For starters, could we say that Honda is not meeting the terms of its warranty, by not remedying something in their product that is injuring purchasers?
 
Just playing devil's advocate with ya here; I've driven a 2008 Accord and ddin't notice a problem, but it was only a ten minute for-fun test drive. EX, cloth, 4-cylinder.
 
People every day I'm sure buy office furniture which isn't conducive to proper spinal health, but you don't hear about anybody suing over that. I realize that this would be a $25,000 office chair, but still - I really think this is just going to be a tough case for a lawyer to even take, much less win. I wish you the best, and certainly hope your pain in the backside (literal and figurative alike) goes away.
 
Thanks for replying,

If Honda only satisfied 1/2 of its purchasers in general, it wouldn't still be in business!

2009 accord bad seats by dansdad

My wife just bought a 2009 accord and I will tell you the seats are terrible. Hard as a rock!! This is an EX-L, looks good, handles well on all roads, if you can stand the seats. Dont believe me just go to Edmunds and check it out. Wish I had, but she loves it and its her car so.... I'll buy my own and not share hers. Just my 2 cents.

Dansdad,
 
I got the Accord '08 EX-L V6 and felt terrible with the "hard rock" driver seat for the first 2 or 3 days. Now, I got used to it and the seat leather became softer. I feel comfortable now. I guess Honda built them to last.

I am hoping it will work in but its not really on the sides but mainly where the top seat meets the bottom. It's like there is no padding at all. Also I read the '08 got great reviews on Consumer Reports. Maybe they did something in '09. Dave

Seat used to hurt my "butts" and back for the first couple of days. Now, it's good. Car handling is tight and it's much better than the older Accords V6 EX-L I have in term of power and almost other aspects. As a friendly reminder to you, tires for this model will be a bit expensive. I checked them out yesterday.

I think the seats do take some getting used to as they aren't sofa-like as in the Camry... I for one would rather have a slightly less comfortable seat then a bad car such as nearly all Chrysler products (excluding some Jeep models). Just my two cents.

I know...and I agree the Accord is an excellent car its just I'm amazed Honda didn't do a better job on comfort for '09. I have a '97 Accord myself with 235,000 miles and it's much more comfortable. Guess I just expected better.

My mom has an 08 LXP sedan, and uses a small back pillow sometimes... maybe something such as this would be of help...
 
I find the seats in my 09 EXL-V6 coupe seem more comfortable than those in her sedan, did you try out the cloth seats as well ?

No my wife wanted leather. I'm for cloth but like I say it's her car, and thats what she wanted.
