The contact owns a 2000 Acura RL. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V027000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact called the local dealer who confirmed that parts were not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. Parts distribution disconnect.
I have received a notice from America Honda motor company on March 2020 (NHTSA recall 20V-026) that the inflator inside the driver frontal airbag module may absorb moisture, which may cause the driver frontal airbag to malfunction in a crash where the airbag deploys. The letter states "the replacement parts needed to repair your vehicle, if necessary, are not available and Acura is unable to inspect/repair your vehicle at this time." I called a local Acura dealer on 9/1/2020 and was told that the parts are still not available and they are expected May 2021. This timeframe seems unreasonable to me.

Tamara recall my SRS light stays on continually. I am concerned there is a problem with the airbags. I need to know if it is safe to have someone in the passenger seat or if the airbag is defective and is a recall. I do not drive this car very often but now I have to because I have no other transportation.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the sensor in the passenger seat needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.

The SRS sensor jus pop on the ABS sensor pop on also the check engine light pops I don't know what to do and also I heard ticking and tapping and the engine started jumping whether I'm going slow or fast I really need some serious help why is because I can possibly be in great danger do to the sensors that are going out in my vehicle.
SRS light on the dash stays on. It is my understanding that the airbags will not deploy with light on. I had an independent mechanic determine that the airbag control module needs to be replaced. I believe this should be a repair that should be covered by a manufacturer warranty. Based on review of the safercar.gov website there are several other incidents of this same problem for this make, model and year.

SRS light on dash stays on. Dealer cannot reset to get light to stay off. Acura of denville, NJ says opds (occupant position detection system) and sensor assemblies need to be re-placed at a cost of $1349.65 (+ tax). With SRS light on air bags will not deploy. The SRS failure appears to be the failure most documented in this forum. It is a safety issue which should have a recall to correct the problem.
The SRS light on my 2000 Acura Rl has come on and will not go off...I see that there was a problem with Honda vehicles with this problem...does the recall also apply to Acura Rl models?...please advise.
Vehicle had multiple electrical problems. The problems may have cause one crash. Bf the consumer hit a vehicle which was stopped in a turning lane at 35 mph. When the vehicle crashed the air bags did not deploy. Throttle body was bent. Faulty window regulator caused the window to not close.
