TAKATA RECALL MY VAN WAS PART OF THE RECALL AND THE FIX WAS DONE BUT WHEN IT IS HUMID OUTSIDE THEN MY SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON. WHEN WE GO DOWN SOUTH TO FLORIDA THEN THE SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON UNTIL WE GET INTO LESS HUMID WEATHER. WE ARE PLANNING ON MOVING BACK DOWN SOUTH AND WE ARE WORRIED THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT FIXED RIGHT. ALSO THE PASSENGER HEADLAMP GOES OUT TWICE AS FAST AS THE DRIVERS SIDE. I HAVE TO REPLACE THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP TWICE BEFORE I HAVE TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS SIDE.

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.
