2004 Honda Accord Air Bags

The contact owns a 2004 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while attempting to make a right turn, the air bags deployed independently. No warning lights illuminated. A dealer or independent mechanic was not contacted. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact's fiancé sustained injuries to the face, left eye, causing her to have a black eye, and her chest and the contact sustained injures to left side of his face and his left hand. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The contact was relating the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number:  18V268000 (AIR BAGS); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The approximate failure mileage was 147,486.

Air bag light continues to stay on even after having the recall of the wiring harness replaced. Went to the dealership and had the air bag inflater recall fixed on April 1,2021 the light came on and continued to stay on. On 5/24/2024 I serviced my vehicle at Honda of Cleveland and they stated I had an air bag code stating that my driver side airbag sensor is bad but because they fixed the recall in 2007 they said the air bag itself is faulty but not covered under recall. Just needing this documented in case an incident occurs and the air bag is faulty as indicated by the dealership.

The warning light for defective passenger airbag came on. Honda denies it and yet cannot get the warning light off. My grandson is the passenger. He is in constant danger.

My 2 door (coupe) has yet to be recalled for the exploding airbag. The sedan was recalled a long time ago. Undoubtedly the airbags are the same in both cars. Why no recall for the coupe? My guess is that the NHSTA applies separate statistical tests to the coupe and sedan as a matter of course--even if it makes no sense when both use the same part. Because so few coupes were made, the statistical threshold for exploding airbags was never reached to trigger a recall. Am I driving a timebomb? Will my death be the one to trigger a recall? Thank you for your response.

I Was hit extremely hard by a semi truck on the driver side of my car when the semi was making a small right turn in the middle lane on Race Street my little car became wedged almost underneath the shield and roof slightly began to get crushed but the AIRBAGS never deployed,when I heard the cracking of the shield i looked back at my children who are and still to this day are terrified! the back tires of the semi is staring them in the face I immediately squeezed out of my seat belt it wouldn't unlock at this point my car is being pulled back and forth from the driver of the semi keeps trying to widening his turn while I'm blowing the crap out of the my horn he still doesn't realize he hit me yet, maybe because his dog is all over the passenger side from him jerking the semi back and forth I grabbed my children and jumped out I was literally stuck between a traffic poll and a nightmare just glad to be Alive (((((AIRBAGS))))never deployed always had problems with this car the water pump the door locks,heater wouldn't shut off,only had the vehicle for a few months to say the least and it broke down a few weeks after purchasing it when I tried reaching the dealership who sold me the car I could never could get an answer

The passenger seat air bag light comes on and off intermittently, when no one is sitting in the seat! Specific recall; ID 07V001000. There are several recalls listed for airbags, but it said my car is not affected; however obviously it is!

I CANNOT LOOK UP MY VIN ON YOUR MAIN PAGE. I KEEP GETTING THE MESSAGE "CANNOT CONTACT RECAPTCHA", BOTH ON MY MAC AND IPHONE

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON RANDOMLY, WHETHER CAR IS HOT OR COLD. READING MANY OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, IT SEEMS STATISTICALLY IMPROBABLE THAT SO MANY AIRBAG PROBLEMS WOULD OCCUR WITHOUT EXISTENCE OF SYSTEMIC PROBLEM SIMILAR TO MY 2005 ACCORD, WHICH WAS RECALLED. PLEASE ENFORCE SIMILAR SAFETY CONCERN IN THESE SERIES THAT USE SAME AIRBAG PARTS. UNTIL THEN, HONDA WILL NOT INVESTIGATE WITHOUT COSTLY DIAGNOSIS FEE AND AMBIGUOUS EXPENSIVE REPAIR RECOMMENDATIONS. HOPE IT DOESN'T RANDOMLY PUNCH ME IN THE FACE WHILE I'M DOING 70 ON I75!

MY 2004 HONDA PILOT HAD A RECALL FOR SOMETHING NOT WORKING PROPERLY IN THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. SINCE RECEIVING THE RECALL NOTIFICATION ABOUT THE 2004 HONDA PILOT'S AIRBAG, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IN MY 2004 HONDA ACCORD LIT UP ON AUGUST 28, 2019 AND HAS STAYED LIT SINCE THE FIRST TIME IT LIT UP. MY 2004 HONDA PILOT DID NOT HAVE ITS AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COME ON AND IT DID HAVE A DEFECT. I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT AN AIRBAG SYSTEM RECALL ON THE 2004 HONDA ACCORDS. THEY SAID IT DID NOT HAVE ONE AND WOULD NOT CHECK WHY MY 2004 HONDA ACCORD AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAS LIT UP WITHOUT ME PAYING A $99 FEE. THESE CARS WERE MADE DURING THE SAME TIME PERIOD. THESE MODELS HAVE BOTH HAD PREVIOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE AIRBAG OR PART OF ITS SYSTEM. I DO NOT WANT TO DIE FROM A FAULTY PART HONDA PUT INTO MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THE RECALL HAS NOT BEEN PROCESSED FOR THAT VEHICLE YET. I AM TELLING YOU THIS IN WRITING SO MY FAMILY HAS GROUNDS TO SUE IF I AM HURT BY A PART YOU KNOW IS FAULTY AND HAVE NOT RECALLED IT IN A TIMELY MANNER AS YOU KNOW YOU NEED TO DO. THESE VEHICLES WERE MADE IN THE SAME TIME FRAME. YOU KNOW YOU USE THE SAME BASIC PARTS FROM THE SAME MANUFACTURES. ANNOUNCE THE AIRBAG SYSTEM RECALL FOR THE 2004 HONDA ACCORDS SO I CAN GET MY VEHICLE FIXED AND NOT WORRY ABOUT DRIVING AROUND A POTENTIAL TIME BOMB.
