MY MAIN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE IS THE SEATING, SPECIFICALLY THE DRIVERS SEAT. I CAN HONESTLY SAY ITS THE WORST SEATING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED IN A VEHICLE. THIS IS VERY SURPRISING, ESPECIALLY SINCE IM TALKING ABOUT A 2012 HONDA ACCORD! WHILE THE SEAT IS RELATIVELY COMFORTABLE IN SHORT TRIPS, ANY LONGER TRIPS (GREATER THAN 30 MINUTES) PLAYS HAVOC ON MY BODY. IM A MALE OF AVERAGE HEIGHT (5 FOOT 10 INCHES) AND WEIGHT (170 LBS) A LONG TRIP IN THIS VEHICLE CAUSES SORENESS IN MY LOWER BACK, NECK AND NUMBNESS IN MY LEGS. I HAVE TRIED TO MAKE SEVERAL ADJUSTMENTS TO THIS SEAT TO ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM BUT HAVE HAD NO SUCCESS. MY WIFE ALSO HAS SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE SEATING AND THE EFFECT ON HER BODY. IN DEFENSE OF HONDA, I HAVE NOT BROUGHT THIS ISSUE TO THEIR ATTENTION. HOWEVER, AFTER READING HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB CONCERNING THIS SEATING ISSUE AND HONDAS RESPONSE TO THEIR COMPLAINTS, MY ATTEMPT TO HIGHLIGHT THIS PROBLEM TO HONDA WOULD MOST CERTAINLY FALL ON DEAF EARS. I HAVE READ "HOME REMEDIES" FOR MAKING MODIFICATIONS TO THE SEAT TO INCREASE COMFORT BUT SHOULD I HAVE TO RESORT TO SUCH MAINTENANCE? NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO IMPROVE THE SEATING IN THIS CAR SHORT OF REPLACING THE SEAT. *TR
