Consumer Description
HONDA DENYING WARRANTY REPAIR FOR SEAT BELT ERROR CODE DTC 54-50 MALFUNCTION FOR THE SRS (FOR WHICH I WAS ALSO CHARGED $65 BY DEALER TO APPLY DIAGNOSTIC CODE ANALYZER). USER MANUAL STATES BROADLY: "SEAT BELT LIMITED WARRANTY -- A SEAT BELT THAT FAILS TO FUNCTION PROPERLY IS COVERED FOR THE USEFUL LIFE OF THE CAR." HONDA STATES SUCH LIFETIME WARRANTY PER LAW ALLOWS IT TO LIMIT REPAIRS TO THE BELT STRAP MATERIAL AND THE METAL BUCKLE ONLY, AND LAW DOES NOT EXTEND TO EMBEDDED ELECTRIC CONTROLS WHICH ENGAGE RESTRAINT WHEN BRAKING OR SEND AUDIBLE ALARM TO USER WHEN OPERATING WITHOUT BUCKLE BEING INSERTED.
