My wife did not like the seat comfort and low driving position. I got the seat back off and did some work that took care of the bulge in lower back part of the seat, but the seat never felt quite right. We bought a Lexus RX330. Paid $22,500 new and sold it 15 months 9K miles later for $20,500. While Accord has the sharpest exterior ( heavily borrowed from BMW 3 and 5 series) and exceptional resale value, I would seriousley consider Mazda 6 or Nissan Altima before buying an Accord. The seats are too narrow and Honda hasn't figured the seats right yet. I was not impressed with how the car bounced over slight highway bumpy roads with its 17" wheels and low profile tires......and that confusing transmission kept holding gears and downshifting on slight uphill driving on the only 570 highway trip we took. Honda should benchmark Mercedes for seat contour and comfort. My 2001 E430 has the most comfortable seats of any car/truck/SUV I have ever owned. Joe |

I watched the youtube video. Every Honda I have owned has done this. I don't understand what the problem is? My current Accord is a 04 and it does it but it has 84000 problem-free miles.

So I went to Honda last week to get the new Acura wheels put on and the guy told me the rotors on my car need to be lathed because when he applied the brakes at 70 or 80 mph it pulsated badly. I said I was just here 2 weeks ago for a B1 service and you said all brakes were fine. They said oh but we don't road test it. So I go back today for the brake service just because it was free, and they replace all 4 rotors, and all brake pads in the front and rear. They stated sometimes when the car is new and sits on the lot they get rusty. I said I have 17,000 plus on it. Well he said they were all pitted and rusty so we replaced all of them. Has anyone else had this problem.
