Ok, I don't know anything about cars. My SRS light indicator came back on again.
2 years ago I went on vacation for a week and my mom used my car during that time, when I came home the SRS light indicator came on and stayed on when I was using the car. I got worried since I thought that the air bags wouldn't deploy if I got into an accident. So i took it immediately to the Honda dealer and they fixed it saying it was some kind of problem with my computer in the car or something. They said they hooked it up to a central computer and basically reprogramed everything or something like that. I'm sure they lied or ripped me off b/c I didn't know anything I only cared that they fixed it. They told me not to put my cell phone on the car seat anymore nor should I put it in my purse and then put it in the car seat. So for the last 2 years I put my purse on the floor or took the phone out and put it on the cup holder but last week, it came back on AGAIN!! what is going on???? I refuse to take it to the dealer again b/c they charged me $85 last time. Rip off. Can someone please tell me what is wrong?? And what I can do to fix it for cheap?
When I got it fix last time they said if it happens again I have to replace the whole system or something and that's over $300 dollars. eeeeek. Is that true??

There has been a recall for that problem. Call your dealer. The warrantee has been extended to 150,000 miles.
That cell phone stuff is total BS. I would report them to Honda Corp.

I think she is experiencing a steady SRS light. Not the occupant detection problem.
Manitoufs, any chance you have a link to ANY extended coverage information ??
My 05 currently has a solid SRS light and the diagnosis is 7-2 "internal failure of the SRS control unit" Just under $1000
Honda seems to choose some pretty crappy electronics systems IMO.
