2024 Honda Pilot Airbags Problems

Your middle passenger seat belt buckle sensor isn't working correctly — it displays a warning message and chime saying the seat belt is unfastened even when it's properly buckled, especially when you turn left. You've also noticed occasional messages that the airbags are disabled, which may be caused by the same faulty sensor. The fix will likely involve replacing or recalibrating the seat belt tension sensor in the middle seat.

While driving in the city a warning came up on the dash stating "Supplemental restraint system problem. See your dealer." and the red seat belt/air bag symbol turned on and remained on for the remainder of the drive home (about 45 min at variable speed). As soon as I got home I turned the car off and back on and the warnings disappeared. I drove the vehicle for another 30 minutes and the warnings did not re-appear. However, I noticed that the seat belts used to tighten / lock while the vehicle was in D (drive) but they no longer do. I also tried performing a hard stop in a safe area to see if the belt would lock while my body was jolted forward but it did not. The vehicle had 6 passengers when the warning first came on and all of us experienced loose belts. This makes me concerned about the functionality of the restraint system, especially in the event of a crash.
