM LURCHING FORWARD INTO TRAFFIC, SO SHE CUT OFF THE ENGINE. UPON TRYING TO RESTART, THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START AT NORMAL RPM. A BYSTANDER CAME OVER AND ADJUSTED SOMETHING IN THE ENGINE AND IT WORKED AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES SINCE THEN. NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, BUT AFTER A WEB SEARCH, THIS IS NOT RARE FOR 2002 MODEL. UNACCEPTABLE! THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED AS IT THE CAR IS PUT INTO PARK, AND THE RPMS RISE QUICKLY TO HIGH LEVELS. IT STOPS WHEN THE CAR IS OFF, OBVIOUSLY, AND USUALLY DOES NOT RECUR ON THE SAME DAY. IT'S BEEN HAPPENING ABOUT 1 TIME PER MONTH SINCE WE BOUGHT IT USED FOR OUR TEENAGER TO USE. I'M NOW AFRAID TO LET HER DRIVE IT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE! THIS COULD HAVE KILLED THE DRIVER, MY DAUGHTER, AS WELL AS OTHERS IN HER PATH.

THE RADIO CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE CAR RADIO THE WAS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY INSTALLED RADIO WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM ALBANY GA HONDA. I DID NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES OR ANY UPGRADES TO THE RADIO. AFTER I DOUSED THE RADIO WITH A SODA, THE SPEAKERS WERE EMITTING A RADIO STATIC SOUND AND I COULD HEAR THE BEEPING SOUND OF PEOPLE UNLOCKING THEIR CAR DOORS WITH THEIR DEVICES. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE ENGINE WAS OFF. *TR

I WAS ABLE TO REMOVE MY KEYS FROM THE VEHICLE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN PARK. OTHER HONDA ACCORDS ARE OF THE SAME YEAR HAVE BEEN RECALLED, EXCEPT FOR MINE. NHTSA CAMPAIGN #05V025000 FOR THE OTHER ACCORDS THAT HAVE BEEN RECALLED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER IN EITHER DIRECTION. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE POWER STEERING FLUID WAS LEAKING UNTO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER STEERING HOSE AND PUMP WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING A GRINDING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AND THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE MECHANIC INDICATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION TORQUE CONVERTER WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE TRANSMISSION NEED TO BE REBUILT OR REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHERE A LATTER FLEW OUT OF THE BACK OF A GUYS TRUCK AND BECAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND I HIT HIM WHEN I COULDN'T STOP FAST ENOUGH AND NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS BERRYBRUISED UP AND I DID GO TO THE HOSTPITAL.

UPON INSPECTION OF THIS VEHICLE, PART OF THE FRONT SUBFRAME HAD RUSTED THROUGH, FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSER HOSE EMPTYING ON TOP OF IT. ATTACHED PHOTOS SHOW THE EXTENT OF VISIBLE DAMAGE; OTHER DAMAGE WITHIN THIS STRUCTURE IS NOT VISIBLE TO THE EYE. HONDA REFERS TO THIS PART AS THE "REAR BEAM," PART NUMBER 50200-S87-A00. THE STEERING RACK AND FRONT SUSPENSION COMPONENTS ATTACH TO THIS PART, ALONG WITH THE REAR ENGINE MOUNT, AND CAN CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, AND SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY. THIS IS A VERY COMMON AND VERY DANGEROUS FLAW IN THIS GENERATION OF ACCORD.

BOTH BACK SEAT PASSENGER DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED ONE STOPPED OPENING ABOUT A MONTH BEFORE THE OTHER IT'S AS THOUGH THE CHILD SAFETY LOCK IS ON BUT ISN'T. THEY CAN'T BE OPENED FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY MATTER OF GREAT IMPORTANCE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH MY PASSENGERS WON'T BE ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE.

I WAS IN A BAD CAR ACCIDENT WAS ON SATURDAY, 11/02/2019, WHERE BOTH CARS WERE TOTALED. I WAS A STOPLIGHT ON A CITY STREET (GLENWOOD DR) WAITING TO TURN LEFT. AS I PROCEED TO TURN LEFT ON A GREEN ARROW (GOING APPROX 5 MILE/HR) I WAS HIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY A VEHICLE TRAVELING (PER THE OTHER DRIVER'S STATEMENT) APPROXIMATELY 37-40 MILE/HR AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. A LARGE PART OF THE IMPACT WAS ABSORBED BY THE LEFT FRONT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THEN TRAVEL TO THE PASSENGER DOOR. MY AIRBAGS HAD BEEN RECALLED THIS SUMMER AN TAKEN TO HONDA OF CONYERS WHERE THEY WERE REPLACED. UNFORTUNATELY, NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON IMPACT. I WAS THE DRIVER AND MY 14-YEAR OLD NIECE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. MY NIECE DIDN'T SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES; HOWEVER, I HAVE SOME SPINAL INJURY AND WAS SEEN BY THE EMORY ORTHOPEDIC AND SPINE CENTER WHERE THEY THEN ASSIGNED A TREATMENT PROGRAM WHERE I AM TO RECEIVE PHYSICAL THERAPY 2 X PER WEEK FOR 4 WEEKS ( THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE, MANUAL THERAPY, STRETCHING, PARASPINAL STRENGTHENING, MODALITIES PRN, AND C-TRACTION.) I'VE ATTACHED 3 PHOTOS OF MY VEHICLE.

SRS WARNING LIGHT IS ON , INDICATING THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES WITH THE TAKATA BAGS I DECIDE TO INVESTIGATE.

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CURRY HONDA OF GEORGIA IN ATLANTA ON 7/8/2019. THE RECALL WAS SATISFIED AND NOT REPORTED

2002 HONDA ACCORD V6. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO AIRBAG FAILING TO DEPLOY AFTER ACCIDENT. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS A CRASH INVOLVING A DEER. THE CONSUMER QUESTIONED IF THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. *JS

FEW YEARS AGO I HAD PROBLEMS WITH SEAT BELT CODES POPPING UP. TOOK CAR TO ONE OF THE DEALERS (DO NOT REMEMBER WHICH ONE..LOST MY RECEIPT/PAPER WORK) AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. AFTER THAT "FIX" THE REMINDER LIGHT AND ALARM FOR SEAT BELTS DIDN'T LIGHT UP AT ALL (ON A DASH BOARD), ASKED TECHNICIANS ABOUT IT AT THAT TIME AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE LIGHT/ALARM NEEDS TO BE CHANGING AND THAT IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. IT HAD BEEN FEW YEARS SINCE AND WHENEVER I DRIVE THE CAR I AM UNEASY ABOUT IT: IT SOMEHOW DISTURBS ME WHENEVER I TURN THE CAR ON OR DRIVE IT. BELT (DRIVER'S SIDE) SOMETIMES DOESN'T GET TIGHT(ER?)EN AT ALL WHEN I BRAKE. I READ THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND USUALLY HONDA MAKER REQUIRES TO FIX IT AND IT IS AT NO CHARGE. THIS YEAR I TALKED TO ONE OF THE BALLISE HONDA (WEST SPRINGFIELD) DEALERSHIPS' TECHNICIAN (INFORMATION/CONVERSATION WAS NOT ENTERED IN THE COMPUTER) AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT A BIG A DEAL (THE LIGHT/ALARM SOUND IS NOT ON WHEN BELTS ARE NOT ENGAGED) AND IF I WANT TO FIX IT I WOLD HAVE TO PAY. I TOLD HIM WHEN THEY WENT OFF : AFTER THE PROBLEM I HAD FEW YEARS THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. SO..I AM CURIOUS IS IT A SAFETY ISSUE COVERED BY HONDA OR IS IT JUST IN MY HEAD SOMETHING THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT AS PER TECHNICIAN. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE DATE WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY (I THINK) JUST TURN THAT SIGNAL/ALARM OFF ...BECAUSE BEFORE I TOOK MY CAR TO THEM ALL WAS ON AND WORKING PROPERLY EXCEPT FOR THE LIGHTS POINTING TO

FOR THE STEERING, THE POWER STEERING PUMP DOESN'T HOLD POWER STEERING FLUID AND WHEN YOU GO AROUND A CURVE AND THERE IS A BUMP IN THE ROAD, YOUR STEERING WHEEL JERKS THE OTHER WAY. IT'S WAY WORSE WITH NO POWER STEERING BUT IT IS STILL THERE EVEN IF YOU HAVE FLUID. THE TRANSMISSION WILL JUMP IN BETWEEN FIRST AND SECOND GEAR SO ROUGHLY IT FEELS LIKE YOUR TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FALL OUT, SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T GO BECAUSE OF IT AND IT'S ALMOST CAUSED SOME ACCIDENTS. YOU CAN'T GET UP TO THE SPEED YOU NEED TO WITH IT BEING SO ROUGH AND JUMPY. THEN THERE IS A TICKING NOISE WHEN I PRESS ON THE GAS PEDDLE, FROM THE TIMING BELT AND TRANSISTOR. SOME OF THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I GOT THE CAR, LIKE THE SHIFTING AND THE STEERING. THE TICKING HAS BEEN THERE BUT NOT AS BADLY AS IT IS NOW. I ALSO KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY HONDA DRIVER WITH THESE ISSUES FROM THIS MAKE AND MODEL AND ERA FOR THIS CAR.

TAKATA RECALL- I HAD THE 1ST RECALL REPAIRED ON MY HONDA A FEW YEARS AGO BUT IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS THE SRS LIGHT AND SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT WERE BOTH ON AND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS PARTIALLY INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. I TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THESE LIGHTS ARE ON DUE TO A FAULTY SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THE LIGHTS TO GO OFF....FOR NOW, BUT THAT THE LIGHTS WOULD PROBABLY COME BACK ON AFTER DRIVING IT A WHILE. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER, THE SRS LIGHT AND SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ARE BACK ON AGAIN.

TAKATA RECALL- I PURCHASED A USED 2002 HONDA ACCORD TODAY, 7/31/2019. WHEN I ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND STARTED THE CAR, I NOTICED THE SRS LIGHT ON THE DASH WAS ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LOOKS TO BE PARTIALLY INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. THE AIRBAG IS NOT DEPLOYED BUT IT DOES SEEM LIKE OVER TIME IT HAS INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. CURRENTLY THERE ARE 6 RECALLS RELATED TO AIRBAG MODULES IN THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF MY VEHICLE, YET FOR SOME REASON THIS WEBSITE SAYS MY VIN# IS NOT INCLUDED. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS AIRBAG ISSUE ON MY VEHICLE, IF I WERE TO EVER WRECK, I WOULDN'T WANT ANYONE TO GET HURT BECAUSE OF A FAULTY RECALLED AIRBAG MODULE THAT WAS JUST SKIPPED OVER.
