CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2006 Honda Pilot is a solid trouble-free model year with no major problems reported, except for a minor trend of window regulator failure. However that's an easy fix of a few hundred dollars -- not a big inconvenience for an older vehicle, all things considered.

When the seatbelt on the driver side is bucked it will pop lose. So I would try again till it locks. It was in motion and also have been in stationary position..
The contact owns a 2006 Honda Pilot. While driving 55 mph, the driver's side curtain air bag and driver's seat air bag deployed without warning or an impact. Also, the driver's seat belt tightened up unexpectedly. The contact swerved the vehicle slightly due to being constricted by the seat belt. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was towed to fairfield Honda (201 lycoming mall dr, muncy, pa 17756, (570) 326-2858), but was not diagnosed or repaired at the contact's request. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.
I was driving on the highway in Florida. I had a 5 year old strapped in a booster seat in the third row of my 2006 Honda Pilot (she was sitting on the driver's side of the 3rd row). She told us that her seat belt just broke. We pulled over. Apparently the female buckle end came off the seat belt strap. I don't understand what happened, the loop in the buckle though which the strap goes through seems very corroded (not rust but a whitish powder). The buckle was loose and could simply slip off the strap. This could be very dangerous. I just looked it up and couldn't find any information on this. The buckle seems to have a serial number on it: 05322aahmam.
As I entered the car the and went to buckle the seat belt. I pushed gentle back on the seat back. At that point the seat back dropped back into the rear seat. When the dealer looked at it he advised me that the seat adjuster has failed. If the car was in a accident I would have been severely hurt. Honda usa will not do anything to help fix this major safety issue with their seat.

The contact owns a 2006 Honda Pilot. The contact's three year old child was seated behind the driver's seat. Directly behind the driver's head is a seat belt that is connected to the roof, which crosses into the middle rear seat. While the contact was driving 45 mph, the child was able to grab the seat belt. While playing with it, the seat belt somehow wrapped around the child's neck. The contact pulled the vehicle over, but was unable to unwrap the seat belt due to the connection of the seat in the vehicle. She had to cut the seat belt because the child was turning blue due to lack of oxygen. She called Honda and was informed that the seat belt was working properly and she should have been able to unlatch the seat belt. The VIN was unknown. The current and failure mileages were 34,000.
