problem #1

2007May 31

Civic LX ?

  • Automatic transmission
  • 50,000 miles

When I returned from my deployment, my (now) ex-husband informed me that there was "some weird light on" on my dashboard. I chekced the owner's manual, and it said that there was a problem with the airbags & seatbelts.

So, I took it into the dealership and they informed me that the SRS unit is defective, my warranty is out, and it's gonna cost me $570 to replace. They told me that if I didn't replace it, that the airbags and seatbelts might not work if I got into an accident.

I'd just finished paying $600 for my 50,000 mile tune up, tire rotation, oil change, etc... My broke little military self couldn't (and still can't) afford to replace a part that, by all means, shouldn't have broken down to begin with! The best part? It (conveniently) broke down right AFTER my warranty expired.

Apparently, the SRS unit tends to break down in several Honda models. I've been researching the problem online, and have found several complaints in Civics, Accords, CR-Vs, and now the Oddessy... if this is such a major problem (because defective airbags and seatbelts DOES constitute a MAJOR problem), why doesn't Honda FIX IT?!?!
