Window Rattling and rear seat problems...

This has been happening for awhile now and I just now have time. Going to drop off the car tomorrow but just wondering if anyone else has had these problems.

Ok, the windows. Both my front windows, mainly passenger, rattle like crazy when they are partially rolled down and when all the way up but not when it's all the way rolled down. Sounds like it's about to break or fall off.

Now the rear seat. My passenger side rear seat seems broken lol...when you push on the seat it goes in and pops out. It sounds like metal.

When your windows are rolled a partially down it will rattle a little bit because they are not solidly secured. As for rattling when closed thats an issue. Yea your seat sound bad too.

I wonder if Honda is fully aware of these problems, and whether or not it'll become a recall issue...

personally online petitions are as useless as the online space they take up. your gonna need to talk to Honda of America and/or make a class action suit if your willing to work on that.

I have the same problem with my front drivers side window. When it is partially rolled down, and in contact with the front of the window seal (the one near the little front window) it squeaks over every bump. Luckily mine does not rattle when it is rolled all the way up or down, its just in the middle that it makes noise. Please let us know what your dealership says.

Make sure to have it checked, my drivers window bound up when I pressed the auto down button one day comming home from work and it shattered. I posted a thread about it a while ago on the boards here.

Well for the windows, it was because when they tinted it, they didn't tighten something. As for the rear seat, it was some bar that pushed back.

Can you hear it when the close your door? Mine used to also when I had it rolled down partly, you could hear it when I moved the window back and forth.

old thread.. but..
i took it in to the dealer today about the window rattle and the rear seat problem
they blamed the rattle on the windows due to the "aftermarkert" wiring i had or whatever
then they blamed the rear seats poping on my "aftermarket subwoofer" or wahtever..
im gonna take it out and bring it back, and see wth they can say now..
