2002 Honda Accord Seat Belts Problems

FEW YEARS AGO I HAD PROBLEMS WITH SEAT BELT CODES POPPING UP. TOOK CAR TO ONE OF THE DEALERS (DO NOT REMEMBER WHICH ONE..LOST MY RECEIPT/PAPER WORK) AND THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THE PROBLEM. AFTER THAT "FIX" THE REMINDER LIGHT AND ALARM FOR SEAT BELTS DIDN'T LIGHT UP AT ALL (ON A DASH BOARD), ASKED TECHNICIANS ABOUT IT AT THAT TIME AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS PROBABLY THE LIGHT/ALARM NEEDS TO BE CHANGING AND THAT IT IS NOT A BIG DEAL. IT HAD BEEN FEW YEARS SINCE AND WHENEVER I DRIVE THE CAR I AM UNEASY ABOUT IT: IT SOMEHOW DISTURBS ME WHENEVER I TURN THE CAR ON OR DRIVE IT. BELT (DRIVER'S SIDE) SOMETIMES DOESN'T GET TIGHT(ER?)EN AT ALL WHEN I BRAKE. I READ THAT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND USUALLY HONDA MAKER REQUIRES TO FIX IT AND IT IS AT NO CHARGE. THIS YEAR I TALKED TO ONE OF THE BALLISE HONDA (WEST SPRINGFIELD) DEALERSHIPS' TECHNICIAN (INFORMATION/CONVERSATION WAS NOT ENTERED IN THE COMPUTER) AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT IS NOT A BIG A DEAL (THE LIGHT/ALARM SOUND IS NOT ON WHEN BELTS ARE NOT ENGAGED) AND IF I WANT TO FIX IT I WOLD HAVE TO PAY. I TOLD HIM WHEN THEY WENT OFF : AFTER THE PROBLEM I HAD FEW YEARS THAT WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED. SO..I AM CURIOUS IS IT A SAFETY ISSUE COVERED BY HONDA OR IS IT JUST IN MY HEAD SOMETHING THAT IS NOT IMPORTANT AS PER TECHNICIAN. I DO NOT REMEMBER THE DATE WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY (I THINK) JUST TURN THAT SIGNAL/ALARM OFF ...BECAUSE BEFORE I TOOK MY CAR TO THEM ALL WAS ON AND WORKING PROPERLY EXCEPT FOR THE LIGHTS POINTING TO THE ISSUE. SO,NOW I AM PUTTING PRESENT DAY (BELOW WHERE IT REQUIRES TO PUT THE DATE WHEN FIRST IT HAPPENED BECAUSE I DO NOT REMEMBER THAT DATE)... BECAUSE THE FORM WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO PROCEED.

I HAVE NO SEAT BELT LIGHT AND MY SRS LIGHT WILL NOT GO OFF

PASSENGERS SIDE SEATBELT IS LOCKED AND WILL NOT ALLOW PASSENGERS TO BUCKLE UP

I STARTED MY CAR ONE MORNING AND THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD I T TESTED VIA COMPUTER AND IT SHOWED DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT BUCKLE SENSOR, HONDA ON 500 YONKERS AVE, YONKERS WILL NOT REPAIR AT NO COST, AMERICAN HONDA EXPLAINED THAT AS WELL TO ME ON CASE # N012015-07-2000208, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND AS IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM , MY HONDA BOOK READS SEAT BELTS AND COMPONENTS HAVE A LIFETIME WARRANTY AND THE BUCKLE WITH SENSOR IS A COMPONENT AND THEREFORE MY SRS STAYS LIT, IT ALSO READS THAT IF IT DOES STAY LIT MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY, CAN YOU DO ANYTHING TO HELP ME WITH THIS PROBLEM MA 10/25/15

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SRS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY CONFIRMED A SEAT BELT MALFUNCTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 139,358 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 157,000.

MY 8 YEARS OLD GRANDSON BECAME ENTANGLED IN THE SEAT TRYING TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. THE SEAT BELT LOCKED AND HE WAS UNABLE TO MOVE. HE MANAGED TO SQUIRM OUT BUT HIS FOOT GOT CAUGHT IN THE BELT. THE BELT TWISTED AND I WAS UNABLE TO LOOSEN IT WORKING ON IT FOR 15 TO 20 MINUTES. THE BELT BECAME TIGHTER EACH TIME I TRIED TO RELEASE IT. HIS FOOT BECAME RED AS THERE WAS NOT ANY CIRCULATION TO HIS RIGHT FOOT. I ENDED UP RETURNING HOME AND CUTTING THE SEAT BELT IN ORDER TO RELEASE HIM. THE SEAT BELT IS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN THE BACK. I HAVE NOT FIXED THE BELT AND FEEL LIKE HONDA SHOULD REPLACE THE BELT FREE OF CHARGE. I HAVE NOTIFIED HONDA. HOPEFULLY THEY WILL REPLACE THE SEAT BELT FREE OF CHARGE. *KB

PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE'S SEAT BELTS. *MR WHEN THE VEHICLE GOES OVER BUMPS, LARGE OR SMALL, THE SEATS BELTS TIGHTEN, WHICH PREVENTED THE PASSENGER FROM MOVING. AS THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE WARMED UP, THE SEAT BELT WOULD WORK INTERMITTENTLY, BUT WHEN COOL OR COLD, THEY WOULD TIGHTEN UP SO HARD THAT THE PASSENGER WOULD BECOME UNABLE TO BREATHE. *SCC
