The second row outboard seats come unsecured from the floor of the vehicle. This continues to happen after honda performed its most recent recall repair. A four year old 38 lb. Child kicked the second row passenger seat back. The seat came dislodged from the floor hooks/anchors. See attached photos. The car was stationary when this happened.

Recalls number 17v-725 and 18v-170 appear to be serious safety issues for passengers in the 2nd row seats, and there does not appear to be a manufacturer solution. For the 17v-725 recall, it has been outstanding for over a year without a solution offered by the manufacturer. Why is this taking so long and why hasn't nhsta not taken stronger action to compel honda to fix the problem? This is why you exist, to keep…

This is the 2nd recall i've had on my car within a year all having to do with the 2nd row seats not latching properly. The lady on the phone just told me that if i brake too hard the seat could possibly come unlatched. I have a child and you're telling me that honda isn't doing anything except waiting for parts to come in and not selling their new vans until these parts come in. I don't feel that is enough. How can…

The second row seats both driver and passenger side does not latch properly. This usually occurs when accessing the 3rd row seats using the slide handle. Under normal operation, returning the 2nd row seats to the upright position secures the slider mechanism of the seats and prevents the 2nd row seat from moving. However, the locking mechanism does not work and you will not know that the seat is not secure. Possible…

The second row seats both the left and the right side do not lock into place when you move the seat. You would have to manually touch the black bar on the bottom to lock the seat. My children several times have had the seat move and almost choke them when we come to a complete stop. I have complain several times to my dealership and they have told me that it was a defective spring, however warranty will not change…

In your attempt to help keep people safe you have created an unsafe environment.
