Honda Pilot, 2025
What to do
Dealers will inspect and repair the seat belt routing as necessary, free of charge. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138.
The hazard
A non-functioning seat belt cannot properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash. The defect is caused by incorrect routing that traps the seat belt behind the passenger side panel.
