Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My daughter recently bought a 1996 Honda accord. The srs light was on; we brought it to a Honda dealership & were told that it would cost $881.00 plus tax to repair. If not repaired, the air bag would not deploy. We could not afford the repair so will not allow my 17 year old to drive on interstate until repaired. I cannot believe that Honda will not cover air bags for the life of the vehicle and am worried that I will lose my child over this.”
