seatbelts locking
perhaps his has been discussed before, but I've missed it if so...
but these belts are really annoying us - the dealer says it's a "feature" - we've got an '04 Accord the belts will occasionally lock up tight to a person and/or lock when you are trying to get them done up (before you can latch them) is there any way to disable this "feature" without disabling the ability to lock on impact?

Tension and the locking cam are preset at the factory. I would NOT want to start dis-assembling the seat belt unit and fiddling with the cams. I have an 04 Accord as well so I know what the issue is. But pull abit more slowly when getting in and you won't have this problem. Its one of those "just deal with it" issues.

You may be yanking them out too fast. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/

Re: seatbelts locking
OK - I'll try that - might be that - but sometimes locks up as we drive
along (particularly rear ones) thanks. Dave.
