Seatbelt switch failed and turned on the "srs" dashboard indicator light and thus disables the airbag system the vehicle.
My 2000 Honda Accord gives me a problem with: 1st my passenger seat belt. It's extremly hard to fasten. 2nd my Accord stalles every time I atempt to take off from a complete stop. Also, there is a roaring bumping sound comming from around my exaust system.
Vehicle air bag light remained illuminatedwhile driving. Vehicle was taken to the dealer on two separate occasions, and they could not duplicate the problem. Vehilce was taken back to the dealer for the third time, and they were informed that the problem was due to the seat belt buckle need to be replaced. Please provide any further information.
Seat belts on both sides of front have opened by themselves after seeming to be latched; first time was driver's side, I took it to local dealer who "cleaned" it even though I saw no dirt, seems to be working; but now the passenger side is doing the same thing, opening by itself during driving; again took it to local dealer, they offered to "clean" it again but I said no, I did not see any dirt and they told me that if someone had spilled a drink on it the seat belt would not work any more; I advised north american Honda (tina at 1-800-999-1009, ext. 118088, case number n-012001-10-18-00512), they offered to replace seat belt with new one but of same design and I said no. To sum up, belts appear to be latched but are not, and I did not see any dirt or other barriers, and furthermore even if someone did actually spill a drink I cannot imagine that would cause a seatbelt (twice now) to fail to stay closed. I am convinced this design is not safe.
Consumer stated the drivers seatbelt would no longer lock into place, the dealer replaced the latch.
