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.
DRIVER WINDOW IS RATTLING WHEN ROLL DOWN COUPLE INCHES ON THE BUMPY ROAD. TOOK TO DEALER TWICE, THE TECHNICIAN SAID IT'S NORMAL THE RATTLING IS GENERATED WHEN WINDOWS ROLLS DOWN EVEN A COUPLE INCHES. IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE WITH THE ANSWER FROM A HONDA CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN.
