Seat belt emergency retraction mode engaged when seat belt was not locked in. The seat belt retracted and almost strangulated a little boy. It had to be cut to release him or he may have died. We cannot find any information that provided any other recourse but to cut the seat belt. We do not believe the seat belt should have retracted in this manner when not buckled. We are not sure whether Honda would charge anything to repair this. The little boy however is still very upset.
Seatbelts will not retract. Driver's side seat belt does not retract correctly. Instead of door opening it presses forward. Seat belt replaced three times because belt continued to come out until maximum length and would not retract. Automatic sliding door was broke. The consumer is asking for replacement or refund for the vehicle.
