ALL REAR SEAT BELTS TIGHTEN UP FOR NO REASON, CHOKING THE OCCUPANTS. THE MORE THE OCCUPANT MOVES THE TIGHTER THE BELT GETS. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED ABOUT THE PROBLEM, AND PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. DEALERSHIP SAID REPLACING SEAT BELT WILL NOT CORRECT PROBLEM, REDESIGNED SEAT BELT IS NEEDED. *AK

I DID NOT THINK MUCH OF MY DEFECTIVE SEATBELT SYSTEM UNTIL I SAW THAT HONDA ACCORDS HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED (97V220000) FOR THIS SYSTEM. MY PROBLEM IS THAT THE BELT LOCKS UP DURING NORMAL DRIVING. WHAT I MEAN IS IT LOCKS UP , HOLDING THE PERSON IN SECURELY-IN FACT TOO TIGHT SO THAT THE PERSON CANNOT MOVE WITHOUT GETTING HELD IN EVEN TIGHTER(LIKE A BOA CONSTRICTOR). SO SINCE THERE IS NO ACCIDENT OCURRING THE PASSENGER REMOVES THE SEAT BELT TO "FREE" THEMSELVES UP AND RE-FASTEN. WELL WHAT IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS AT THIS SAME TIME ? I DID GET THE BELT REPLACED IN A WEEK OR SO FOR FREE. SO I AM CONCERNED THAT MAYBEE OTHERS NEED TO GET CHECKED OUT. THANKS FOR THIS EASY SITE AND SERVICE. PROSPERITY TO YOU ALL.
