2008 Honda Accord Reviews - Page 7 of 9

Not a thing.

I love this car. I think the restyle is great inside and out. Very roomy and form fitting.

Not the most power in the world, but it suits my needs. Also I drive highway most of the time, and on my first tank got 32 mpg.

Test drove a Camry and Malibu, but the Accord blew me away.

The only thing I don't like is placement of the A/C knobs. Hard to reach them from the drivers side.

Looking forward to putting a few 100,000 miles on this one.

Coolant leaking from head gasket at only 5,000 miles! replaced under warranty.

Brakes shudder now starting at only 8800 miles.

Transmission shifts jerky and can't seem to find or stay in the right gear, dealer acknowledges but can't find cause of problem. They're debating right now whether or not to replace the transmission.

What was Honda thinking with the styling? I thought it would grow on me, but it hasn't. It reminds me more of a cheap Saturn than a honda. Not that my previous minivan was an attention getter, but at least I could depend on it. My husband talked me into buying this car with him, because of high gas prices. Honda needs to realize some cars are just too ugly, no matter how cheap or "green" environmentally friendly they are.

Well I will say it gets good fuel mileage, especially while sitting in the shop for days at a time not running! We needed a larger sedan to replace our "gas-guzzling" Chevy Astro, which by the way had no major problems even at 180,000 miles. Time is money for me too, and I'm not saving either with a car in the shop for days at a time. If these problems don't get resolved, I will file for buyout under lemon law. And if my husband tries to talk me into buying a Prius or Fit, I'm filing for divorce!

Nothing yet, as we really haven't had time to evaluate this factor.

Our dealer loaned us the Accord for a couple of days, just to drive around in and to make sure we liked it. After two days... we loved it.

Awesome engine (goes like a rocket with a feeling of continuous torque).

The seats are comfortable, the car handles extremely well and is very quiet.

I have this overwhelming feeling that we will have this vehicle for a very long time to come.

I shall keep you informed as we get more miles on it.

Very quick. Very responsive. It's a Honda - what more can I say. However, it is a bit early to tell. I shall write more as we get more miles on the car.
