Honda Recalls Odyssey Minivans for Seat Belts

Honda is recalling 3,927 2018-model year Odyssey minivans because the seat belt in the third-row center seat may malfunction, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

In these vehicles, the seat belt tongue for the third-row center seating position may not be compatible with the latch, preventing the seat belt from latching securely, NHTSA said. This condition isn’t compliant with all federal safety standards.

Honda dealers will inspect the third-row center seat belt to make sure it has the correct tongue. If needed, the seat belt will be replaced. There will be no charge for this service, NHTSA said.

The recall is expected to begin July 24. Vehicle owners can reach Honda customer service at (888) 234-2138. Honda’s number for this recall is KF7.
