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.
The car is all over the road after 65 MPH - if there is rain or snow it is dangerous.....if there is wind it is very dangerous....brought back to dealership 3 times, no resolution.....have a 2016 - same car same problem...back to the shop twice, no resolution ..car is defective
After several complaints, dealer eventually replaced all 4 shock absorbers, problem was really bad and vehicle felt very unsafe. I intend selling vehicle, although instability seems not so bad now
