2006 Honda Ridgeline Seat belts Problems

“Takata inflators I took my truck in for recalls but now red light (bag inflator) is on that means they are not on. I talked to Honda they said could be some dirt in my seat belt latch? It comes on as soon as I put my seat belt on.”

“While driving about 50 miles an hour, I came upon a curve too fast which caused me to slide off the road slightly. I corrected my error and in doing so, both side curtain airbags deployed prematurely. No other air bags deployed and there was no damage to the vehicle. The dealers report stated that the vehicle sensors thought a rollover crash was imminent which caused the side air bags to deploy. There was no damage of any kind to the vehicle and the side air bags should not have deployed. America Honda says they have no responsibility or obligation to correct this defect.”

“The truck struck a tree and the harness seat belt did not work properly resulting in a broken back in two areas causing disability. The bag did deploy. I bought the truck new in 2006 and noticed that the belt never took hold no matter what speed you thrusted the belt forward.

At the time of the accident, the driver's seat belt tensioner did lock and the passenger's side airbag did deploy although there was nothing in the passenger's seat. …”

“Raining, traveling north, far right lane on very busy street in los angeles (sepulveda) when a car traveling south turned left. We did head-on impact into the side of his car. His airbag deployed - ours did not - but the most concern is that the front passenger-side seat belt malfunctioned thus allowing the impact to throw me forward and on the impact striking my head on windshield or visor and both knees and lower legs on dash; then thrown back into seat resulting in wrenched back and neck, knocking air out of me. The seat belt was locked into an extra-large position when car stopped. …”
