What owners wrote
My 2008 honda accord ex coupe is a nightmare. Trying to use the defroster while warming up car,blower motor kept losing power. Lights in and out of car are still flickering when you have the lights on and cooling fan comes on. Honda says all hondas do it. This is my fourth and this is the only one with this electrical issue. Honda is rude , and doesn't care. Besides pealing paint, bad drivers upholstry,the passenger seat will not stay still and hass a bead creaking sound.
While driving in moderate rain showers, water pools on drivers side windshield. Very noticeable at speeds of 50-70 MPH. Windshield wipers operating at any speed actually pull the pool of water from the left side of the front pillar into the drivers vision on the downstroke.
