    I just noticed the passenger seat on my 2001 Prelude SE isn't sliding
    properly and have discovered that possibly the seat frame is crooked as it
    seems too close to the door. As opposed to my driver's side being closer to
    the center console, the passenger seat side (back part) seems to rub on the
    arm of the door, thus does not slide easily when you press the release
    lever. I am probably going to need this fixed but I am wondering if Honda
    warranty covers this? I am not sure what could of caused this in the first
    place, possibly a recent accident (spinout) on the highway that happened not
    too long ago. Does anyone know roughly how much it is going to cost me to
    fix something like that if it is not covered?

    The warranty will not cover it if it was caused by the accident. Best bet
    is to get the seat rails off another car in the junk yard.

    If its rubbing on the door, was that side of the car damaged in the
    accident? Could be the problem is the floor pan is bent causing the seat to
    be misaligned.

    I have a 2001 accord that needed a new cable inside the seat to be able to
    push it forward. I bought the car used with a 3 year Hondacare warranty
    just this year and it was covered for a $50 deductible, or else it would
    have been about $300.
