AIR BAGS
In November 2019 my key fob became inoperable and I called a local Conicelli Honda dealer in Conshohocken, PA to see if they could replace it. They said they could replace it so I took my 2007 Honda Accord there to purchase a new key fob. When I spoke to the service person she informed me that I would have to get the airbag recall issue addressed also and that it would be no charge to have that done. So I agreed. Now years later I'm still receiving the airbag recall notices. Can you help me?

AIR BAGS
I have taken my car for the airbag recalls in the past. A few weeks ago, after taking the car to a car wash, the airbag icon came on my dash. I had it put on a diagnostic machine and it showed AIR BAG:FRONTAL:DRIVER SIDE:INFLATOR MODULE. The local Honda dealership will not fix it unless I pay out of my pocket. I don't feel like I should have to pay for a repair and I'm concerned that the airbag won't deploy in an accident.

The doors won’t unlock even though the key fob works (panic button goes off, headlights double flash when clicking lock button), however the door won’t unlock with the key fob button or the key itself, thereby leaving a person stranded outside in the cold in a potentially unsafe area. There is no way to get into the car in this situation. Very dangerous as my teenager was locked outside the car at 10:30 at night in 19 degree weather in a dark parking lot.

Airbag light is on and caused a failed safety inspection. Dealer told me the SRS unit/controller/module needed to be replaced and will cost ~ $1k even though there is a bulletin (TSB 20-015) that a Honda representative said covers the problem. The Honda rep told this to the dealership Service Director on the phone with me on the phone with them, but now the dealership is telling me it isn't covered and they can't get the part, so this seems like an important safety issue - particularly if the part isn't available, suggesting many others are having the same problem - so maybe a recall is needed for this? I need to pass safety inspection in Virginia, but can't, and I'm not sure what to do. Thanks for any help. I called, but waited on hold for a long time and was then disconnected. Would like to hear back by email and phone call: [XXX] INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

My power steering hose has 3 holes in it that not only makes it hard to turn on the road, but causes a huge spray of fluid all over the engine and covers everything under the hood. Then while I’m driving everything tries to burn off and it creates a horrible smell and on some cases, smoke.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Engine acceleration while braking. After a short 15 min trip I returned home and entered driveway which is sloped down hill. Depressed brake and engine RPM went from about 1000 to over 3000 RPM. Released brake for a sec and tapped accelerator. RPM went back down and brakes returned to normal. I thought that loose carpet on mat may have interfered with accelerator and I removed it. About 5 hr later I was travelling for about 20 min on 55 mph highway and approached a red light. I depressed brake and slowed down to 5-10 mph. Engine rpm again went up to 3000-4000 RPM, I put automatic transmission in neutral tapped accelerator and RPM returned to idle 800. This again occurred for 5 more times before I returned home. When I pulled into my drive way I slowly reached the end and put the car in park, set the emergency brake, and let it idle for about 30 sec. I then depressed the brake a little and the RPM increased from 800 to just over 1000. I then depressed the brake harder and the RPM shot up to about 4000. At no time was the accelerator depressed or moved. I shut off the ignition and attempted to duplicate the error but could not. I also checked all the vacuum lines from the brake booster for leaks. There were no warning lights and a scan did not indicate any trouble codes. I have not brought it to a dealer as I am seeing if I can reproduce and troubleshoot the problem. I am an engineer and have done all my auto service and repairs for close to 50 years. This includes rebuilding engines, transmissions (manual/auto), and electrical troubleshooting. I can assure you this is not due to floor mat interference or incorrect application of pedals.
