Fantastic Car if you don't have neck/back probs

I have had this car for a month and driven 1000. Let me start by saying I have not had any previous neck or back problems. I had problems on the 1 1/2 hour drive home from the dealership. My right leg started to go numb and my neck was killing me. I just figured I didn't have the seat adjusted properly. I readjusted the seats and no longer had the leg problem. I was able to determine that the problem was with the headrest. It is angled so far forward it pushes your neck into an awkward position. I had pain and tightness running from the right side of my neck all the way to my lower back. I thought of just removing the headrest but that obviously is not a solution for safety reasons. For a month, I tried different seat positions and couldn't find one that work. I am very sad because I LOVED this car. Right now, I am in the process of trying to make a deal for a new Camry. If you look on line, you will see that the headrest has been a problem for many people.

Great tech but the skimped on materials

Great tech and great ride but it is diminished by the following cost -cutting / design flaws.. 1. No volume knob! Really? Do they not know how important this is?!? 2. GPS is not very reliable: Often takes a while to find your location/direction. Needs a better antenna. 3. Remote start has a short reach. Lame! How am I suppose to start my car from my office?? 4. There is no visor over the dashboard / navigation screen to prevent sun washout. There should be. 5. Navigation system does not show you the name of the road you are on. It only shows you the name of the road you are approaching. That is useful but it should display the name of the road you are on.

The Honda Accord is a great car -- highly reliable, comfortable and pleasure to own and drive. I am on my fourth Honda Accord and have been more and more satisfied with each successive car!

Buyers, Beware of the Stereo and other electronics

After taking delivery of EX-L NAVI and driving couple of days, I started to notice there is sound re-production is not well so I thought that it might be the audio settings to tune with. I make the changes in sound settings by changing BASS, TREBEL as well Subwoofer. After making changes to the audio settings, still there is an issue with the sound quality. At least I'm not expecting this kind of worst sound quality from the premium audio system. After few days, I've noticed that what settings which I've made for volume is changed to the lowest level at 10 and I correctly remembered that I've set to 15. I thought it might be my oversight so I've continuously observed the behavior. I've reported issues with the stereo due to the settings were not saved and sound quality is not good specifically with the FM and XM. After investigation, the service advisor reported back that there is nothing wrong with stereo. I was not convinced with the response. After that incident I’ve started continuously monitoring the stereo performance. Again, I’ve noticed that the stereo screens are not changing when I change the channels on the radio. I thought that might be intermittent issue and ignored at that day. On subsequent days, I’ve noticed that the stereo screen is freezing and it does not correctly report currently playing channel. So I took my vehicle to the dealership and explained the service advisor what is happening and showed him a video about the stereo behavior. After the investigation, I got call from the service advisor that my vehicle is ready to be picked up. So I went to dealership to pick up the car. The next morning, the issue again comes up and I went back to the dealership to report the issue. This time, the other service advisor has seen the issue and acknowledges it. He re-opened the previous RO for further investigation. After the feedback from Honda, they replaced the Tuner board in car. After 3 days, the same issue arises and I went to dealership to report the problem and for resolution. The service adviser told me that they have to replace the entire stereo unit. Till now, the resolution is not happened. After the numerous repair attempt, at the end the issue has been resolved but it introduced new issue. Now, the navigation system is always crashing. Last time when the navigation crashed, I'm unable to see where I'm going and I've got lost and it takes me additional 3 hours to reach my destination. My advice to every buyer of this model to thoroughly check the stereo and other electronic quipment prior to making any purchase decision. I believe this is the issue with all models. As most people does have a navigation screen on the main display screen and they may not be able to notice this weird behavior.

Purchased 2016 Accird, great safety features, great looks without the thousands of dollars spent on imports like BMW or Mercedes. For the money best sedan out there. Honda has stepped up their game and come out with another great Accord. 6 months and more to love about this car. 28 mpg makes a trip to the pump once every 10 days
