2002 Honda Accord Air Bags & Restraints Problems

The contact owns a 2002 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the driver's side air bag warning light remained illuminated. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 354,000.

On Sept. 28, 2023 I was driving this car and it was on a very rough highway and it went into a skid and flipped over and was totaled. It was towed to Willow Creek, CA for one week. I was badly injured and had no way to get to Willow Creek, CA so I had to pay $500 for it to be stored and they eventually got the title of the car from me and allegedly disposed of the 2002 Accord. I did not see it after the accident as I was bedridden and unable to travel to see the condition of my car. The passenger's side of the back seat was GONE and you could see the ground, I do remember that much despite my severe injuries to my head and body. I was the driver and the driver's side airbags failed to deploy despite the numerous time I took it in to Mid-City Motor World in Eureka, CA responding to numerous airbag recalls. I was told prior airbag recalls had not worked and that is why I had to keep going back to have them done over and over again. I am the original owner of this car and I got hurt badly in this accident. It has been over two months now and I have yet to fully recover. I often wonder if I ever will fully recover as I still have pain in my back, arms, legs and head. If the airbags had worked, I would not have ended up bedridden with a head injury and unable to move. I had no help at all after the accident. Shame on you Honda for failing to assist a person that was injured because of one of the cars you made that has a history of recalls as noted at this federal government link: [XXX] I called HONDA on the phone to report his incident and have never received a call back to my knowledge. 1 800 999 1009 is the telephone number I have called. I was told they called me back on time. Did they really? Isn't there some sort of compensation for people driving a car that had numerous airbag recalls that failed when an accident occurred? I will never buy another Honda again as I am so disgusted. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Air Bags never deployed in an accident. Honda shows recall work was done prior to collision. Front end collision

I was in a car accident I was driving and my airbag was defected

WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHERE A LATTER FLEW OUT OF THE BACK OF A GUYS TRUCK AND BECAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND I HIT HIM WHEN I COULDN'T STOP FAST ENOUGH AND NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. I WAS BERRYBRUISED UP AND I DID GO TO THE HOSTPITAL.

I WAS IN A BAD CAR ACCIDENT WAS ON SATURDAY, 11/02/2019, WHERE BOTH CARS WERE TOTALED. I WAS A STOPLIGHT ON A CITY STREET (GLENWOOD DR) WAITING TO TURN LEFT. AS I PROCEED TO TURN LEFT ON A GREEN ARROW (GOING APPROX 5 MILE/HR) I WAS HIT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY A VEHICLE TRAVELING (PER THE OTHER DRIVER'S STATEMENT) APPROXIMATELY 37-40 MILE/HR AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. A LARGE PART OF THE IMPACT WAS ABSORBED BY THE LEFT FRONT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THEN TRAVEL TO THE PASSENGER DOOR. MY AIRBAGS HAD BEEN RECALLED THIS SUMMER AN TAKEN TO HONDA OF CONYERS WHERE THEY WERE REPLACED. UNFORTUNATELY, NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON IMPACT. I WAS THE DRIVER AND MY 14-YEAR OLD NIECE WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. MY NIECE DIDN'T SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES; HOWEVER, I HAVE SOME SPINAL INJURY AND WAS SEEN BY THE EMORY ORTHOPEDIC AND SPINE CENTER WHERE THEY THEN ASSIGNED A TREATMENT PROGRAM WHERE I AM TO RECEIVE PHYSICAL THERAPY 2 X PER WEEK FOR 4 WEEKS ( THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE, MANUAL THERAPY, STRETCHING, PARASPINAL STRENGTHENING, MODALITIES PRN, AND C-TRACTION.) I'VE ATTACHED 3 PHOTOS OF MY VEHICLE.

SRS WARNING LIGHT IS ON , INDICATING THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN ISSUES WITH THE TAKATA BAGS I DECIDE TO INVESTIGATE.

FEW YEARS AGO I HAD PROBLEMS WITH SEAT BELT CODES POPPING UP. TOOK CAR TO ONE OF THE DEALERS (DO NOT REMEMBER WHICH ONE..LOST MY RECEIPT/PAPER WORK) AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. AFTER THAT "FIX" THE REMINDER LIGHT AND ALARM FOR SEAT BELTS DIDN'T LIGHT UP AT ALL (ON A DASH BOARD), ASKED TECHNICIANS ABOUT IT AT THAT TIME AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE LIGHT/ALARM NEEDS TO BE CHANGING AND THAT IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. IT HAD BEEN FEW YEARS SINCE AND WHENEVER I DRIVE THE CAR I AM UNEASY ABOUT IT: IT SOMEHOW DISTURBS ME WHENEVER I TURN THE CAR ON OR DRIVE IT. BELT (DRIVER'S SIDE) SOMETIMES DOESN'T GET TIGHT(ER?)EN AT ALL WHEN I BRAKE. I READ THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND USUALLY HONDA MAKER REQUIRES TO FIX IT AND IT IS AT NO CHARGE. THIS YEAR I TALKED TO ONE OF THE BALLISE HONDA (WEST SPRINGFIELD) DEALERSHIPS' TECHNICIAN (INFORMATION/CONVERSATION WAS NOT ENTERED IN THE COMPUTER) AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT A BIG A DEAL (THE LIGHT/ALARM SOUND IS NOT ON WHEN BELTS ARE NOT ENGAGED) AND IF I WANT TO FIX IT I WOLD HAVE TO PAY. I TOLD HIM WHEN THEY WENT OFF : AFTER THE PROBLEM I HAD FEW YEARS THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. SO..I AM CURIOUS IS IT A SAFETY ISSUE COVERED BY HONDA OR IS IT JUST IN MY HEAD SOMETHING THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT AS PER TECHNICIAN. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE DATE WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY (I THINK) JUST TURN THAT SIGNAL/ALARM OFF ...BECAUSE BEFORE I TOOK MY CAR TO THEM ALL WAS ON AND WORKING PROPERLY EXCEPT FOR THE LIGHTS POINTING TO THE ISSUE. SO,NOW I AM PUTTING PRESENT DAY (BELOW WHERE IT REQUIRES TO PUT THE DATE WHEN FIRST IT HAPPENED BECAUSE I DO NOT REMEMBER THAT DATE)... BECAUSE THE FORM WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO PROCEED.

MY LADY WAS INVOLVED IN A PRETTY BAD ACCIDENT THERE WAS A RECALL ON HER VEHICLES AIRBAG WE HAD IT FIX BUT THE DEALERSHIP AND N THE ACCIDENT THE AIRBAG ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG N PASSENGER AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN THE ACCIDENT SHE GOT A KNOT ON HER CHEST FROM IT SHE WAS ON HER WAY HOME FROM WORK WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPEN ON A CITY STREET

TAKATA RECALL- I HAD THE 1ST RECALL REPAIRED ON MY HONDA A FEW YEARS AGO BUT IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS THE SRS LIGHT AND SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT WERE BOTH ON AND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS PARTIALLY INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. I TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THESE LIGHTS ARE ON DUE TO A FAULTY SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THE LIGHTS TO GO OFF....FOR NOW, BUT THAT THE LIGHTS WOULD PROBABLY COME BACK ON AFTER DRIVING IT A WHILE. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER, THE SRS LIGHT AND SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ARE BACK ON AGAIN.

TAKATA RECALL- I PURCHASED A USED 2002 HONDA ACCORD TODAY, 7/31/2019. WHEN I ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND STARTED THE CAR, I NOTICED THE SRS LIGHT ON THE DASH WAS ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG LOOKS TO BE PARTIALLY INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. THE AIRBAG IS NOT DEPLOYED BUT IT DOES SEEM LIKE OVER TIME IT HAS INFLATED UNDER THE DASH. CURRENTLY THERE ARE 6 RECALLS RELATED TO AIRBAG MODULES IN THE YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF MY VEHICLE, YET FOR SOME REASON THIS WEBSITE SAYS MY VIN# IS NOT INCLUDED. PLEASE ADDRESS THIS AIRBAG ISSUE ON MY VEHICLE, IF I WERE TO EVER WRECK, I WOULDN'T WANT ANYONE TO GET HURT BECAUSE OF A FAULTY RECALLED AIRBAG MODULE THAT WAS JUST SKIPPED OVER.
