2 Seats problem

Failure Date: 09/29/2010

My power assisted driver's seat bracket that attaches the seat bottom to the seat base has fractured because of the weld condition of bracket. My seat weld at the left front corner of the seat bottom now causes the seat to rock with no stability. The Honda dealership will not honor the pe02072 stating that my VIN no. Is not in the range and that the time period has expired. This is a dangerous weld failure that odi should hold Honda accountable.

Failure Date: 05/23/2003

Seat frame bracket failure on power assisted driver's seat. The left front corner of of the seat bottom bracket failed, and appear to be due to the weld condition of the bracket. Under acceleration the silt tilts backwards. Can't believe the NHTSA just closed an investigation on 3/2003 this issue and decided it did not warrant the use of agency resources, I weigh 190 pounds, and do not jump into and out of my seat, it is clearly a manufacturing safety defect.

15 Seats problem

Failure Date: 04/29/1999

The left front corner of the seat has about a half-inch of vertical slack in it. (you can move the left-front corner up that much with your hand. ) this allows the seat to rock back (in a rocking motion) when pushing against the seat back. This happens when getting in the car, changing positions in the seat, and even under hard acceleration. The dealer replaced the seat track under warranty. That didn't solve it. The service representative at the dealer told me this was not an uncommon problem. It started as soon as we got the car (purchased new) and it's never stopped.

16 Seats problem

Passenger seat tracks wouldn't latch correctly allowing the entire seat to slide backward when accelerating from a complete stop smashing the rear passengers legs. Component was replaced under warranty after second time to dealer about the problem.
