    Sometime back in september of 2015, it was noticeable that the driver's seat would jerk forward (it began as a jerk to half an inch and as time passed the jerk increased to an inch forward). Specifically this occurs during an abrupt stop (i.e. At a stop light, stop sign, traffic stop, etc.). I believe this could be due to a manufacturer's defect. It is concerning that an accident could occur due to the lack of…

    I took my car to a local honda dealer for a recall to be repaired. After getting the car back, i still get a dashboard warning light indicating that the part may still be defective. The part in question is the passenger side power seat wire harness (seat srs sensor). I was not aware of this recall, but the dealer was kind enough to inform me, but i just don't feel the issue has been corrected. *tr

    To whom it may concern: there is a huge safety problem with the passenger air bag sensor in my car. The passenger seat airbag indicator lights comes on intermittently when no items are in the seat, and occasionally comes when items are in the seat. The seat definitely has a short in it and i am concerned about it not working properly if i am involved in an accident. *tr ## vin passed ##

    Ball bearing fell out of seat track at 50,000 miles. There was no trauma to the car. The seat now moves 1/4 to 1/2 inch upon starting and stopping. The safety concern is whether the seat is more likely to break free if an accident occurs or if there could be a spontaneous further failure of the seat. Negotiations with honda for repair are in progress but have been unsatisfactory. *tr

    Summary: on certain vehicles, the seat position sensor (sps) detects the driver's seating position and adjusts the air bag inflation pressure accordingly. The wiring harness for the sps was attached to the seat frame in the wrong location and may have been over tightened. The sensor wire may break and cause the air bag warning light to be illuminated, and the sps to fail. *tr
