The contact owns a 2003 Honda Civic. While driving 5 mph, the vehicle crashed into a curb and the air bags deployed. The air bag warning light illuminated ten to fifteen minutes after the incident. After experiencing the failure, it was discovered that the vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign numbers: 15V37000 (air bags) and 15V320000 (air bags). The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was confirmed that the vehicle was included in the recalls. Due to the failure already being experienced, the vehicle was not repaired and the recall remedies were declined. A police report was not filed and no injuries were sustained. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 127,000. The VIN was not available.
SRS light is always on. I have reset it a number of times but it will go on again after a few days or weeks. The air bags will not deploy when the light is on. I am surprised that this is not a very serious safety issue. From reviewing the complaints, the dealers answers or guesses as to what's wrong are too numerous to list here and the cost just to investigate is just too high. There is something obviously wrong with this system and Honda needs to seriously address this issue.
2003 Honda Civic. Consumer writes in regards to airbag recall replacement part problems. The dealer informed the consumer, the passenger side air bag replacement parts were on back order and they would contact him when the parts arrived. The consumer stated that was back in January 2015 and as of July 11, 2015 the parts are still not available.
My daughter was driving our Honda Civic 2003 and rear-ended a vehicle. The air bag did not deploy. The air bags had been serviced by a Honda dealership in 2014 due to the takata recall. This is an issue and I don't know why the air bag did not deploy. I can provide photo evidence, if requested. My daughter did have slight neck injury as a result. Updated 09/15/15 updated 12/08\17

My seatbelt/SRS light went came on and when I took it to the Honda dealership I was told that there is an issue with the SRS sensor but is not covered under any warranty. To me it seems like a safety issue that Honda does not cover the SRS sensor in the buckle. With this sensor going bad it could cause an issue with the airbag. My Honda has had multiple recalls on the airbag but nothing on the sensor. I believer Honda should cover this as a safety issue.
