2012 HONDA CIVIC Air Bags Problems

I have had this 2012 for a little over a year, within the past 6 months periodically the check air bag system warning lamp comes on if I make a sharp turn or move the steering wheel very fast. On the guage it says that the passenger side air bag is off..This issue just came out of no where, but generally the car runs great

I was 3 hrs away from home and I started my vehicle and the air bag light began flashing and beeping. The light was on the message board that indicates my speed, clock, fuel, etc. it basically is the information center for the car. I pushed the information button on the steering wheel to clear it but it kept blinking and flashing the entire way home. I also turned off the engine and restarted it but no luck with that either. It was a very distracting experience having to drive 3 hours like this. I made an appointment with my mechanic and he diagnosed it as the Occupant Passenger Detection Sensor. This will cost $800.00 to repair. The car is not drive able in this condition because of the safety of the air bag. I looked up recalls but it seems my car has none.

The IMA inverter system keeps malfunctioning without any clear reasons, and the car is in drive mode, which makes the electric motor unresponsive. Additionally, the braking system also malfunctions, leading to a lack of control over the vehicle. I have tried to repair it multiple times, but to no avail. It keeps malfunctioning without any apparent reason.

Car is stating air bag system check on and off.

My airbag warning light comes on intermittently. When the light is on, the airbags are non-functional. It comes on at various times while driving, and at various speeds. The official diagnosis is a flaw in the "internal resistance in driver's airbag inflator." This is a well-established problem in this model, and Honda offers extended warranty coverage for the passenger side airbag for this problem. Yet Honda refuses to take any responsibility or action for the drivers side with the same issue. Numerous other manufacturers have issued recalls or other corrective action for the same part.

We were making a left turn, and a SUV ran the red light across the street and ran through the intersection hitting us broadside at about 45 mph. We were traveling at about. 20-30 mph as we were going to the freeway onramp and had to get to speed. The SUV impact was by the front passenger side tire or just after. The impact was hard enough to bend the subframe to the left. The side air bags did not inflate. We have always had issues with the child safety sensor in the front passenger seat, could that have been the reason? The passenger in the seat was about 105 -110 lbs. and hit the door panel and glass as a result of the air bags no deploying. The hit was bad enough it killed the engine and the frame damage further disabled it.

Like others, I have had an airbag warning light appear intermittently. Apparently, my VIN is affected by this even though this and Honda's website indicates there are 0 recalls for my car. Dealership informed me that this indeed is a recall issue.

Airbag system appears

Light for Air Bag System fault keeps intermittingly coming on. I know it was a problem in the civic until 2011 but I have a 2012 and it may have been an issue or this year as well.

The contact owns a 2012 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while her husband was driving at approximately 55 mph, his vehicle crashed into a stopped Ford F-150. The driver was sore where x-rays were performed and medical attention was provided. There was no fire. A police report was filed. The air bags did not deploy. The vehicle was towed to an unknown location. The air bag warning light illuminated after the impact. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 196,000.

Mileage: 196,000

The airbag popped for no reason, and Honda was unable to fix it, 8 months in the dealership with no progress.

Air bag light came on sometime back. Took it to dealer from where we purchased the car and we were told a specific part had failed which came up during Airbag Diagnostics - 77900-TR0-A11 (Reel). Had it replaced per Dealer suggestion. Dealer 'OPEN ROAD HONDA, Edison, NJ'. However the light came back up again. Now the Dealer is saying the Airbag Control Unit is malfunctioning and now I have to replace this part. Please check if there are recalls associated with this model Honda Airbags.

I braked unexpectedly and only my license plate was curved, but the driver passenger bag component popped open. The airbag didn't deploy properly. So if I was in an actual accident, I would have died.

1 airbags didn't deploy on highway accident on 1/11/2021. Honda usa rejected inspection upon request. 2 14 wheeler hit driverside on civic on hwy we almost died. 3 I reported accident of bags not deploying to Hobda USA. They denied case open for free inspection. 4 Airbags have not been inspected by no one. 5 unknown on the warning lamps . Dont know system.

The contact's girlfriend owns a 2012 Honda Civic. The contact stated that upon his girlfriend placing the vehicle into drive(D) while in her garage; the air bags deployed without warning. Black smoke emitted from the vehicle as his girlfriend exited the vehicle; the air bag hit his girlfriend in the face which resulted in a headache, she did not seek medical attention. She called the dealer and they informed her to bring in the vehicle for an inspection. The contact's girlfriend took the vehicle to the dealer on two occasions where they discovered that the air bag light had illuminated on the instrument panel but quickly disappeared prior to failure. His girlfriend was given an estimate for repair. The contact called Performance Kings Honda(9131 Fields Ertel Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45249) where he was given an appointment to have a second diagnostic performed on the vehicle. The contact attempted to reach the manufacturer but was unsuccessful. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 86,000.

Mileage: 86,000

The contact owns a 2012 Honda Civic. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to multiple local dealers and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.

Mileage: 10,000

My light for airbag inspection came on shortly after purchase. When we asked about it during a routine service we were told that shouldn't be happening. We were told the airbags are still working and they do not know why that is happening but, they were not interested in taking care of the issue even tho the car was under warranty at the time and several recalls were being issued for other cars with the Takata Airbags in them. Because of this poor service we decided to stop using your service. Now, several years later I have become aware of all the problems others are having with your airbags and requested a call back from a supervisor because no one answering your phones has offered any responsible response to this problem. No one is able to get a hold of a supervisor. I was finally given a case # thru an email from an unknown person with no contact information. I am very upset that I was not notified about this safety concern sooner and do not accept the system that you are using to get out of fixing a problem you pretended to know nothing about. Every time I try to find out which airbags are in my car I am referred to Takata Lawsuit over dysfunctional exploding bags are going off in older vehicles. I simply do not trust your process after many attempts to contact a responsible party and told they will get to it but, no one gets back and they have show no concern at all on their part. I do not wish to wait any longer for a correct response. it is long past due.

Check Airbag System light will turn on as soon as I start driving. SRS Code 11-10 open in the driver's airbag first inflator.

I HAVE NO FEELING IN PARTS OF MY THUMB AND FIRST TWO FINGERS AND HALF OF MY KNUCKLE AREA IS ALSO NUMB. THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2016. IT IS THE MIDDLE OF DECEMBER AND I AM STILL TOO SCARED TO DRIVE. I STILL CAN'T USE MY ARM BECAUSE IT STILL HASN'T HEALED. I HAVE SUFFERED PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY BECAUSE OF THE AIR BAG BREAKING MY ARM. IF THE AIR BAG DIDN'T DEPLOY, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN HURT AT ALL. COULD THERE HAVE BEEN SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY AIRBAGS? A RECALL?? I WOULD HATE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE.

I WAS IN A STOP AND GO TRAFFIC THE VAN IN FRONT MADE A SUDDEN STOP I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKE BUT HIT THE VAN. IMPACT WAS BIG NO MAJOR DAMAGE BUT SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED AND I CAN SMELL NEAR AIR BAG I HAVE CHECK AIR BAG SYSTEM SIGN ON BUT AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY

RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE, AND IT SAYS THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT ABLE TO PERFORM THE FIX IN A TIMELY MANNER, IT SAYS TO AVOID PASSENGERS IN MY VEHICLE. I AM REQUESTING INFORMATION ON WHAT TO DO, BECAUSE IT IS IMPERATIVE FOR MY JOB TO HAVE PASSENGERS IN MY CAR. NO INCIDENT HAS TAKEN PLACE INVOLVING A MALFUNCTION, BUT I WISH TO RESOLVE OR KNOW MY OPTIONS AND LIMITATIONS MORE THOROUGHLY REGARDING THIS ISSUE. *TR

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS DRIVING HONDA CIVIC 2012 ON A FRONTAGE ROAD WITH MY WIFE SITTING ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT . UNFORTUNATELY, OTHER CAR CRASHED IN MY HONDA CIVIC 2012 AND DRIVER, PASSENGER SIDE AIR BEGS GOT DEPLOYED. SURPRISINGLY, I GOT INJURY MARKS ON MY HAND FROM THE AIR BAG. I SUSPECT MOST LIKELY THERE WAS SOME FAULT IN MY AIR BAGS WHICH RESULTED IN INJURY MARKS ON MY HAND. I DO SEE THAT 2012 HONDA CIVIC CARS ARE NOT PART OF TAKATA RECALL BUT I SUSPECT SOME OF 2012 HONDA CIVIC CARS INCLUDING MINE COULD HAVE FAULTY AIR BAGS INSTALLED FROM THE MANUFACTURER. PLEASE TAKE NEEDFUL ACTIONS.

TAKATA RECALL: I BROUGHT MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC LX INTO TODAY 6/9/2016 IN REGAL HONDA IN LAKELAND, FLORIDA TO HAVE THE AIRBAG PASSENGER SEAT SENSORS REPLACED, THE PARTS REPLACED WERE: PAD, R, F, 81127, OPDS UNIT 81334 AND C-CLIP SE 90600. PLUS A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO I HAD THE DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED FOR $49.95. THE SYMPTOM WAS THE AIRBAG SENSOR WAS BEING DISPLAYED.

Mileage: 52,000

I DON'T KNOW WHAT A TAKATA RECALL IS, BUT PER HONDA'S WEBSITE I HAVE NO RECALLS. I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT ON 5/21 AROUND 2PM. I WAS DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT CITY ROAD CLOSE TO GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING ABOUT 25MPH. THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRIVING NEXT TO ME "DIDN'T SEE ME" AS SHE TURNED INTO MY LANE. SHE SCRAPED THE WHOLE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR THEN HER CAR LODGED INTO MY CAR NEAR WHERE THE DOOR & FRONT PART OF THE CAR MEET ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE CAR HIT RIGHT NEAT THE SIDE AIRBAG, BUT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS WENT OFF. THAT IS WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT. WHY DID NONE OF THE AIRBAGS GO OFF?

DURING A MILD RAIN EVENT TODAY I DROVE MY CAR FOR NO MORE THAN 35 MINUTES AT NO MORE THAN 60 MPH. WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION, I NOTICED A WET SPOT WHERE THE DRIVER'S SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG COVER MEETS THE INTERIOR ROOF COVER ALONG THE A PILLAR.

I HAVE A 2012 HONDA CIVIC AND I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF IT. I JUST NOTICED THAT MY STEERING WHEEL HAS A CRACK IN THE MIDDLE OF IT WHERE THE AIRBAG COMES OUT OF.

I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE TAKATA AIR BAG SITUATION. I QUESTION THE SAFETY OF MY CAR. FORTUNATELY I HAVEN'T HAD AN INCIDENT OR ACCIDENT HOWEVER I AM CONCERNED THAT TAKATA AND HONDA HAVE NOT BEEN FORTHRIGHT & TRANSPARENT IN RE: IDENTIFYING MODELS THAT ARE AT RISK OF FAULTY AIR BAGS. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA SAN FRANCISCO WHERE I PURCHASED MY CAR AS WELL AS HONDA AMERICA. BECAUSE MY VIN INDICATES NO RECALL, NEITHER HONDA SAN FRANCISCO OR HONDA AMERICA WILL ADDRESS MY CONCERN. I'VE ASKED HONDA SAN FRANCISCO TO CHECK MY CAR FOR CONFIRMATION THAT MY AIR BAGS ARE TAKATA AND IF SO, FOR A SAFETY CHECK AND/OR TO DISCONNECT MY AIR BAG. THEY REFUSED TO DO THE SAFETY CHECK OR DISCONNECT BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE CURRENT RECALL. I ASK, WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET THIS ADDRESSED? AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH? I WOULD LIKE FURTHER ACTION TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ALL CARS WITH TAKATA AIR BAGS. I WELCOME RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FURTHER ACTION. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2012 HONDA CIVIC LX ON MAY 2012. UNTIL NOV 2014, I HAD DRIVEN THE CAR WITHOUT A PASSENGER. MID NOVEMBER, I TRIED TO TAKE THE CAR ON AN OUT OF TOWN TRIP TO ADD MILEAGE; I WAS THE PASSENGER......UPDATED 12/29/15 *BF A FEW MILES INTO THE TRIP, THE "PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG OFF" INDICATOR LIKE STARTED GOING ON AND OFF. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE LIGHT KEPT GOING ON AND OFF; WE ABORTED THE TRIP IN THIS CAR; AIRBAGS ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE SAFETY SYSTEM. CAR WAS SERVICED AT THE HONDA DEALER ON NOV 18; THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG; I TOOK THE CAR HOME. I AGAIN TRIED TO RIDE THE PASSENGER SEAT - THE LIGHT WENT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES (10 OR MORE); ONCE AGAIN THE CAR WAS SERVICED BY HONDA ON JAN 7, 2015. AGAIN, I WAS TOLD THE CAR WAS "SAFE" AND THAT I MUST BE TOO LIGHT/PETITE FOR THE AIRBAG, SO THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT WAS GOING ON AND OFF. MILEAGE WAS NOW 4,307 MILES AND CAR LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD. PER THE INVOICE "THE SYSTEM OPERATES AS DESIGNED AT THIS TIME. SYSTEM DISABLES SIDE AIR BAG FOR CUSTOMER SAFETY". I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO THE HONDA SERVICE REP. THE CIVIC MANUAL SAYS THE SYSTEM OPERATES WITH PERSON "65 POUNDS" AND UP (I WEIGH 115 LBS). I AM NOW EXPECTED TO DRIVE A CAR THAT I CANNOT USE AS A PASSENGER - AND GET THIS - IT IS FOR "MY PROTECTION" THAT THE AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF. I REPORTED THE SITUATION TO HONDA CORP ON FEB 4 AND OPENED A CASE. AS I WRITE, I AM SCHEDULED TO TAKE THE CAR WITH A TECHNICIAN'S 2/12 TO SEE IF TECH CAN DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. ISSUE IS THAT THE INCIDENTS ARE RANDOM AND A TEST DRIVE MAY NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE SEARCHED "CAR COMPLAINTS AND HONDA SITES" AND FOUND MANY OTHER SIMILAR INCIDENTS. I PURCHASED THIS CAR FOR SAFETY AND IN GOOD FAITH ; HONDA WAS PAID A FAIR PRICE. HONDA NEEDS TO DELIVER A CAR THAT WORKS AS ADVERTISED!!!

I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH MY AIRBAG STATING THERE IS AN AIRBAG ERROR IN MY CAR. I TOOK IT TO HONDA AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IN THEIR COMPUTER IT SHOWS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT. THEY TOLD ME IN ORDER TO CHECK IT THEY WOULD HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR APART AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY $300 UP FRONT JUST TO CHECK IT. THEY ALSO STATED THAT IT ISN'T COVERED IN THE WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH MY CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET IT FIXED BECAUSE I CANNOT AFFORD FOR THEM TO EVEN JUST LOOK AT MY CAR. WHAT IS THE POINT OF HAVING A 6 YR WARRANTY COVERAGE IF HONDA DOESN'T WANT TO COVER ANYTHING! OVER THE SUMMER I HAD A DRAINAGE LEAK THAT WAS COMING FROM THE ELECTRICAL FUSE IN MY CAR, GUESS WHAT HONDA DID NOT CARE!... THESE DAYS I THINK A BICYCLE WOULD BE THE SAFEST THING... LOL... SUFFICE IT TO SAY LIFE IS EXPENSIVE AND I DON'T THINK WE WILL BE GETTING A BREAK. THANKS HONDA FOR ONLY CARING ABOUT YOUR SALES & MONEY AND NOT CARING ABOUT YOUR CUSTOMERS SAFETY! LIVES! FAMILIES!

EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE HONDA CIVIC 2012, I'VE HAD PROBLEMS. THE FIRST PROBLEM IS THE AIR BAGS TURNING ON AND OFF. APPARENTLY, THE AIR BAGS TURN OFF IF A CHILD/SOMEONE IS UNDER 100 POUNDS. HOWEVER, ALL MY PREVIOUS EX'S WERE AROUND 110 POUNDS, SO THE AIRBAGS TURN OFF OR ON. I WOULD HATE TO HAVE ONE OF MY GIRLFRIENDS DIE BECAUSE OF A CRASH WHERE THE AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF. SECOND PROBLEM: THE CAR WILL NOT START MULTIPLE OF TIMES! I HAD MY BATTERY CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IT IS NOT THE ALTERNATOR, EITHER! APPARENTLY THE STEERING WHEEL PROBLEM OR THE SECURITY SYSTEM DRAINS THE BATTERY. I HAD TO BUY A RECHARGEABLE BATTERY AND JUMPER CABLES WHICH I CARRY IN MY TRUNK BECAUSE I AM TIRED OF CALLING MY INSURANCE COMPANY OR SECURITY AT THAT LOCATION TO JUMP START MY CAR. *TR

I WISH THAT WAS TRUE. WELL, ON MARCH 22, 2014 I WAS TAKING A FRIEND HOME AND NOTICED THAT MY HORN/AIRBAG AREA FELT WEIRD. I PULLED OVER TO LOOK AT IT AND SURE ENOUGH THERE WAS A CRACK/SLIT RIGHT WHERE THE SRS AIRBAG WRITING IS LOCATED.

I SAID HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY ASKING ME TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT? WHY WOULD IT CRACK OR SPLIT AND I WAS NOT IN ANY KIND OF ACCIDENT? I DON'T FEEL THAT I SHOULD PAY FOR IT. I ONLY HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 3 YEARS AND THIS HAPPENED... SAY I FIX IT FOR ROUGHLY $1000.00, IN ANOTHER 3 YEARS I WOULD PROBABLY HAVE TO FIX IT AGAIN. THIS DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME. WELL, THE TECHNICIAN SUGGEST YOU FIX IT BECAUSE IT'S DANGEROUS. WOW, REALLY??? I REALLY FEEL LIKE THIS CAR WAS A BAD BUY SINCE DAY ONE AND I TRULY BELIEVE THE HORN/AIRBAG IS A DEFECT.

I HAVE BEEN IN THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY FOR OVER 37 YEARS. I REPAIRED THEM AND HAVE WORKED FOR AN INSURANCE COMPANY FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS HAPPEN BEFORE, BUT I DO KNOW THAT THE SPLIT IS WHERE THE AIR BAG WOULD OPEN IF THERE WAS A DEPLOYMENT. SHE DID BUY THE CAR USED FROM ANOTHER LOCAL DEALER, BUT THERE IS NO INDICATION OF THIS CAR BEING IN A CRASH W/ AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. IT STARTED OUT SMALL AND HAS GROWN IN SIZE NOW. YOU CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE AIR BAG. SHE DID TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE SHE GETS IT SERVICE AND THEY CALLED AND TOLD HER THAT IT HAS BEEN CUT AND WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF IT. MY DAUGHTER IS 105 LBS AND NO WAY IS SHE GOING TO FORCE THIS TO SPLIT LIKE THIS SHE WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO DAMAGE THIS CAR WHICH IS WHAT THEY ARE INDICATING.

WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT (SHE WEIGHS 110 LBS), THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS WILL TURN OFF AND WE RECEIVE A WARNING AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS OR MINUTES THE WARNING DISAPPEARS. THIS WILL HAPPEN SOMETIMES UP TO 2 DOZEN TIMES IN AN HOUR TRIP - OTHER TIMES WE CAN GO A FEW WEEKS WITH NO WARNING AND THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG REMAINING ON. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THE SYSTEM IS OPERATING NORMALLY - EVEN THOUGH IN MY OWNERS MANUAL TELLS ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER IF THE WARNING OCCURS AND THE PERSON IN THE SEAT WEIGHS MORE THAN 29KGS. THE DEALER SAYS THIS PROBLEM IS COMMON WITH "SMALL" PEOPLE (NOTE: WHEN I SIT IN THE SEAT AT 165LBS - NO WARNINGS) AND SUGGESTED THAT MY GIRLFRIEND RIDE IN THE BACK SEAT. MY CONCERN IS THE SIDE AIRBAG WILL BE OFF WHEN NEEDED AND THE RANDOMNESS OF THE PROBLEM INDICATES A FAULT IN THE SYSTEM - WE HAVE TRIED TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS PATTERN TO THE WARNING SUCH IS SHE SITTING IN THE CENTER OF THE SEAT IS SHE MOVING/NOT MOVING ETC.

DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF MY DAUGHTER OWNING THE 2012 CIVIC SHE HAS ENCOUNTERED AIR BAG ISSUES. WHEN SHE RIDES IN THE PASSENGER SEAT, WITH HER HUSBAND DRIVING, THE AIRBAG LIGHT PERIODICALLY COMES ON, INDICATING THE AIRBAG IS TURNED OFF. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHE MAY NOT BE PROTECTED WITH THE AIRBAG DURING AN ACCIDENT, THEY TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE ON THREE DOCUMENTED TIMES OVER A PERIOD OF SEVERAL MONTHS. THIS EXCLUDES THE MULTIPLE TRIPS BACK WHEN PARTS HAVE BEEN ORDERED OR BEING SENT HOME WITHOUT SERVICE DUE TO TIME ISSUES. THE DEALER IS LARGO HONDA IN FLORIDA CITY, FLORIDA. EACH TIME SHE WENT, THEY CHANGED DIFFERENT COMPONENTS AND ON MULTIPLE TIMES ASKED HER TO STAY FOR A TEST DRIVE TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE REPRODUCED AND TO DETERMINE IF THE FAILURE OF A MAJOR SAFETY COMPONENT OF THE CAR HAD BEEN FIXED. EACH TIME THE SAFETY PROBLEM SURFACED EITHER ON THE RIDE HOME OR WITHIN A DAY OR TWO OF BEING IN FOR THE REPAIR. IN FACT THE LAST TIME THEY RETURNED THE CAR FOR SERVICE TO LARGO THEY REPLACED THE FULL PASSENGER SEAT WITHOUT RESOLVING THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT ANYONE RIDING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT DUE TO THE QUESTION IF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM IS FUNCTIONAL OR NOT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND WAS MAKING A TURN FROM COMING OFF A STOP LIGHT AND THE CARS IN FRONT OF ME WERE STOPPED TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY, I WENT TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND MY FOOT WENT TO THE FLOOR AND THE BRAKES NEVER KICKED IN. I SWERVED TO TRY AND MISS THE SUV IN FRONT OF ME BUT WAS NOT ABLE TO MISS THE SUV AND REAR ENDED HIM. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY ICE OR ANY FLUID ON THE ROAD THAT WOULD CAUSE ME TO LOOSE TRACTION. I HIT MOSTLY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHICH SAVED THE AIR BAGS FROM GOING OFF, HAD I HIT FRONT ON I AM POSITIVE THE AIR BAGS WOULD HAVE GONE OFF AS UPON IMPACT THE SCREENS ON THE INSIDE OF THE CAR TURNED RED AND READ "CHECK AIRBAGS" AND THEN MY CAR SHUT OFF AND HAZARD LIGHTS TURNED ON. THIS ACCIDENT HAPPENED 2/1 AND AM WAITING TO GET AN ESTIMATE FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY AS TO THE TOTAL DAMAGE AMOUNT IF MY CAR WILL BE TOTALED OUT OR NOT. *TR

HONDA CIVIC 2012 HAS A DEFECTIVE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR SYSTEM. MY SON WHO IS 14 YEARS OLD AND 102 LBS SITS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. WHEN HE MAKES ANY SHIFTS LIKE LEAN ON ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER, THE AUTO WARNS THE AIRBAG IS OFF. WE SEE THIS WARNING WITH BIG ILLUMINATION. WHEN THE PASSENGER CENTERS HIMSELF ON THE SEAT, THE WARNING GOES AWAY. THE LEAN CAN BE ON ANY SIDE. THE SLIGHTEST LEAN SUCH THAT HIS LEFT LEG IS NOT PUTTING ALL THE WEIGHT CAN TRIGGER THIS. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER AND HE SAYS THIS IS BY DESIGN. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO HONDA MOTOR COMPANY AND THEY ARE LOGGED A REPORT. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS WITH TOYOTA, LEXUS, HYUNDAI. EVEN WITH A YOUNGER KID IT DOES NOT TRIGGER AIRBAG WARNING. SO THIS IS HONDA CIVIC DEFECT WHICH CAN BE CATASTROPHIC IN ACCIDENT SITUATION WHERE THE PASSENGER WILL BE SHIFTED BY COLLISION. *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 7:45 A.M. I ARRIVED AT WORK AND TURNED LEFT INTO PARKING SPACE TO PARK. I WAS DRIVING A 2012 HONDA CIVIC, WHICH WAS LESS THAN ONE MONTH OLD. THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR, JUMPED THE PARKING BUMPER AND STRUCK A CONCRETE WALL. THE DRIVER'S AIR BAG DEPLOYED AND THE FRONT BUMPER WAS SCRAPED AND KNOCKED OUT OF PLACE. AMERICAN HONDA HAS INSPECTED THE CAR AND CLAIMS THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT BUT REFUSES TO RELEASE ITS REPORT TO ME. *TR

I WAS TRYING TO BACK INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH MY 8 MONTH OLD, 2012 HONDA CIVIC. AS I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL TO PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE AND BEFORE I COULD STEP ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AT A TREMENDOUS RATE OF SPEED, JUMPED A CURB AND WENT STRAIGHT INTO A BRICK BUILDING. THE CAR BOUNCED BACKWARDS ONTO THE PARKING LOT AND I WAS ABLE TO STEP ON THE BRAKE AND REGAIN CONTROL. THIS HAPPENED IN A MATTER OF A SPLIT SECOND WITH NO TIME TO JAM THE BRAKE ON AS THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR JOLTED TREMENDOUSLY, THE AIR BAG DID NOT GO OFF, BUT A SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH BOARD INDICATING "CHECK AIRBAG SYSTEM." *TR

HI, I WOULD LIKE TO BRING TO YOUR NOTICE IN REGARDS TO MY 2012 HONDA CIVIC CPE. THE ISSUE IS WITH PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS. IN JANUARY WHEN ONE OF MY FRIENDS 9 YR OLD SON SAT IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR 2 MILE RIDE, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SIGN SHOWED THE AIRBAGS ARE OFF. I CAN SEE THE AIRBAG LIGHT OFF ALL WHILE DURING MY DRIVE. I TRIED BY MAKING A ADULT SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT THEN THERE IS NO WARNING SIGN ABT THE AIRBAGS. IT HAPPENS TIMES WHEN EVER MY FRIENDS 9YR OLD SON SITS IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. I TOOK THE CAR TO T HE DEALER TO CHECK ON AIRBAGS, THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS OK. BUT AM NOT CONVINCED. BUT I FEEL CONCERNED ABT OTHER CARS, WHO DRIVE WITH KIDS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. KINDLY PLEASE CHECK WITH AIRBAGS RELATED TO THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. *TR
