Used 2017 Honda Accord Consumer Reviews

Back to Honda after 30 years

You will like the six speed manual if you don't have to drive in stop and go traffic a lot. Put the car in eco mode and set cruise at 70 and expect 37 miles per gallon or more on long trips even loaded down. My last Honda accord was noisy and this one seems to carry on that tradition with some wind noise. Not as many buzzy rattles as my last accord though. I occasionally drive on 6 and 7 hour trips and find the accord does not wear me out like some other cars I have had. The steering was skiddish till the tires were broke in but at 47,000 miles the steering is smooth and the wheel doesn't shake or vibrate. Tires are wearing evenly and they are not bouncing or hopping at any speed. Brakes are still working good even though I am pretty hard on them. I have noticed the tiniest bit of shimmy when i am stopping but I had the same issue on other cars after 50k of hard stopping short like I sometimes do. All in all I think Honda did a good job with the 2017 accord and I hope when the time comes I can still get another one like this one.

Good looking

We are Honda owners who like the reliability and long life of our previous Honda autos. We have not had this Honda long enough to rate many of the above catagories. So far we are happy with our purchase. The front seats are a little low for a shorter person and somewhat difficult for entering and exiting.

Hondas forever

This is my fourth Honda, my second accord. Well it is a little smaller than my 2005 accord, I love this car. It’s magical. I feel like I have come into the 21st-century. It drives amazing, it’s so pretty, the only thing I wish I had gotten was tinting.

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.

Awesome

Honda

I've driven Honda cars since 1987 last one purchased was in 2000 always reliable had the EXL and manual. The radio and road noise were both terrible but since it worked and was paid for kept driving it until 2017. Of course the first cars I looked at were Honda Accord and CRV. Both drove ok.it was just the quality didn't seem to be there even leather didn't look as good as in the old days. Tried to locate a civic hatchback to drive but none were available where I was shopping. CRV compared to Nissan Rogue seemed so light weight I backed off of it. One Honda dealership we drove over to it talked with the internet sales trying to get a price. He didn't get back with us until several weeks later after we had already purchased another car. Still didn't have a price only asked if we were interested. To me Honda has cheapened up the looks and feel some much after thirt years I had to choose another brand

Look out for a good deal

Look out for a good financial deal,) if you can, because otherways I see it a better (and nicer!!) model than the 2018 equivalent.

Great reliable car!
