smooth yet annoying rid--too many sensors

Definitely a smooth ride. The traffic Sign recognition System is very inaccurate. this is a feature that shows you speed limits along with road sign information. There has been city limit roads as well as county roads that display with speed limit of 85 mph and even 100 mph. I did not drive in TX as that is the only state that in certain areas of interstate has a speed limit of 85 MPR, therefore I don't understand why the car displays speed limits that do not exist. infotainment is superb. I am amazed what Honda offers as standard (wireless connectivity, wireless charger, rear chargers, fog lights, memory seats, heated seats that actually produce heat, just to name a few. The trunk has plenty of room. the fold down seats are a definite bonus for cargo space. The seats are comfortable but will admit they are quite low to ground--making it difficult for many elders to get in and out of car. Sound system is pretty good and I have the EXL so it has 10 speakers with subwoofer--I will admit it is good but for being the "premium" it lacks sound. I am disappointed to report that I only kept the car for 14months. I do not have children in car seats or passengers in back seat. At 11 months I was thankful Honda replaced my back seat as the rear driver side had two large impressions as if an overweight child was sitting in the back (impressions were near the child reminder sensors). The replacement seat was not as tight as original as i was informed it would not be. I was disappointed with the way the seats in general were wearing. I went to dealership and saw a 2021 EXL which was a one year lease and MY GOD the rear seat was extremely wavy--obvious poor quality leather. I now have a 2023 Camry XSE which I do not like any better but i will say it appears the Toyota seats are much better quality. If i could turn back time I would have kept the 2021 EXL and paid down the road to have the seats redone--what a shame. Man that car has great pick up and excellent fuel mileage.

Bought it as VW Passat was not in stock during my purchase. Sonic grey pearl got my attention in sport trim and immediately booked the car. My daily drive is around 100 KM per day, Its fun, practical and reliable. Few issues which I have: Low Seating, No apple car play, Speaker needs upgrade but not ready to forgo company fit & finish, Beige carpet, Road noise specially on rough tarmac & no auto dimming ORVM.

Not as comfortable as 2016

The newer models sit very low.particularly if your only 5'6 feet. I've had 15 accords But I'm hesitant about buying another one because of the seeding.

Too many unnecessary bells and whistles

It’s a chore to perform routine maintenance like an oil change. The under carriage is surrounded by metal plates that have to be removed for a simple oil change. You have to get the vehicle way up in the air and remove them. That change the time from 15 minutes to over 30. I have a philosophy that the more you have in a car, the more that can go wrong. Turbo? They fail frequently and are costly to repair. Wait till the 150K and we’ll see. Can’t they make a model with the same standard equipment as a 2015?
