BRAND NEW HONDA ACCORD LX 2011 WORST SEAT EVER BACK PAIN LOWER BACK PAIN EVERYDAY WITH SINGLE COMMUTE TO WORK IT IS HORRIBLE. *TR

1.VERY UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVER SEAT, CAUSES SERIOUS BACK PAIN FROM MID TO LONG DRIVE. 2.PAIN OCCURS EVERY DAY DURING DAILY COMMUTE. 3. ONLY SOLUTION SEEMS TO BE COMPLETE SEAT REPLACEMENT WITH DIFFERENT DESIGN. *TR

2011 HONDA ACCORD DRIVER SEAT IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. I AM CONSTANTLY ADJUSTING THE SEAT, BUT UNABLE TO OBTAIN AN ACCEPTABLE SEATING POSITION. LUMBAR SUPPORT IS VERY HARD AND CANNOT BE ADJUSTED TO MY SATISFACTION. I FIND THE DISCOMFORT WITH THE SEATING VERY DISTRACTING. *TR

NEW 2011 HONDA ACCORD (STARTING WHEN THE CAR GOT TO ABOUT 500 MILES ON ODOMETER): DOESN'T DECELERATE SMOOTHLY (GIVES A BIT OF A ROUGH "BRAKING" & ACCELERATION ACTION (A BIT OF A ROUGH RIDE) & ABOUT 100-200RPM INCREASE) THROUGH 20MPH, THEN, AGAIN THROUGH 15MPH. HONDA DEALER SAYS THERE'S NOTHING WRONG BECAUSE OTHERWISE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD GO ON. THIS OCCURS CONSTANTLY EVERY DAY, USUALLY AFTER THE CAR HAS WARMED UP FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES & GONE FROM "COLD" TO ABOUT 45MPH SPEED LIMIT DRIVING. I WANTED TO MAKE A RECORD OF IT HERE FOR NOW IN CASE OTHERS EXPERIENCE THIS. *TR

JUST PURCHASED A 2011 HONDA ACCORD. THE DRIVERS SEAT IN THIS CAR CAUSES YOU LEGS TO GO NUMB AFTER ABOUT 30 MILES (A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE). SINCE EXPERIENCING THE PROBLEM I HAVE FOUND COUNTLESS FORUMS ONLINE WITH PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING, THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2008 APPARENTLY AND HONDA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE. THIS SEAT SHOULD BE RECALLED IMMEDIATELY. IF HAVING YOUR FEET FALL ASLEEP WHILE DRIVING ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. *LN

HONDA 2011 DRIVERS SEAT IS EXCEPTIONALLY UNCONFORTABLE TO THE EXTENT THAT I HAVE BACK PAIN FROM DRIVING EVEN SHORT TRIPS. I HAVE NOT YET FOUND A WAY TO ELIMINATE THE DISCOMFORT. I'VE TRIED A BACK SUPPORT, AND VARIOUS CUSHIONS TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE HAD 5 PREVIOUS HONDA (2 PREVIOUS ACCORDS, 1 PILOT, 1 PREVIOUS ODYSSEY, AND CURRENTLTY HAVE AN ODYSSEY) MODELS WITH NO COMPLAINTS. *TR

WHILE BRAKING TO A STOP FOR A RED LIGHT OR TO SLOW DOWN TO LESS THAN 10 MPH TO TURN AND THEN ACCELERATING TO PROCEED, THE ENGINE WOULD HESITATE FOR 2-5 SECONDS AND THEN FUNCTION NORMALLY. ENGINE DID NOT STOP, BUT REMIANED IN IDLE MODE. HESITATION HAPPENS AT RANDOM ABOUT 2% OF TIME. NEW VEHICLE WITH UNDER 1500 MILES. DOES NOT MATTER IF ENGINE IS HOT OR COLD. TAKEN TO DEALER AND EXPLAINED IN DETAIL. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE; SO NOTHING WAS REPAIRED. ISSUE DID NOT CAUSE A WARNING LIGHT OR ERROR CODE. CAME REAL CLOSE TO BEING HIT ON A LEFT HAND TURN WHEN ENGINE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. *TR

OWNED AUTO FOR 2 DAYS WHEN AUTO BEGAN TO HESITATE WHEN PUSHING ON GAS PEDAL AND THEN SURGED FORWARD. DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM. 5 DAYS LATER DID SAME FOR A PERIOD OF 20 MINUTES AND WHEN DRIVING TO DEALER (15 MIN) BECAME PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. DEALER HAS HAD AUTO FOR 8 DAYS AND CANNOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM.

FAULTY LUMBAR SUPPORT IN HONDA ACCORD SE 2011. THE LUMBAR SUPPORT IN THE ABOVE MODEL IS FAULTY AND IS RESULTING IN SERIOUS BACK-ACHE TO MANY DRIVERS (ONLINE POSTS CAN BE CHECKED). EVEN WITH ZERO SETTINGS ON LMBAR SUPPORT, IT PROTUDES OUTSIDES RESULTING IN BACK PAIN TO MANY INCLUDING MYSELF. THIS IS ALSO A SAFETY ISSUE AS DUE TO UNCOMFORTABLE POSITION AND THE RESULTING PAIN CAUSES THE DRIVERS TO MOVE AND ALTER POSITIONS OF SITTING, CHANGING THE SEAT SETTINGS WHILE DRIVING. THE PAIN ALSO RESULTS IN TAKING MIND OFF TRAFFIC AND WHATS HAPPENING ON THE ROAD. THE ISSUE IS SOMETIMES EXPERIENCED BY MANY ON DRIVING MORE THAN 30 MILES ON THE FIRST TRY. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

I OWN A 2011 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AND PRESSING THE GAS THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS AND THEN GO. OTHER TIMES IT ACCELERATES PREMATURELY WHILE DRIVING. *TR
