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.
The car wouldn't start, the first time i took it to a service station, they told me that i must have left a light on.....its a honest mistake that can happen. When it happened again, it seemed odd and when it happened the third time, I was insistence that they take a look at it.
I am so surprised that they changed the battery of a car less than 2 years old and 22K miles.
Recently, my 2012 Honda Accord won't start when the key is turned in the ignition. The engine does not turnover. This only happens first thing in the morning. Subsequent starts are no problem.
