2002 Honda Civic seat belts problems

“The contact owns a 2002 Honda Civic. The contact stated while trying to fasten the driver’s side seat belt, the seat belt failed to release, not allowing the contact to fasten the seat belt. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The dealer was contacted and stated that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed. The manufacturer was contacted and also stated that the vehicle needed to be diagnosed. The failure mileage was 76,000.”

“SRS Light on for a while in Honda Civic, Contacted Dealer as this car was messed with by another dealership last year during light swsitch recall, so wanted only other Dealership to diagnose the issue with SRS but diagnosis alone is $157 and since my auto mechanic cannot read the diagnosis Honda has put or installed this restricted setting on the car. Seat belts and seat bekt sensors may be bad and seat belt cant stick on driver;s side, indicating a safety issue, Transmission exhibiting trouble and revs up when shifting, hard to shift gears with automatic gear shift problems. This should not be happening and brand new engine had to be competely installed with new engine blocks, and new radiator and watter pump need due to failing.”

“SINCE THE PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE THE SRS WARNING LIGHT HAS CONTINUOUSLY STAYED ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. MY FIRST THOUGHT OF COURSE WAS SOMETHING WAS EITHER WRONG WITH THE AIR BAG SYSTEM OR THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A COLLISION THAT LED TO THE AIR BAGS (WHICH ONES I HAVE NO CLUE) BEING DEPLOYED AND SO WHEN I SIGNED THE BILL OF SALE WITH THE DEALER I INQUIRED ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND WAS GIVEN A PAPER THAT STATES THE DEALER DID NOT KNOW AS WELL AS TO WHAYLT THE AIRBAG SYSTEM STATUS WAS BUT WAS TO BE EXCLUDED FROM LIABILITY TO THIS ISSUE BY MAKING UP THIS RIDICULOUS DOCUMENT. AFTER SEEING THE CAR FAX THE VEHICLE WAS THEN KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN IN A HEAD ON COLLISION IN 2018 AND SO THE DEALER LIED A BOUT NOT KNOWING ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THIS DEALER HAS BEEN TOTALLY NON COMPLIANT WITH THE PROCESS OF GETTING THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED LET ALONE FIXED AND I HAVE TRIED ON SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO TALK TO OWNER WITHOUT ANY CALLBACK OR ANSWERS. I KNLY GET HOUNDED ABOUT WHAT THEY BELIEVE TO BE THE BALANCE DUE ON THE VEHICLE THAT'S IT . JUST TODAY I RAN THE VIN INN THE DATABASE AND SURE ENOUGH THERE WAS AN OPEN RECALL ON THE AIR BAG SYSTWMM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS VIN AND…”

“I HAVE HAD MY SRS LIGHT ON SINCE I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN JULY OF 2017. MY SEAT BELTS DO NOT LOCK AT THE APPROPRIATE TIMES. I WAS ALSO INVOLVED IN A WRECK DRIVING IN RAIN ON THE INTERSTATE AND HYDROPLANED. I HIT A MEDIAN GOING ABOUT 50 MPH. NO AIR BAGS EJECTED FROM THE IMPACT. THE RESULTS OF THE IMPACT WERE A DENTED FENDER, REPLACEMENT OF THE DRIVER SIDE CONTROL ARM, NEW BALL JOINTS, AS WELL AS A DESPERATELY NEEDED TIRE ALIGNMENT. I FEEL IF THIS IMPACT WAS HARD ENOUGH TO BEND THE CONTROL ARM THEN MY AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE EJECTED, BUT I'M NO MECHANIC. THANK YOU.”

“AIRBAG (SRS) LIGHT CONSTANTLY APPEARS FOR FAULTY SEATBELT SENSOR. THE SEATBELT SENSOR IS CONSTANTLY FAILING DISPUTE GETTING IT SERVICED. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AS IT COULD RESULT IN THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING.”

“TAKATA RECALL: I ROLLED MY CAR ON MY WAY TO WORK IN AUGUST OF 2015. I HAD GOTTEN A LETTER 2 WEEKS PRIOR OF AN AIRBAG RECALL. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS BUT DUE TO HIGH VOLUME I WAS PUT ON A WAITING LIST. MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND MY DRIVER'S SEATBELT DIDN'T LOCK. I SUFFERED A FRACTURE TO THE BASE OF MY SKULL AND A TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY. I COULDN'T WORK AT ALL FOR 9 MONTHS AND COULD ONLY WORK 10-15 HOURS A WEEK FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER THAT. A WEEK AFTER THE CAR ACCIDENT I WAS FIRED FROM MY JOB WITHOUT SEVERANCE PAY AND I CALLED HONDA HEADQUARTERS AND THEY TOLD ME TO KEEP CHECKING FOR CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS. I WAS DRIVING ON A BACKROAD GOING 40 MPH AND I HIT SOME LOSE GRAVEL. I OVER REACTED AND TURNED THE WHEEL CAUSING ME TO MAKE A U TURN. I HIT MY BREAKS HARD TO STOP AND MAKE SURE MY SEATBELT WOULD LOCK. THE MOMENTUM OF STOPPING CAUSED MY HONDA TO ROLL. SINCE THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY MY FACE REPEATEDLY HIT THE STEERING WHEEL AND BECAUSE MY SEATBELT DIDN'T LOCK MY HEAD SMASHED THE ROOF OF THE HONDA REPEATEDLY.”
