2000 Honda Accord seat belts problems

“The seatbelt SRS system light was previously identified as defective by American Honda. When my notification light came on I immediately took vehicle to Honda Dealership for repair. I have been forced to do so multiple time during my vehicle ownership. Currently the SRS light has come back on yet Honda refuses to fully and completely repair the cause. I fear for my safety and others should an unfortunate accident were to occur. I reported the issue to American Honda. Incident report number 12902734.”

“HAD DRIVER SEAT BELT BUCKLE REPLACED 6/11/20 AS SRS LIGHT CAME ON. UNAWARE THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL, WORK NOT DONE AT HONDA DEALER, PAID OUT OF POCKET. CODE 9-3. EXACT SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN IN EARLY JUNE 2018 WHERE SRS LIGHT CAME ON. WENT TO HONDA TO PURCHASE PART, LEARNED SEVERAL DAYS LATER THERE WAS AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THE DRIVER SEAT BELT BUCKLE ISSUE. HONDA DEALER DID NOT ADVISE ACTIVE RECALL FOR ISSUE AT TIME PART WAS PURCHASED. PURCHASED PART, LEARNED OF RECALL, HONDA DEALER REPAIRED AT NO CHARGE TO ME. EIGHTEEN MONTHS LATER, EXACT SAME PROBLEM AND CODE. NO OPEN RECALL AT THIS TIME. CLEARLY THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE/SENSOR FAILING SO THE AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY. I AM NOT GOING TO PAY AGAIN TO HAVE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED. RECEIVED SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA AND I AM ON A WAITING LIST TO GET THE AIRBAG ISSUE RESOLVED AS THERE IS AN OPEN RECALL FOR THE AIRBAGS BUT THE SEAT BELT PROBLEM IS ONGOING. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. STARTED CAR, SRS LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED, HAD CODE READ AND LEARNED IT WAS THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT BUCKLE THAT HAS GONE BAD AGAIN.”

“THE "SRS" LIGHT IS ON IN THE DASHBOARD. IT HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT LATCH IS FAULTY. IT IS DANGEROUS TO RIDE A PASSENGER IN THIS VEHICLE FOR FEAR THAT THE SEAT BELT WOULD NOT WORK PROPERLY IF THE VEHICLE WAS IN AN ACCIDENT OR JUST HIT BY ANOTHER DRIVER. PLEASE ADVISE ON THE REPAIR PROCEDURES. THE PIXELS ON THE MILEAGE AND MILES DRIVEN IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THE MILEAGE AND MILES DRIVES NUMBERS CANNOT BE READ.”

“"TAKATA RECALL" SRS LIGHT HAS REMAINED CONSISTENTLY ON IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SINCE 10/20/16. I WAS TOLD BY THE GARAGE THAT SERVICES MY CAR THAT I NEED TO HAVE MY AIRBAG REPLACED. THE LIGHT HAD COME ON AFTER I STARTED MY CAR, AND IT HAS NOT SHUT OFF SINCE.”

“TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH OVER POTHOLES OR BUMPS IN THE ROAD, THE SEAT BELT RATCHETING SYSTEM TIGHTENED UP THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT. THE SEAT BELT FAILED AND WOULD NOT READJUST TENSION UNTIL UNHITCHED AND RETURNED BACK TO THE START POSITION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.”

“THE ARM BROKE INTO ON MY CAR. THE WELDING WAS BAD. ALSO THE CLEAR COAT LOOK AWFUL, IT WAS PAINTED CHEAPLY AND , IT A EYE SORE. I JUST WANT IT FIXED . I LOVE MY CAR, BUT SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH RECALLS.”
