I TOOK MY CAR TO DEALER TO WORK ON 3 RECALL NOTICES ON DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG (NOT TAKATA RELATED SINCE IT'S NOT A TAKATA AIRBAG), PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG, AND SEAT BELT. I ALSO HAD A SRS WARNING LIGHT THAT WAS ON CONSTANTLY FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS SO I HAD THE DEALER DIAGNOSE THE WARNING LIGHT. THE CODE SHOWED 11-21 (SOMETHING ABOUT OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE ON THE AIRBAG). THE DEALER SAID THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO BE REPLACED FOR ABOUT $1200 AND THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY TAMPERING WITH THE AIRBAG WIRING. THIS TOTALLY DID NOT MAKE SENSE SINCE I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND NOBODY TAMPERED WITH THE AIRBAG. THE LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON AFTER 5-6 YEARS SINCE I OWNED THE VEHICLE AND THE CAR WAS NEVER INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THIS LOOKS LIKE A POOR QUALITY AIR BAG WAS USED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS MADE AND I THINK HONDA SHOULD REPLACE THIS AIRBAG AT THEIR COST.
