The contact owns a 2005 Honda Accord. The contact stated while entering a parking lot the vehicle accelerated on its own. The contact stated he noticed several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact desperately pressed on the brake pedal, but the vehicle continued to accelerate. The front driver-side air bag deployed without any warning obstructive the contact's view and causing him to crash into a building and causing the other air bags in the vehicle to deploy. The contact's daughter stuffed minor injuries but did not seek medical attention. The front end of the vehicle was damaged. The vehicle was not towed, but the contact was able to drive the vehicle home. A police report was not filed. The dealer was contacted but the dealer stated that there were no open recalls under the VIN. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 315,986.

Air bag indicator light is always on. Went to the Honda dealer (Auto NAtion Honda, Tucson) and was informed that there is a recall but the part was not available. So come back after the part. Came back today, and there was a new person, and was informed it wont be covered under the warranty, and needs to replace the driver's side seat belt wire harness and had to pay $235. There is a Safety Recall: Driver's Seat Position Sensor Harness Replacement service bulletin 07-002 for this wire harness but was informed does not cover my vehicle. I think this is the same issue, but why does not cover my vehicle? This is clearly Honda's fault.

WE BROUGHT THIS IN TO BOTH VERN EIDE HONDA, SIOUX FALLS, SD AND BROOKDALE HONDA, BROOKLYN PARK, MN. IT HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THE CURRENT AIRBAG. SOMEHOW THIS INVESTIGATION BY BOTH DEALERSHIPS HAS NOT BEEN RECORDED IN THE SYSTEM. OUR UNDERSTANDING FROM BROOKDALE HONDA IS THAT PHOTOS OF THE INSTALLED AIRBAG WERE SENT TO HONDA CORPORATE AND NOTHING NEEDED TO BE DONE FURTHER. WE CONTINUE TO RECEIVE NOTIFICATIONS GOING SO FAR AS TO RECEIVE THEM FROM THE DVS. PLEASE ASSIST. THE NUMBER AND FREQUENCY OF NOTIFICATION IS BECOMING ANNOYING SINCE THE CARE HAS BEEN IN TWICE TO HONDA FOR RECTIFICATION OF THE AIRBAG.

"TAKATA RECALL".....I PURCHASED THIS CAR 2 YEARS AGO AND THE SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIT. I JUST HAD MY OIL CHANGED TODAY AND THE REPAIR SHOP ADVISED ME THAT THERE WAS AN ERROR CODE WHICH MEANS DEFECTIVE AIR BAG. ALSO THE DRIVER SEAT BELT BUCKLE SHOWED DEFECTIVE. YESTERDAY I RECEIVED 2 DIFFERENT EMAILS FROM NHTSA FOR 2 RECALLS (#19V499 AND #19V501). NO LETTER WAS RECEIVED FROM HONDA YET BUT I HATE TO WAIT FOR A LETTER TO ARRIVE AS THAT COULD TAKE 60 DAYS, THEN WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE DEALER TO GET THE PARTS AND THEN GET AN APPOINTMENT. THIS SITUATION IS LIFE-THREATENING. IS THERE ANY WAY TO SPEED THIS PROCESS UP? ALSO THE REPAIR SHOP STATED THAT A LOT OF THE AIR BAGS THAT HAVE BEEN REPLACED, ARE NOW BEING RECALLED.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG LIGHT STAYS ON. THE DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY TO "SEARCH EVERY WIRE ASSOCIATED" WITH THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH 2005'S MANUFACTURED 7/20/2004-10/8/2004 AND THEY WERE RECALLED. APPARENTLY, THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED AND MULTIPLE VEHICLE OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS. WHY HAS THE RECALL NOT BEEN EXTENDED TO ALL 2005'S? I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY EVERY TIME I DRIVE. I CAN'T AFFORD THE REPAIR NOR CAN I JUST GO BUY A NEW CAR!
