We do not know what other cars like this one does, but our car averages 13 miles per gallon in San Francisco driving. Most of our city driving is done on flat ground. Very little driving is done on hills. Our 2000 8 cylinder Chevy truck makes 11 miles per gallon with the same type of driving. We had expected to average less than the 24 miles per gallon advertised, but not at the ridiculously low rate of 13. The other major gripe is the seat belt. It has to be one of the most inconvient in buckeling. If you do not have the rear view camera, you will have major problems is seeing where you are backing into.

This is my 3rd Honda. The car has a lot of interior room for its size and enough leg room for my husband who is 6'1". The car sits comfortably and I love the heated seats. Although visibility while backing up is okay, I wish we had bought a 2012 with the backup camera. (A camera can be added to the 2011.) The brakes are fantastic! Shimming is a BIG problem with this car. I have had it balanced and aligned 3 times at two different places and it has not solved the problem. I plan to take it to the dealership while we have the warranty on the car. Update: We bought new tires and this has helped with the shimming. It has too be balanced and aligned on a regular basis or it will shimmy. Still running great UPDATE: I had to replace a wheel bearing on one of the wheels. I think it was too early to have to replace a bearing. Also, 3 times the car has not started. When I waited 10 minutes it would start. I replaced the battery and it started fine for almost 2 years. It had the same problem this weekend. I don't know what the problem is. Everything else has been okay. Update- There have not been any other issues with the battery. The material on the arm rest ripped (no reason for ripping) and I had to have it repaired. There is a large air bubble above the arm rest. Update- The torque converter had to be replaced and transmission fluid had to be flushed. The car only has 130,000 miles on it. I spent over $3,000 for repairs. Absolutely ridiculous for a Honda. My next car won't be a Honda!

I bought a V6 Accord about a year ago. After a couple oil changes notice car was low of oil after only 5000 miles. Long story short car uses 1 qrt every 1500 miles and honda is doing nothin. Please google Accord oil consumtion before you buy. This is a very bad problem that Honda will not fix for me are many other accord owners. It anyone has questions email me [violative content deleted].

Uncomfortable Seats in the EX-L

I just leased a 2011 EX-L after driving a Sonata. I should have stuck with the Sonata. I agree with many of the posts I have seen on the seats. They are horrible. Extremely hard and uncomfortable. I'm 5'7" so maybe may body just doesnt fit properly. I bought a $20 cushion from Autozone, and it made it a little better, however, even after a short ride my rear becomes almost numb. The lumbar is also a problem. Frankly, the car just seems a little too big. Nice ride overall and I like the 190hp 4 cyl. Terrible seats for almost a $27k vehicle.
