My driver seat belt keeps unlatching . It happens to often. I know there was a previous recall for it but everytime I look it up it doesn’t show on the website. I previously reported here I think last year. Also when shows as an error on the obd reader. As a failing seat belt system recall. My insurance company shows the driver air bag is recalled but again when I look it up here . You list no information about these recalls and it’s scary since both are critical.

My 2001 honda odyssey just recently shows that the red SRS light stays on continually while driving the vehicle. The owners manual indicates that some part of the safety restraint system is malfunctioning. This may include the air bag or seat belt tensioning system.

The drivers side seat belt on my 2001 honda odyssey has become frayed on one side. I am afraid this has compromised its strength and safety. Honda refused to address the problem.

The middle row seat belt on the drives side has broken/malfunctioned two times in under two months!! It has been taken to the dealership both times for repair. My 51/2 year old daughter has been in the seat both times when it has happened. The seat belt loses tension (feeds all the way out onto her lap) and then locks. We are unable to fix it on our own. Each time we take it to the dealer and they have to replace the entire seat belt.
