I appreciate the level-headed input. I have not considered that the car may need to break in to get rid of the annoying vibrations and hums. I will keep hoping. My final comment will be how disappointed I am that Honda does make this system with the ability to disable it. The viability, purpose, need, etc. of the system can be debated all day long. What is stupid, idiotically stupid, and beyond comprehension to me is why they did not make this system so that it can be defeated. I suppose that would admit defeat and based on the way Japanese Toyota employees in my neighborhood act, that may be something they are unable to grasp. I don't mean that disrespectfully. These guys are very cocky and I would expect them to be insanely proud of their products. Anyway, I'll just hope it gets better.

I truly hope for your sake that it does too. I have driven them with and without the annoying behavior - sorry you were one of the unlucky ones. Another poster here with serious problems seemed to narrow it down to cars with navigation versus those without. Nothing scientific there - and makes no sense at all. The break in thing seemed to make some sense, and if yours continues to cause you problems I would insist on new engine mounts as a first step toward a solution.
 
All that said, I would certainly get it on record at the dealership about your displeasure and protect any lemon law rights you might have in your state. I read too here where someone from Georgia succeeded in getting Honda to have to buy back the car there. It is in an earlier post in this forum.

The car that was supposedly bought back in Georgia was a 4 cylinder with the headlight dimming issue. Not a VCM Accord.

I went to the dealer on Saturday, and I went for a ride with one of their mechanics. During the 6 miles testing, it surged twice, but he said he doesn't feel it.
They asked me to leave the car to run the computer diagnostic test. They called me back in the evening and told me the test doesn't give any errors, and the surgings that I felt are "normal VCM operation".
I guess I have to live with it. $30,000 mistake!!

I too have the same problems with my 2008 V6 Honda Accord 4000 kms- Vibrations, Humming Noise, rattling middle console and glove box, brakes squealing and when I locked the car with the key fob, all four windows opened six inches and sun roof opened three inches. What I can't understand is why no one has tried to start a class action suit against Honda America in the United States.

Hahaha... This is a sarcasm, isn't it? But I agree with you: Why haven't we heard of any lawsuit if the problems are so widespread.
