CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2012 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 "we never noticed this during the test drive." Unfortunately for unwary buyers, the seat pain is noticeable after 15-20 minutes.
I bought a 2012 Honda Accord sedan so I could take long trips out west. Yesterday I had to drive it 300 miles for a family emergency. My old truck rode a lot better. I dont think I could ride it 500 miles much less a1000 or two. Every little bump or dip or uneven piece of road is transmitted right to the cabin. Very Rough ride. Shame on Honda! They could do better. I will get rid of this piece of junk at any price and never buy Honda again. I will buy American this time.
