2004 Honda Accord has an intermittent problem with the drivers seat belt. A contact in the seat belt latch is causing the Air Bag system to malfunction. My local Honda dealership stated that the air bag will not function with this problem. An internet search shows many Honda's with the same problem. This problem in the seat belt disables the air bag and also disables the seat belt warning light which warns the driver if the seat belt is not latched. The Honda warrantee states that "any Honda seat belt component that fails to function properly during normal use is covered by a lifetime warrantee". However, Honda is refusing to replace the seat belt latch under warrantee. I contacted Honda customer service and file a complaint. Everyone I talked to agreed that it should be covered under warantee. However, they said that there is nothing they can because of direction from Honda corporate. Apparently the Honda warrrantee is not worth the paper that it is written on.

I wish they would put a recall on electrical stuff that they have no answer for especially when we have to pay every time you bring it in and they find nothing wrong and it continues with the same problem. The air bag light comes on every other time the car is on.

The SRS dash light came on and stayed on. It took the dealership days to diagnose - and it shouldn't have as this problem (and part) was investigated on the 2001 Accord. If I had not had the extended warranty, this would have cost well over $250. This is obviously a faulty part- and should be re-called. This problem can cause the airbags NOT to operate and should be covered by the company - warranty or no. It can be life-threatening. Why no re-call? No doubt.... money.
