Description of the problem | The left rear and center rear seat belt buckles, are opposite of what they should be. This arrangement makes it impossible for the left rear passenger, to buckle up if the center seat person is buckled in, or a car seat is in place. Contacted my honda service department and they forwarded my complaint to the district representative, his response was he is aware of the issue but there is no fix for the problem. I did some research and found that the acura rdx is the same platform as the honda cr-v. So i visited the nearest acura dealership, the seat belt buckle arrangement was correct on that acura rdx. Looks like the anchor point and the buckles are exactly the same as the ones that are in my honda cr-v. Would be willing to bet that the acura seat belt assembly would solve the rear seat belt issue on these honda's, the assembly is only $66. 00! Why should i have to do that when it wasn't my mistake in designing it. . Updated 11/09/17 *bf *js updated 7/27/18*jb |
