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."
Honda Rosenthal of Fairfax, VA lived up to its reputation of ripping off consumers. Wanted to charge me $1300 to replace 2 allegedly defective tires and 1 rim. Renegotiated to 1000 but knew I was ripped off. Was told I could not drive car off lot because the car presented an inherit danger which was not true. Watched while men were given 25 percent discounts on service while I as a woman was given a 10 percent discount. Overall, will never go there again and would recommend anyone else not to go there, too.
