 Rear passenger fell asleep with right rear seat belt on. when at destination, seat belt was twisted and when the latch was released, the seat belt tightened around the passenger's waist and locked. it would not release and continued to tighten. the only way the passenger could get out was to cut the seat belt with scissors. *tr

 Seat belt on the passenger front side of our 2009 honda fit ratchets constantly when an adult is seated in this seat. we have attempted to deal with the dealer on multiple occasions and they tell us that this is normal operating conditions for our car. we have owned several vehicles and never had this occur prior to owning this car. i deam this to be a safety concern because we have to undo the seatbelt and completely let it go in and then put it back on every few miles or it will choke the passenger sitting in the seat. so we are doing this while driving daily several times each trip.

 Front seat passenger seatbelt locks and fails to release. this problem began shortly after we purchased our honda fit. it has occurred almost weekly. we have taken it into hondas service dept on several occasions but they have never found any problem. we have owned other fits without ever experiencing this issue.
