In Sept 2009 at approximately 58,500 miles, SRS light came on and stayed on while driving. Light turned off after powering car on and off again. Per owners manual, took car to family Honda dealer in rancho santa margarita, California to investigate (presumably under hondacare no deductible extended warranty). Service tech found trouble code 81-43, and reinitialized/ recalibrated the passenger seat weight sensor (opds) and charged me $95 due to the diagnosis not being covered by hondacare without a diagnosed hardware failure. September 2011, approximately 95,000 miles: SRS light came on again, and remained on after subsequent power on, power off cycles. Approximately one day later (and several power cycles later), the light turned off. Two weeks later, the light came on again, but went out the following power on/off cycle. Light has not come on again. There is no cover on the passenger seat and I do not use it for storage when driving.
The contact owns a 2007 Honda CR-V. while driving approximately 40 mph, the antilock brake system engaged when the brake pedal was depressed. The contact rear ended another vehicle. As a result, the bumper completely detached from the front end of the vehicle and the radiator was damaged. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained major injuries because the seat belt locked and would not unlatch. The passenger in the other vehicle was uninjured. A police report was filed and the vehicle was towed to the dealer. Prior to the failure, the contact heard a grinding sound while driving in reverse, but there was no failure at that time. The current and failure mileages were 14,000.
The contact owns a 2007 Honda CR-V. while driving approximately 35-40 mph, the contact rear ended the preceding vehicle. As a result, the vehicle behind the contact rear ended her vehicle, pushing her even further into the vehicle she struck. The air bags failed to deploy and she sustained severe injuries such as a broken sternum. The vehicle was towed and taken to a repair shop, where it has remained for approximately two months. The failure and current mileages were 10,000. Updated 12/31/07 updated 12/31/07
