Honda Accord: Airbag Service
Your airbag systems are virtually maintenance free, and there are no parts you can safely service.
However, you must have your vehicle serviced if:
An airbag ever inflates. Any airbag that has deployed must be replaced along with the control unit and other related parts. Any seat belt tensioner that activates must also be replaced.
Do not try to remove or replace any airbag by yourself. Thismust be done by an authorized dealer or a knowledgeable body shop.
The SRS indicator alerts you to a problem.
Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer as soon as possible. If you ignore this indication, your airbags may not operate properly.
If your vehicle has a moderate to severe impact. Even if your airbags do not inflate, your dealer should inspect the driver’s seat position sensor, the front passenger’s weight sensors, the front seat belt tensioners, and all seat belts and their anchors worn during a crash to make sure they are operating properly.
