The Driver's side seat belt would sound and feel like it latched but then when pressure was applied to the seat belt, the belt would unlatch. This happens at least once a day when driving. Having a seatbelt become unlatched while driving is incredibly unsafe and troublesome. I brought the car to the dealer and they confirmed that the seatbelt became unlatched when they tested the phenomenon. I also looked it up on Honda's recall list and it looks like CR-Vs from 2017-2020 have had this problem and many have been recalled. However, it seems as though my vehicle was not part of the recall.

I received notification of the 2 seat belt recalls on my 2018 Honda CRV. I promptly made an appointment with my local dealership, Honda of Clear Lake in League City, Texas to take for repair. I made arrangements to work from home for the day since I would not have my vehicle for my lengthy commute to work and made arrangements for my neighbor to follow me to the dealership and bring me home so I could leave my car for the day. Upon arrival, I was informed my car would need to remain with them for at least 2 days to complete this safety recall. I cannot be without my vehicle for 2 days and cannot believe it takes that long to make this repair. This is not rebuilding an engine. This safety problem is not my fault or something I did. Honda should be required to complete the repairs in a half day - full day at most. Otherwise, unsafe situations will continue to be on the road since people work and do not have 2 days to be without a car especially in a city with long commutes and no viable public transportation from where I live to where I work. This dealership is a nightmare and should be held accountable for not making recall repairs in a timely manner.

I purchased my Honda vehicle in Canada and legally imported it to the United States. I was contacted by my Canadian dealership and advised that there is a recall related to the seat belts. Honda describes the recall int he following terms: "Due to an improperly manufactured seat belt buckle channel, the driver and front passenger seat belt buckles may fail to latch, or may unlatch unexpectedly. An unlatched seat belt buckle may increase the risk of potential injury in the event of an accident. To resolve this issue, the affected vehicles will have both front seat belt buckles serviced by either replacing thebutton or, in some cases, the replacing the buckle assembly." The Canadian recall number is P27/P28. There is an identical U.S. recall listed on the federal safety agency website as "Part 573 Safety Recall Report, 23V‑158." The service Department at Sheehy Honda in Alexandria, Virginia told me they could not do the recall and they gave me conflicting information about what I need to do to get the recall work done at their dealership. One week has passed and their Service Manager has not responded to an email I sent seeking information on how to get the recall work done. I don't feel comfortable driving around with this defect, which endangers my family's safety, and I don't think Honda is following through on its obligation to complete the recall work.
