| I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle for 4 years. i got this problem a couple months a go. when driving the beeping of the front door and seatbelt goes off all the time. the honda world dealer claimed that the recalled seatbelt has been fixed. they blamed this is the door problem. it costs too much to fix and now i'm scared to drive my car since i don't know the door or the seatbelt will fall off. the beeping goes off every minute and driving me crazy. *ak | |||
