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 front passenger safety belt does not always securely "latch" into the buckle. Within the past several months, the seatbelt has "unlatched" without warning on the person sitting in the front passenger seat. I've figured out that after inserting the safety belt into the buckle, it'll "stay secure" if I push down on it one more time until I hear a solid click. I have not had to do this in the past, but I am very concerned for any passengers that may be seated in my car while in motion. Those unaware of the "double click" trick (to get it "safely secured") are definitely at the highest risk of injury...they assume that when they insert the safety belt into the buckle (and hear the initial click) they are appropriately protected by the seat belt. However, several passengers have been alarmingly surprised to have their seatbelt "automatically" unlatch itself while the vehicle is in motion! although this problem does not occur every time the belt is inserted into the buckle, it still causes me great concern for the safety of those sitting in that front passenger seat!

Front seat belts do not retract when unbuckled. Ratchet mechanism seems flimsy.

Rear left and right side seatbelt buckle will become undone, causing css to become loose, resulting in loss of protection.
- King, NC, USA
Vehicle struck rear of another vehicle, brakes were locked at 40 mph, seat belt did not lock, allowing drivers face to hit steering wheel, air bags did not deploy, Honda contacted, and has shown no interest in investigating or checking the car. Stated to take it to the dealer after it was repaired, and if anything was wrong, they would replace parts.
