2017 Honda ACCORD: complaints, problems and recalls

I BOUGHT 2017 HONDA ACCORD AND WITHIN A DAY THERE WERE 2 AIR BAG SIGNS CAME UP. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID WHENEVER YOU COME THIS SIDE BRING THE CAR. THEY CHECKED THE CAR THAT WEEKEND AND FOUND A FAULTY SRS MODULE. THEY REPLACED IT, BUT HOW A NEW CAR HAVE A FAULTY SRS MODULE? HOW QUALITY CONTROL DEPT. STAMPED IT WITHOUT CHECKING IT? WHAT IF SOMETHING WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME?

I AM TRYING TO BUY A CAR, BUT WHEN I TEST DRIVE THEM, I HAVE NECK PAIN BECAUSE THE HEADRESTS REACH SO FAR FORWARD. IF YOU LOOK AT THE SEATS FROM THE SIDE, ONE IS FORCED TO SIT IN A HUNCHED, CURVED SHAPE, WITH ONE'S HEAD PROJECTED FORWARD, WHICH IS HARDLY COMFORTABLE OR HEALTHY.
