HONDA 2003 Pilot - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 59)

Together, airbags and
seat belts provide the best
protection.
Tampering could cause
the airbags to deploy, possibly
causing very serious injury.
If rain or spilled water
soaks into a seat-back, it can
prevent the side airbag system
from working properly.
See page for further information
and precautions relating to your
airbags.
Your front and side airbag systems
are virtually maintenance-free, and
there are no parts you can safely
service. However, you must have
your vehicle serviced if:
Any
airbag that has deployed must be
replaced along with the control
unit, automatic seat belt
tensioners, and other related parts.
Do not try to remove or replace
any airbag by yourself. This must
be done by a Honda dealer or a
knowledgeable body shop.
Take your vehicle to
an authorized Honda dealer as
soon as possible. If you ignore this
indication, the airbags might not
inflate when you need them.
Improperly
replacing or covering front seat-
back covers can prevent your side
airbags from inflating during a
collision.
