THE SRS AND SIDE AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE ILLUMINATED ON THE FRONT DASH. AFTER HAVING THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL PERFORMED ON MY CAR, I WAS TOLD THAT THESE LIGHTS WERE UNRELATED. INSTEAD, I WOULD NEED TO PAY SOMEWHERE BETWEEN $600-$1,000 TO HAVE THE SRS CONTROL UNIT REPLACED, WHICH MAY SOLVE THE ISSUE. IN THE MEANTIME, MY SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS WILL NOT WORK IN A CRASH. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY INCIDENTS YET (NO CRASHES) BUT FEEL THAT I AM AT RISK IF I WERE TO BE IN A CRASH DURING WHICH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT WOULD NORMALLY OCCUR.

I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, STOPPED AT A LIGHT AND MY CAR JUST WOULDN'T MOVE. I HAD TO TURN IT OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AGAIN TO GET IT MOVING. BUT, AS SOON AS I STOPPED AGAIN, IT STOPPED MOVING...TURNED IT OFF AND ON AGAIN AND IT BARELY MOVED ENOUGH FOR ME TO PULL OVER AND GET A TOW. I HAD IT TAKEN TO A SHOP, BUT WAS TOLD LATER THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. IT WAS MOVING AGAIN. SO, I CONTACTED A FRIEND WHO KNOWS HONDA'S AND HE INFORMED ME THAT THIS YEAR AND MAKE HAS HAD MANY TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS AND THAT IT'S LIKELY I'LL NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I THINK THAT THIS SHOULD BE HONDA'S RESPONSIBILITY, THE CAR DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH MILEAGE AND I'M IN CALIFORNIA WHERE THE WEATHER IS MILD. IT'S OUTRAGEOUS THAT HONDA HASN'T HAD AN OFFICIAL RECALL. I WANT THEM HELD ACCOUNTABLE. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY. I WAS WITH MY SEVENTY TWO YEAR OLD MOM WHO HAS DEMENTIA AND SHE WAS TERRIFIED. SO I'M ANGRY TO SAY THE LEAST.
