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.
I have only 14,537 miles on my 2011 Honda Accord. I take it to the dealer to see about my back left tire having a slow leak and he comes back and tells me that it can't be fixed because it is in the side wall. Okay, that would be fine if I haven't already had to do this once before. Same problem! Either they have crappy tires or someone is trying to fill me with BS to get me to pay more for tires. I don't want to hear it is my driving blah, blah, blah! I had a Chevrolet for about 7 years before I even had any problems with my tires. This is the second tire people and my car has only 14,537 miles!. I had a Honda Civic before this and my daughter has a Honda Fit and we have had the same problem. This is my last Honda because I am tired of paying out the ass. So Beware!
