Description of the problem	I drive a 2004 honda cr-v which appears to have automatic locking retractors on the seat belts. I have two young children and the biggest, now 4 1/2, has just moved into a booster seat. Because the seat belts retract automatically, getting tighter and tighter with every movement, my child already got terrified when she was pinned back in her seat by the seat belt, with her chest smashed into her booster seat. While driving, there was nothing i could do to assist her. Also, although i purchased an excellent car seat, the automatic retraction of the seatbelt means that each time i need to get my child in and out of the seat, i must first unthread and then rethread the seatbelt through the seat's guides, creating ample opportunity to do so incorrectly. Finally, and most importantly, b/c of the automatic retraction of the seatbelt, i am quite concerned about the risk of strangulation, such as what happened to a local child, deandre harris (see washington post story on december 17, 2008). Deandre, whose mother drove a honda cr-v, died shortly after his accident, in which he could not free himself from the tightened honda cr-v seatbelt. Please let me know if honda currently offers replacement of its automatic locking retractors with emergency locking retractors or switchable retractors to ensure that children riding in hondas do not risk strangulation. Also, please advise me what your office is doing to investigate and address this, apparently, extremely serious problem. Thank you.
