NHTSA Recall History

1996: Certain ball joints can wear out prematurely and, in worst case, would separate, causing front suspension to collapse.

thats kinda scary

Transmission noise: The transmission grinds when shifting into fifth gear due to mismanufactured shift fork. (1992-95)

So Honda will fix all of this for free? That would be awesome.

1- My boys seatbelts are so worn they are starting to shred, can he still get this covered?

2- Grinds going into 5th gear but I thought it was because the tranny synchros were shot

3- Will they still honor this even though he has a H22 swapped in his 4th Gen?

Guys, the ONLY way they will replace your seatbelt is if it doesn't retract. Just because they are frayed does not mean they will replace them. If they are frayed AND they don't retract, then they will replace them.

As for the grinding issue, it is NOT covered under an extended warranty. It is JUST a common problem.

Do you have to be the original owner to get the seatbelts fixed?

Doubt it. Recall is a recall, safety issue. You do have to be the owner of the car though.

The local Honda dealer replaced both of my front seat belts for free because they were frayed. Both of them retracted fine.

"Also, the button that keeps the seatbelt tongue from sliding down breaks." What part of the seatbelt is that referring too?

"Seatbelts/safety: Seatbelts may not retract or may retract slowly. Also, the button that keeps the seatbelt tongue from sliding down breaks. The belts should be serviced under the Honda Lifetime Seat Belt Limited Warranty. (1992-96)

Steering problems: The car may drift to the right on flat roads due to a faulty spool valve in the power-steering system. (1992-93)"

My '92 Si has both of these probelms...
- If I bring my car to a Honda Dealer, will they fit both of these problems for free??

Secondly, what exactly do I say to them, "I'm Rick James... FIX MY BELTS, BITCH!?"
(Chappelle Show, anyone?)
But seriously... What am I supposed to tell them?

Thanks for the help guys. Peace.

P.S. - Can I get Honda to fix the security flaw in the in the 4th Gen. Passenger Side Power Door Locks too?

I thought a lot of you guys worked in dealerships or have freinds who do. All of that information and more is available in ISIS
