What 295 owners told NHTSA about the 2011 Honda Accord Fhev

WHEN IT RAINS THE WATER INTRUDES INSIDE, WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED TWICE AND THROUGH THE ROOT-CAUSE IT WAS FOND THAT THE SOURCE IS NOT WINDSHIELD. CLOGGING OF THE VINYL/PLASTIC TRIM PIECES THAT RUN ON THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE CAUSES THE ISSUE. NOW AT EVERY SINGLE RAIN OR SNOW, I CAN SEE THE CURTAIN AIRBAG IS SOAKED IN THE WATER. I AM SURE THAT THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT WATERPROOF.

SIDE AIR BAG OFF, WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER WITH ME IN FRONT

NHTSA ODI 10852605

I HAD AN SRS LIGHT ON AT 44000 MILES AND TOOK IT INTO HONDA, FIGURE IT WAS A SAFETY THING THEY WOULD TAKE CARE OF IT. HONDA WANTED TO CHARGE ME 100 DOLLARS FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. I TOLD THEM NO. THEY THEN TOLD ME THEY WOULD TALK TO HONDA TO WAVE FEE. HONDA PAID FOR DIAGNOSTIC CAME BACK WITH CODE INDICATING CABLE REEL ISSUE. HONDA SAID IT WOULD BE 545 DOLLARS TO REPLACE AND IF IT DIDN'T GET REPLACED IT MAY CAUSE ISSUES WITH AIRBAG INFLATOR AND MAY NOT INFLATE IN A CAR ACCIDENT. I TOLD THEM THIS WAS A HONDA SAFETY PROBLEM AND THEY SHOULD REPLACE IT. THE NEWEST ROUND OF RECALLS WERE FOR ACCORDS 2008-2010. I GUESS I WILL JUST WAIT AROUND UNTIL MY CAR EVENTUALLY GETS RECALLED UNTIL THEN CROSS MY FINGERS I DON'T GET IN AN ACCIDENT.
