Seat belts

[JGTC]

My automated seatbelts stopped working all of a sudden but the passenger side works after a while of leaving the door open. Any ideas what could it be?

Take it to the dealership.
They are required to fix/replace it.

it depends what broke. they arent required to fix everything. just what was recalled.

i would take the oppotunity to convert to the 92-93 manual belt setup. its better

I believe the auto seat belts were recalled

[Jonas]

not everything involving the belts. i cant find where i read it but not everything was recalled. its still worth a trip to the dealer to see if the part that failed is recalled. converting is still better. looks better, works better, never brakes

1990 HONDA ACCORD -- The front safety belt buckle release buttons can break. These red plastic release buttons are marked "press." If a button breaks, pieces can fall into the buckle assembly causing the buckle to operate improperly.

The safety belts would not provide adequate protection to an occupant in a vehicle crash.

Owners should promptly check the condition and operation of both front safety belt buckles. Carefully inspect the red release button for any breaks or cracks. Check that both buckles are operating properly by inserting each latch plate into its buckle, tug on the belt to make sure the latch is securely locked, then press the release button. The latch plate should pop out of the buckle when the button is pressed. If either release button shows any sign of breakage or cracking, or if either buckle fails to operate properly, promptly contact your authorized Honda/Acura dealer to schedule an appointment to have the buckle replaced or repaired, free of charge. The manufacturer is developing a remedy designed to prevent the failure of the buttons that are not currently broken.
