2001 Honda Odyssey Seat belts Problems

My driver seat belt keeps unlatching . It happens to often. I know there was a previous recall for it but everytime I look it up it doesn’t show on the website. I previously reported here I think last year. Also when shows as an error on the obd reader. As a failing seat belt system recall. My insurance company shows the driver air bag is recalled but again when I look it up here . You list no information about these recalls and it’s scary since both are critical.

Driver seat belt keeps releasing by itself. I put on my seat belt and then it pops open. I haven’t been in any accidents but it’s scares me that it can just release easily therefore no providing me with any protection. I have not taking it in to be reviewed but it has happened multiple times

SEAT BELT EMERGENCY RETRACTION MODE ENGAGED WHEN SEAT BELT WAS NOT LOCKED IN. THE SEAT BELT RETRACTED AND ALMOST STRANGULATED A LITTLE BOY. IT HAD TO BE CUT TO RELEASE HIM OR HE MAY HAVE DIED. WE CANNOT FIND ANY INFORMATION THAT PROVIDED ANY OTHER RECOURSE BUT TO CUT THE SEAT BELT. WE DO NOT BELIEVE THE SEAT BELT SHOULD HAVE RETRACTED IN THIS MANNER WHEN NOT BUCKLED. WE ARE NOT SURE WHETHER HONDA WOULD CHARGE ANYTHING TO REPAIR THIS. THE LITTLE BOY HOWEVER IS STILL VERY UPSET.*AK
