| In sept 2009 at approximately 58,500 miles, srs light came on and stayed on while driving. light turned off after powering car on and off again. per owners manual, took car to family honda dealer in rancho santa margarita, california to investigate (presumably under hondacare no deductible extended warranty). service tech found trouble code 81-43, and reinitialized/ recalibrated the passenger seat weight sensor (opds) and charged me $95 due to the diagnosis not being covered by hondacare without a diagnosed hardware failure. september 2011, approximately 95,000 miles: srs light came on again, and remained on after subsequent power on, power off cycles. approximately one day later (and several power cycles later), the light turned off. two weeks later, the light came on again, but went out the following power on/off cycle. light has not come on again. there is no cover on the passenger seat and i do not use it for storage when driving. | |||

| I was traveling approximately 25-30 mph when a woman driver failed to stop at a stop sign which cause me to hit the side of her car. my seatbelt retracted and save me, however the airbag did not deploy. there was however a scent of burning or a chemical reaction inside the cabin. i was under the impression that airbags will deploy at more than 10 mph upon impact. clearly i was going faster than 10-15 mph. i am wondering if something was amiss. | |||
