What Owners Say

Seat belts

""The rear seat belt behind the driver kept detecting that it was buckled, so it would turn green, then unbuckled causing it to turn red and an alarm sounded. Normally, if you don't buckle one of the rear belts it is grey on the info page until you do. As far as I could tell, there are no weight sensors in the rear seats and this happened even if a rear door was not opened (separate reminder system for that). Probably a bad latch that caused an electrical short, but the dealership replaced it under warranty.""

Seat controls - manual

"The driver seat height would not hold in place. It would gradually drop in height over a few days/weeks. Finally, the lift handle broke off. The dealer had to replace the whole mechanism."

Anonymous, GA (2024 Honda HR-V EX-L 2.0-L 4 Cyl)

"The manual seat lock is not secure in that when driving, the seat lowers on its own. I must manually raise the seat multiple times (nomally 3 pulls) during my travels to raise it back up to the highest level. Safety issue."
