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.

2012 Honda Accord Owner Comments

problem #2

Accord SE 2.4L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 81,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

This is a problem that I have had as long as I have owned the car. The door lock actuators have failed several times since I have owned the car, and I have owned this car for four years plus at the time of this writing. Every door lock actuator on every door has been replaced multiple times, covered, fortunately, by extended warranty, or this would have been very costly. There has been no solution to this problem, period.
