HONDA announced a problem with the ACCORD affecting a total of 21,667 vehicles.
The rear seat belt may suffer poor retraction due to a broken webbing spool. A loose seat belt may not provide sufficient restraint to avoid injury in an impact. Vehicles built from 02/01/1996 to 07/13/1998 are at risk.
The following remedial action is necessary to address this problem. Examine all seat belts, including the front ones, and replace any that have damaged spools. Fit a guide clip to the seat belts where the spool is undamaged.
If you think that your vehicle may be affected by this recall you should
find your nearest HONDA dealer
who will be able to confirm whether or not your car is safe and arrange its free repair if necessary.
