NHTSA Complaint #10910169 — 2014 HONDA ODYSSEY

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 INJURY MAY OCCUR TO THE 3RD ROW OCCUPANTS IF THE 2ND ROW SEAT MOVES WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. 2ND ROW SEAT OCCUPANTS ALSO MAY BE INJURED IN THIS SITUATION WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. DEALER REPLACED LOCKING MECHANISM OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE 2ND ROW SEATS BUT DRIVER SIDE SEAT NOW DISPLAYS THIS SYMPTOM.
