CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2010 Honda Accord some several significant flaws: excessive oil consumption, premature brake wear, & uncomfortable seats.
In October 2013, Honda settled a class action for excessive oil consumption which extends their V6 powertrain warranty out to 8 years & no mileage limit. However, is the inconvenience & risk of dealing with Honda on this problem worth it? We don't think so.
Owners have consistently reported uncomfortable seats with the entire 8th generation (2008-2012) of Honda Accords. Complaints range from back pain to leg circulation problems due to bad lumbar support, cushioning, & seat angle. Unwary buyers report the seat pain is mainly only noticeable after 15-20 minutes. The common theme we hear is "never noticed this during the test drive."
During the test drive, I could not realized that my accelation is not quite strong.
My engine warm up time talkes too long. I put my gear to P, and started my engine and waited until the rpm drops to 800. It takes 6 minutes even though the temperature is very warm (44F to 60F thesedays). My friend told me that this must take about 2min.

I purchased a brand new Honda Accord 2.4 Lx Auto.
