"Massive Honda SUV Recall: 300,000+ Vehicles Affected by Seat Belt Problem"
Honda is recalling over 300,000 2023 and 2024 HR-V's and Accords due to a seat belt issue that could increase the risk of injury in a crash. The vehicles may be missing a seat belt connector rivet, which is necessary for proper passenger restraint. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reported that the rivet was skipped during assembly. Honda will send recall letters to owners starting January 8, and dealers will inspect and fix the problem free of charge. The seat belts do not comply with federal safety standards, but no injuries have been reported.
