Used 2017 Honda Accord Consumer Reviews

Specious - Old int design for year 2017

Cons: Key has been designed by person whos IQ is less than sack of potato. Any adult person cannot lock the car with such a small buttons. I locked it as I was running late and it opened the trunk in heavy rains. This has happened many times as buttons on key are sooooo small its usable by toddler only. Interior is so lame that you dont even have good storage under the arm. The desk/gps/navigation screen is good size but underutilized for non-gps option. Pros: Very specious on back seats (width), length is good too. Pickup is good compared to Camry. I have been using this for 6mths only. Will come back to add more...

Downgrade from 2014 Honda Civic

Now that I've had a couple of months to experience the 2017 Honda Accord, i truly regret not buying my old 2014 Honda Civic instead of leasing this car. I had assumed future versions of a vehicle would be an upgrade, not downgrade. In terms of voice recognition, the 2014 was superior in every way. The Accord has very limited cellphone compatibility. My OnePlus phone was compatible with the 2014 Civic, but not the 2017 Accord. In fact, the 2017 Accord supports very few manufacturers (Alcatel, Apple, Blackberry, Coolpad, HTC, LG, Motorola, Samsung, ZTE), and among the manufacturers, very few models, except for Samsung and LG. I don't know why they're favoring Korean manufacturers, but there it is. Even Google is not on the list. Unless your phone is on the list, you can't use the voice dialing feature at all. The calling process is now much more cumbersome. With the 2014 Civic, all you had to do was press the talk button and say the name of the person you are calling, then the phone would dial. With the Accord, you have to go through a ridiculous menu system, and that's if your phone is compatible. I find it easier to just connect to bluetooth and dial from the phone, making the process rather unsafe as compared with the 2014 Civic. The mileage is horrible on this car. i drive about 75% city, 25% highway, and the mpg averages 19.5. The Civic was smaller, but the mpg averaged 28, with 80% city and 20% highway. Being a larger vehicle, the Accord has a larger engine, and that shows in the added power. It is less responsive and less maneuverable than the Civic. The Civic would respond as soon as either the gas or brake pedals were engaged. it also had a fairly tight turning radius. The Accord, well... The best features of this car are the automatic headlights and heated leather seating. Automatic headlights are great for those who forget to turn on the headlights at night. While the interior is roomier than the 2014 Civic (the 2017 Civic is larger), the one item I wish they would change is enlarge the center storage console, which has been reduced in size. I use that storage area more often than I would the glove compartment due to proximity to the driver's seat. If the cellphone issue isn't restored to something similar to the 2014 Civic (all new Hondas have the same cellphone system) in the next 3 years, this will likely be the last Honda I'll ever lease.

Good car. Hard ride.

The main problem apparently is the discomfort in the ride. The suspension feels like a sports car and give a very bumpy ride. I asked if it came with adjustable shock absorbers, it doesn't. Many good features including acceleration, brakes, steering, gas mileage above that advertised. Very local 24 mpg, open road 35 to 40 mpg. Seats are somewhat small and hand brake in center is kind of obsolete. If you like the sports feel, this is your car. Update 11/24/18 I traded this car a few months ago for a 2017 Buick Lacrosse. I find it more to my liking with a nice ride and a feeling of safety. The tires seen to be firmly on the road with a sense of stability even over rough roads.

3rd Honda

After 20 years of being a Honda Accord owner, I didn't need to shop around. I just looked for the best deal on my new Honda Accord.
