Known issues on the 2000 S2000. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the front seat belt retractors, which can deform and lock completely or too often, leaving the belt unable to be pulled out and used. The second covers the front seat belt anchorages: with the convertible top down and the seat pushed all the way back, the belts may fail to retract properly and develop slack that reduces their protective capability in a crash. The third covers the tail light assembly, where the side marker lamp lens and side reflex reflector were built with incorrect dye and do not meet federal lighting standards. Owners have filed 46 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From a seat belt retractor inspection to routine top-down maintenance, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2000 S2000.
