    Seat Belts

    Driver's seat belt does not work properly. It is at least 10 inches shorter that all other seat belts in the vehicle. This makes it impossible to look around and see clearly when backing, turning, and merging. Also, there is not an elr with this belt. This seems like a huge safety issue.

    The passenger seatbelt mechanical spring is rusted out. Honda only warranties it for 150k miles. This being a life saving piece of equipment it should have a lifetime warranty and engineered with a stainless spring.

    Seat Belts

    The driver's side seat belt is considerably shorter than the front passenger seat belt. The driver's seat belt is so constricting that you can't turn to look when changing lanes. So the need to drive without using the seat belt is an issue of safety. I am an average size person and this has never been a problem in any other vehicle i have owned.

    Seat Belts

    When using the drivers side seat belt, there is no extra give in the belt. The belt is very tight and the driver can not even turn to check their blind spot. This is very dangerous. I have had this vehicle since september 2018. I have tried adjusting the seat further away from the wheel, however, the belt seems too short.
