I would take it back to the place where they installed the CD-player.
Perhaps they disabled the air bags when they did the work and forgot to
enable them again.

Changing the transmission fluid is part of scheduled maintenance, and it
is critical that this is don if you want you transmission to last. If it
is time to replace the timing belt, that is also critical. If your
engine is an interference engine (most Honda engines are) you risk
serious engine damage if the timing belt should break. Was it the CV
joint or the boot for the CV joint that needs replacement?
