Motorized seat belts? Check for blown fuses?

Then give your favorite dealer a call. I think they're warrantied for "the life of the car".

Default I know the motorized part

is because I just had my motor replaced free of charge at the dealer. They had to order the part though.

i called my favorite dealership today and they informed me they could fix it enough to get it to the back position but that was all due to the fact of the seatbelt being motorized is considered a convince and not a safety must. therefore they dont cover the motor. so i guess its time to try something i have never done before. Wish me luck.

Default Search the board

there was a corporate # to call as well. Also you don't need them to get it to the back position. Next to the seat on the wall you'll see a button hole. Pop out the stopper and use a allen key to manually get it to the back position. Make sure the fuse is out or it might go forward again. You can check with Planet Honda in Union, NJ where I got my sb motor replaced for free.

Call Honda USA corporate customer service. I've heard that they can really lean on a dealer who fails to honor the warranty.

I even got free coffee, bagels, and a ride home since I didn't want to wait.
