Air Bags
The air bag light comes on and stays on intermittently for no apparent reason. Many, many 2005 honda odyssey owners are having the same issue. For some reason manufacture year 2005 was not included in the most recent recall? We got the initial letter telling us our air bags would be a recall item in the summer, 2014 but then never received a follow-up letter. Upon investigation on my part i found out that my model…

If a weight comparable to a child (such as school bag or groceries or a box) is placed in front passenger seat and seat belts are not buckled, air bags are disabled and the indicator light on the dashboard is illuminated. Even after removing weight the light stays illuminated. Subsequent passenger sitting and seat buckling…

The brakes on this car never worked well. They screeched and squealed and were slow to respond. Despite many trips to the dealer and mechanics, they insisted nothing was wrong. I rear ended someone coming down a hill because i was unable to brake. The difference in speed must have been at least 35 mph. My airbags did not go off. I hit the seatbelt way too hard. The car in front of me did have his airbags go off. *tr

This vehicle was not involved in an incident. I wanted to file a complaint regarding the safety feature of the airbags. The srs light remains illuminated on the dashboard. I noticed a recall on other 2005 odysseys and wanted to see if other 2005 odyssey owners have experienced the same issue. This is a safety issue that i take seriously and should not have to pay to have fixed. Thank you for your attention to this…

The airbag dash light came on and stayed on. I took my minivan to the honda annapolis dealership service department where they ran diagnostics. They told me nothing was wrong with my airbags. They did find, however, that the driver's seatbelt needed to be replaced, so they did so free of charge. They weren't able to tell me why the airbag light came on, and told me to be grateful, as if there was something wrong…

The air bag light stays on frequently, but not all the time. I noticed honda odyssey 2003 and 2004 model are currently under investigation for air bag problems including air bag warning lights illuminating. My odyssey is 2005 model and is having the similar lighting problem. Can the agency also investigate the year 2005 model please? I am very concerned the potential problems it may lead to. There has been no…

The air bag malfunction light comes on sporadically- looking on line i see there was a recall in 2005 for a malfunctioning airbag sensors in the 2005 odyssey - but ours did not get the recall notice - it looks like there are several other 2005 odyssey owners that also currently having this issue- the 2005 recall on this should have been more comprehensive so we would not be getting malfunction warning. *tr

Air bag indicator light on and off. After two years the light on most of the time and it went off automatically for a while then came back on. I call to american honda motor inc. They don't want to create a recall for that because that will be different component fail in that case. They just want to create the recall for each component break down. They not cover the repair cost and depend on which component under…
