New 2020 Honda Accord Sport 1.5T – I purchased this vehicle from Autonation Honda in Chandler, Arizona 6 weeks ago. I have not made the first payment yet on this vehicle and according to the dealership, the transmission is defective and needs to be replaced. Not only does my vehicle have a defective transmission but the hood cover insulation had a major stain which leads me to believe that this vehicle was also leaking something from the engine. I do not feel safe in this vehicle nor will I risk my family’s safety on a car that has major defects such as a transmission failure. As a family we take many road trips and I don’t want to imagine what could have happened if our brand new car failed on us in the middle of the desert with no cellphone reception. I did my research online and I thought that it would be a great purchase since Honda has a reputation for reliability and this car in particular is supposed to be one of the best. I no longer want this car and I am requesting Honda to please refund this purchase. Thank you!

Sensor & Camera are a major design flaw

I drove through the snow yesterday and my dashboard lit up like a Christmas Tree. The warnings were for the Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation Braking System, and Road Departure Mitigation System Problem. In addition, the Braking System warning light came on. This has happened previously in the rain, but the warning lights would shut off in a matter of minutes. I called the Honda dealer service department and they stated that it was because of the location of the cameras and sensor. I was concerned and made an appointment anyway. Of course, the lights all turned off on my way to the dealership - this was over 24 hours after I drove through the snow. This is a case of over-engineering and a major design flaw. At the dealership that told me I'd have to live with it. I told them no way - after having a 2020 Honda Accord EX-L for 4 months, I'm going to trade it in.

Excellent drive but noisy interior

I love the way the car drives. The four-cylinder 1.5L engine sounds like and is smooth like a six-cylinder engine. Not as fast as one, but not a problem. It's fast enough. Most reviewers online complain about the CVT, but I actually prefer it over the automatic. I test drove both. No shifts, RPMs are always low in the city, and smooth acceleration from a stop. It feels like an electric car. My biggest complaint is the interior noise. Not only the normal stuff while on the highway like tire noise and wind noise, but also rattles caused by manufacturer defects. One major rattle noise is coming from the driver's seatbelt assembly on the b-pillar, right next to my left ear! Worst location ever for a rattle. No matter how faint it is, you can hear it loud and clear! The first dealer pretended to fix it but didn't. The second dealer was dismissive of me and of the seriousness of the problem. After diagnosing the problem, they asked me to reschedule, although I had to wait three weeks for that appointment. The customer service I received from these two dealership made me realize I made a mistake when I decided not to to buy a Lexus. Honda dealerships do not care. If you are considering a Lexus ES, get it. It's not as nimble as the Accord, but at least you get a better build quality and a much better customer service.

I had not bought a new card for a very long time, and when the opportunity arrived I went for a new Accord. Absolutely no regrets aside from having to suffer through the 731 page owner manual (twice) and essentially learn about the latest driving technology from scratch. Yes, I do from time to time wander out into the dark garage and just sit and enjoy.
