2000 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

I BOUGHT A HONDA ACCORD LX 2000 IN 2004 WITH 46 K ON IT. SHORTLY THEREAFTER THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRE WHY IT WAS ON. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE MY AIRBAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. NOT ABLE TO BEAR THE EXPENSE OF REPAIR, I HAVE DRIVEN IT AS IS & THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS ALMOST 87,000. *TR

SRS LIGHT ILLUMINATED, AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY IF INVOLVED IN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON OUR 2000 HONDA ACCORD WITH 67K MILES ON IT. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE WARRANTY HAS BEEN EXTENDED FOR THIS ISSUE TO 10 YEARS OR 150K MILES, OURS IS NOW TEN YEARS OLD. WE FEEL THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND THAT HONDA SHOULD COVER THIS FOR THE LIFETIME OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS WHY PEOPLE BUY VEHICLES WITH ALL THE AIRBAGS...SAFETY! HONDA SHOULD COVER THIS PROBLEM NO QUESTIONS ASKED!! FOR LIFE.*DT

IN JUNE 09, HAVE AN ISSUE WITH SRS LIGHT COMING ON IN MY 2000 HONDA ACCORD VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THIS IS AN SEAT BELT ISSUE AND FIXED IT. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP IN JAN-2010 FOR SRS SYMBOL, DEALER SAID THAT THIS IS AN OPDS SENSOR ISSUE AND SINCE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY THIS WILL NOT BE COVERED. MY QUESTION- SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS, WHY IS HONDA NOT RECALLING. MY CAR HAS 115,000 MILES AND THIS IS PURCHASED IN NOV 1999. CAN WE HAVE HONDA ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS INSTEAD OF WARRANTY EXTENSION? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
