Honda Cr-v Seats Safety Report | Dec 12, 2003
Reported on Dec 12, 2003
| I PURCHASED MY 2002 HONDA CR-V USED FROM A LOCAL HONDA DEALER. THE DRIVER SEAT ROCKED BACK AND FORTH FROM THE DATE OF MY PURCHASE IN 2003. A MECHANIC AT THE HONDA DEALER ON A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE SAID THAT IT WAS BROKEN, AND THAT IT WOULD BE A $300 PLUS REPAIR. I HAVEN'T DONE IT, BECAUSE I FIGURED FOR A CAR ONLY HAVING 20,000 MILES ON IT SHOULD BE UNDER WARRANTY, AND THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT IT WHEN IT WENT THROUGH THE CERTIFIED WARRANTY PROGRAM. MY SEAT BELT ON THE DRIVER SEAT WON'T LOCK, UNLESS I REPEATEDLY PUT THE CLIP IN AND OUT, AND THEN IT WILL FINALLY ENGAGE AFTER 8 TO 10 TRIES. AGAIN, IT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED IT, AND I BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN CARE OF IN THE CERTIFIED WARRANTY PROGRAM. OF COURSE, NOW IT IS 10 YEARS LATER, AND I ONLY HAVE 80,000 MILES ON THE CAR, AND SINCE THESE THINGS WERE PRESENT WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR, I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THESE ISSUES SHOULD NOT HAVE EXISTED. IT APPEARS THAT THESE ARE ISSUES THAT MANY OTHER HONDA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING AS WELL, SO THAT WOULD SUGGEST MANUFACTURER DEFECT. *TR | |
