Heys guys, I am about to buy a 2007 Honda accord for the wife and just have a question... When I went and looked at the car, the air bag light stays on and wouldn't shut off.. Does this mean the vehicle was in an accident and needs to be reset?

Also is this a good deal? 2007 Honda Accord EX Fully loaded with leather and nav for $6500. 225,000km

I would not buy a car with the air bag light on without knowing exactly why, and an estimate to have it fixed by a reputable shop.

I was recently looking at Accords, and I don't think that's a great deal, but that depends on how hard the air bag is to fix.
Air bags saved my brothers life, so I wouldn't drive a car without one that works.

What did the inspection report say about the airbag light?

Price is high for mileage, let alone the airbag light.

If you are lucky, it's probably just seat buckle. If you are not, probably failed sensor somewhere or failed airbag.

Is this expensive to fix?

and pretty sure on the Accords just like our old 07 Civic that light means the Airbag system is disabled. (Well at least that's what the dealer said..)

This answer will tell you all you need to know I suspect.
