CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2011 Honda Accord has a solid reputation (so far), with one very significant flaw: uncomfortable seats.
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. Complaints aren't limited to only a certain body type -- the seat comfort problems are from a wide spectrum of owner height & weight.
The common theme we hear is "never noticed this during the test drive." Unfortunately for unwary buyers, the seat pain is noticeable after 15-20 minutes.
ON THE 10TH OF MARCH, 2015, THE REAR CALIPER WAS LEAKING ALONG WITH OTHER PARTS. ON THE NINTH OF SEPTEMBER, I HEARD GRINDING IN THE BRAKES. I TOOK IT TO MY REGULAR MECHANIC AND HE NOTICED THAT THE REAR CALIPER WAS LEAKING AGAIN. INSTEAD OF TAKING IT THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM, I TOOK IT TO HONDA. THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED HOWEVER I HAD TO PAY ANOTHER DEDUCTIBLE!!!! MY BRAKES ARE STILL GRINDING, I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AND I CAN FORSEE MANY MORE BRAKE PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE!!!!
