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.

Premature brake wear has been a consistent problem for this Accord generation. Once again Honda settled a class action lawsuit over brake wear, but most 2010 Accords are NOT covered.

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."

2010 Honda has been a good car overall. Navigation system is a pain. No back-up camera is available.

The wind and tire noise is constant. They just say that's a Honda.

Also, seems there is noise coming from the front, a very high pitch noise. Like the sound a bearing would make if it needed grease. Hard to tell over the other noises.

The recall items you list, how come Honda never contacted me about the recalls. Also, have been to the Honda Dealer many of times and they never mention a thing about recalls for my car.

Knowing Honda they will charge for the recall work and if you don't like it, they really don't care. They have your money.
