Accord 2008 - 2010: Driver seat issues

[Hans Bond]

Trying to get a new car for my missus as she got back pain problem, I heard some reviews from the states (USDM) that the new accord driver seat is uncomfortable and causing severe pain for people who have back problem.

Is this also the case in Australia? Or we receive different seat than the states?

It depends on the person really. Some people find that the seat is uncomfortable, whereas I find it very comfortable, much better than many other cars. It comes down to body size and shape, and posture too.

^^^^^^^^what he said, our seat (AUSDM) is the same, quite hard. The first night i got my accord, i thought id made a mistake comming from a cushy magna seat.Now i find the seat very comfortable especially on long distances.Maybe your dealer can give you an extended test drive for your wife?

I find no issues with the seats.

Just purchased 2008 VTi-L last week and drive it around along weekend, I found the leather seat very comfortable and on top of that my missus had less back pain due to heated and comfy seat. Thanks for your opinion guys!
