Consumer Description

IN DECEMBER 2002, WE REPLACED THE AIR BAG SENSOR/CONTROL MODULE IN OUR 1997 AFTER THE SRS WARNING SYSTEM LIGHT ACTIVATED AND THE COMPUTER CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM. LESS THAN TWO YEARS LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM RECURRED (AUGUST 2004), AND AMERICAN HONDA IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE PART ($400+) BECAUSE THE ONE-YEAR WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. IT TOOK NEARLY 95,000 MILES FOR THE FIRST UNIT TO FAIL, AND LESS THAN 20,000 FOR THE SECOND ONE TO FAIL. THIS IS MY THIRD AND, WILL BE MY LAST, HONDA.*AK
