About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
The passenger side front seat in this vehicle is so loose it rocks back and forth and from side to side. It feels as if the seat is going to collapse in the event of an accident and injure the person in this seat, as well as any passenger seated behind it, in rear passenger seat. I have had the seat inspected by Acura dealership, and sent multiple letters to both Acura and Honda motor co. They claim this is a normal "characteristic" of this passenger seat in this car (make/model yr). The service manager at the dealer indicated that the problem may have something to do with the weight sensor on the passenger side air bag control (the driver seat is stable and fully supportive). No other car seat that I have ever sat in feels this loose and has this much motion to it. It feels really unsafe and makes the passenger in this seat experience motion sickness. Can you please conduct an investigation into whether or not this passenger side front seat can hold up in the event of an accident?
