Used 2009 Honda Accord EX-L V-6 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
Driver seat stinks
Everything is great except for the driver seat. Very uncomfortable. I hate how many reviewers wrote the same comments but STILL recommend buying it. I wouldn't EVER buy a Honda again. The seat is a killer on my back.
Trading It!
What's to like other than the looks? My brakes squeal all the time! The engine does not do well switching from 6cyl to 3cyl. XM Radio still does not work! And cylinder head blew a few months ago. It was fixed but still does not start the first time every time. Honda says it's fine, can't find anything wrong? Best part is the 36,000 mile warranty that is almost up. Selling it soon!

Brake squeaking
Car is really nice, but beginning about 3,000 miles brakes started squeaking. I understand that it's happening on many new models and Honda has yet to find a solution for it. No safety concern, but annoying sound when driving, especially with windows down.
Visibility when it rains
I have a problem...rain on the outside of the window and the mirror makes for a difficult time changing lanes. You can't see.
Plus and Minus
I have owned this car for 2 years. The positive is that it handles well on all road surfaces including ice/snow. Mileage is almost the same on the highway as my 2003 Cadillac SLS at slightly over 26 mpg. The seats are terrible. After 3 hours, my legs and back ache. I can put up with the user unfriendly center panel controls but am ready to sell due to the seats. I test drove the Accord for 2 hours prior to purchase. Wish I had driven it another hour. The A/C is barely able to keep up with 90 degree outside temps.
