The contact owns a 1996 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the SRS air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the SRS unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure.

Takata recall. I was in a accident on sycamore street in baton rouge Louisiana on 1/3/18 and a piece of metal shard punctured my leg and fracture my tibia. I was treated for contusions of chest wall also at ochsner on O'neal lane. I'm currently on bedrest and have to remain of my leg and can't return to work until I have a follow-up on 1/9/18. I really would like to attend to this matter as soon as possible, thank you and have a blessed day
Takata recall notice was sent to me on 10/31/2017. I key in my VIN and it meets the airbag recall or replace requirement. I then following the online instruction and call a local Honda authrized dealer. They answered my call and check the VIN to see if my 1996 Honda 2 door hatchback Accord meets the airbag replacement. They told me that my vehicle does not meet the airbag replace/recall service. I am filing this complaint to bring the attention to the NHTSA regarding this safety issue.
Air bag light comes on, won't go off. This has been going on since April 2016. Light comes on when car is started, and stays on while driving till car is turned off. I read this is an ongoing thing. Why isn't there a recall on this problem? the cost to have this fixed is half the value of what the car is worth.
Takata recall 1996 Honda Accord LX VIN # [xxx] my vehicle is a 1996 Honda Accord LX and is not among those recalled. It does have a takata airbag: Passenger side. Takata part #06780-SV1-A82zb. I believe the car may also have a takata airbag on the driver's side, but have not been able to obtain that info conclusively. I have read the expert report about the cause(s) of the takata airbag malfunctions. wpdown1.com/doc/pdf/download/www__safercar__gov--rs--takata--pdfs--expert_report-hrblomquist.pdf it is extremely frustrating to be unable to determine why my vehicle is not part of the recall. NHTSA representatives (888-327-4236) have not been able to provide any information. Neither has Honda. Honda's main customer service # 800-999-1009 representatives looked up my VIN # and found nothing there about airbag manufacturer. They claim no takata airbags were installed by Honda prior to year 2000. Other Honda dealer representatively records demonstrate otherwise and provided the part # for the passenger side airbag (listed above). (also various web pages indicate that Honda began using takata airbags in the early 1990's.) my vehicle is in top condition, has fewer than 50,000 miles, new paint, new other things so I am reluctant to stop driving it - at least until I can determine 1. whether my vehicle has one or two takata airbags. (Honda reps are contradictory and confused about this.) 2. why my vehicle (with at least one takata airbag) is not part of the recall. 3. what my options are. (I would hope that since 1996 vehicles are apparently not required by law to have airbags, one option available to me would be to just have the airbags removed.) if you could answer any or all of the above questions, particularly questions 1 and 2 - or direct me to someone who can, I would very much appreciate it. Thank you. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
Takata recall. I have a 10 year old Honda Accord that is well within the danger zone for recall for airbag failure. Todays Washington post says takata admits the problem and says it will recall 40 million affected vehicles. I should be high on the priority list can you help me assure this?.
SRS light is on (air bag). Just noticed it come on while driving. Too expensive to fix, will cost half what car is worth. Why is their no recall? seams to be a common problem. It's been like this for long time.
I had a 1996 Honda Accord V6 2.7 liters with SRS light stays on. I took the vehicle to the Honda dealership and I was told that the SRS control module unit has a failure and need to be replaced. The unit price is over $700 dollar without installation labor. I talked to american Honda motor and they refused to assist fixing this safety concern. Honda suppose to lower the prices for parts on older cars to match the current value of the car.
SRS system light on after car is running, approx. Cost to repair 900.00.is there a recall on this problem, seems there is a lot of people experiencing same as myself.
Started up car and the SRS light was on. Still remains on after running and driving N for over 60 miles.. car has not had any accidents, hasn't been driven much because it is a second car.. updated 01/20/11
In 1996 V6 Honda Accord, the SRS light come on and several trials were done to erase the fault. The dealer told me that the SRS control module need to be replaced at $800 cost. Dealer told that the airbag will not be deployed in case of an accidents.
I own a 1996 Honda Accord LX which has a faulty driver side seat belt. I don't have the money to fix the problem and is quite expensive. This happened 4 or five months ago and is, of course, a serious safety concern. Now, as of this date, the SRS light has come on which apparently is another safety concern due to the fact that the airbags will not deploy.
1996 Honda Accord LX. Purchased a new cigarette phone charger, plugged it into the lighter which blew the fuse that controls the lighter and radio. Replaced fuse and verified power was restored to aforementioned electronics. Consequently, additionally noted that the SRS light was now also illuminated. Took car to mechanic, who diagnosed problem to be a fried SRS control unit. In addition was told that this shop has seen many of same era Honda with same problem... there is an issue with the unit not being grounded, allowing other simple fuse failures to back feed the unit and destroy it. Honda does not have a recall on there 1996 airbag system; however the 1995 had a problem... the replacement part is an "updated" part with new features to prevent similar failures of re-occurrence. $750 for part and labor to install. This is clearly an manufacture defect.
1-there are no major events which lead up to the failure. 2-the SRS light has come on randomly 3. nothing was done to correct this failure. I have noticed that many people are having problems with the SRS light coming on in Honda Accord and mine is no exception. Nothing has been done by Honda to make sure this safety feature is corrected. That is very disappointing.
