My seatbelts dont like to retract back after I pull them out to use them. I have to help them back into the holder.

Is there anyway to fix this? Maybe greasing the innards of it up? Are they hard to get to?

InvaderTrax

Take it to the dealer. That should be covered under the lifetime seatbelt warranty

how far do they retract anyways? my seatbelts kinda sag from the holder after retracting and is almost in range to get caught on the door

How about the belt itself raveling(sp?) do you think that would be covered? And is that any honda dealership?

prelude_93vtec

manbearpig

I've read about their recall before.

prelude_93vtec

i got an appointment tomorow at 430 so ill keep everyone informed after i go

kroze

is that covered under warranty for any car?

prelude_93vtec

man im so mad at honda. i went there and theyre telling me that there is a 120 diagnostics fee. i was like 120 for seatbelts? they said that if there is any physical damage, itll be 120 for diagnostic fee and if there isnt, itll be covered under the warranty. so tomorow im guna check it outfor any physical damage and take some pics and then take it in again so i dont lose 120

prelude_93vtec

has anyone ever went to honda to get this specific problem fixed?

M@

I just don't know how anyone could physically damage an item that is protected on all sides, w/o leaving some exterior evidence.

prelude_93vtec

ya./ well i checked it out and took pictures before i send it in just incase they do some damage lol. ALL I WANT IIS MY SEATBELTS TO RERTRACT HONDA!!!!!

ConanDan

So...as the fourth owner(technicaly 3rd) I can take my '96 to any Honda dealer to have the spring replaced that retracts the seatbelt? Any paperwork needed?

ConanDan

bump again for an update?

prelude_93vtec

ya well i havent gone back to honda yet because i dont wanna pay 120 for seatbelt "diagnostics"

ConanDan

this is what I was wondering. Thats complete and utter bullshit.

mattsnooz

no ****...try a different dealership.

some honda's are ****** and others will suck your dicks

ConanDan

just called the local dealership, they said that they ARE covered under a lifetime warranty, and that there are absolutely no fees associated with getting them done, as long as it is a mechanical failure, which he said he is aware of the problem with them not retracting.

He said it would take a day for the parts to come in and that they would be able to have them in as soon as they came in. I think that this means I get all new seatbelts.

manbearpig

what if its raveling?

ConanDan

mine aren't, but you can ask them Im sure.

I think that only the mechanical part is wearing out, which it shouldn't be.

manbearpig

so are they trying to charge you for looking at them? did they fix anything? or have they even looked yet? <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by prelude_93vtec &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">ya well i havent gone back to honda yet because i dont wanna pay 120 for seatbelt "diagnostics"</TD></TR></TABLE>

ya i had an appointment with them and they said if it was physical damage i'd have to pay 120 bucks and i didnt wanna take the risk so i didnt do it. i took apart the side panels and saw no physical damage so i might take it in again.
