Accord Coupe Hatchback 2.4L V4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 25,000 miles

I purchased this car in 2011 and had it only 8 months. Up to that time, I had never had back problems and worked out on a regular basis. Because of the bad seat/lumbar, my pain is daily and unbearable. When I purchased the used car, I brought it to a local Honda dealership and told them the lumbar was bad. They told me there was nothing wrong with it. Night after night, I was in so much pain, I could hardly sleep. I watched a video on how to supposedly "fix" the lumbar problem, and had a mechanic do the repair. It only made the problem worse.

I sold the car 8 months later. I have been to many chiropractors and done lots of physical therapy, to no avail. I live with chronic pain because of this car seat. I sleep with ice packs and heating pads to help with the pain. I can no longer participate in any physical activity. I hope that someone will sue Honda for providing a defective seat in this car because I would testify against them.

Wow! The resent amount of issues that have been showing up on 2008 Honda Accord, has me not wanting to ever purchase another Honda again. Always have heard great thing about these cars, but experience has been way different. Again another problem, the lumbar support has now broke. This car has way to many issues for a 2008 with 76,000 miles. The frustrations are becoming overwhelming, to many problems

Accord EX

  • Automatic transmission

This newly bought car (just last year) is plagued with nothing but problem after problem. This time it is the driver seat lumbar support that stopped working. I am sick and fed up with this car, I feel like driving it off a cliff. Honda needs to replace all these cars or give me my damn money back. I will never buy Honda again!!
