What owners wrote
Front driver seat is causing neck,back and hip pain after driving 10-15 minutes, adjusting seat does not help. I took vehicle back to dealership, they inspected seat and said there is no problem, I told them there is a problem because no matter who drives the car everyone experiences the same pain. I googled "accord seat problem" and found that there are several websites and hundreds of people having the same issue.
The drivers seats are very bad and cause back problems. I have developed server back aches after using this honda for the past 3 months.
