2009 Honda Accord consumer reviews

Was in bad need of a new car, something reliable and in my budget since I work quite a distance away. I had searched for a very long time to stumble upon the right payment and most economical car for me , these franchise dealers do not take the time and effort that I was looking for within this purchase. The staff at Roadmasters 2 was friendly, They explained my options according to my credit and helped me get a car I truly loved . Im very happy with the price , the style and the dealer overall.

Ilove the car and it was a great deal for the money. Mine was certified and I like having a warranty

Absolutely love it. Has some pep in its step, the air conditioner doesn't get hot when I step on the gas :). Extremely reliable, smooth & comfortable ride. Great on gas in the city.

I bought this car brand new in 2009, and the problems started right away, luckily for me I purchased the extended warrantee. It all started when I brought it in for an oil change, they told me I needed new breaks and I barely has 15K on the car, I had to pay for new breaks out of pocket and they told me to contact corporate Honda but they could not give me the phone number. Then my check engine light started turning on, and my car would be out of oil, yet the light for needing an oil change would not be on. Then I needed my brakes changed in another 15K and had to pay out of pocket and contact Honda again. Then my check engine light started blinking, and my spark plugs went at 30K, another Honda issue, since spark plugs should last 100K. I am selling my car before the warrantee is up, and I will NEVER buy another Honda.

very reliable, the gas mileage is great, very sporty suspension. sound system isn't that good though, no complains so far

Great value for the amount of money spent. I bought this car with 25,000 miles on it. It is three years old. Great gas mileage with all of the comfort and room of a mid sized car. I got the EX L package. Absolutely love it!!!!

The V-6 engine was very responsive and a pleasure to drive with the upgraded engine package. Gas mileage was average, 22-24 mpg average in mixed driving. The car had above average road noise, which was a disappointment. The interior control panels were really busy, poor design. Radio speakers weren't crisp, reception for the radio was just fair, however did have the thump with the sub woofer. Headlights weren't bad but no match for xenons. Moon roof made a lot of noise when tipped open from the back. The car was top heavy in cornering and caught by the wind easily. Cornering was spongy and little steering feel or balance. Brakes were average and sometimes left you feeling a little out of control with four adults in the car. Exterior handles in chrome felt cheap. Leather showing wear at 25,000 miles on the passenger seat. Poor in the snow! Under steer in any kind of snow or ice, no traction control to speak of. The Accord clearly isn't a driver's car but just a commuter vehicle with rather stodgy looks.

This car was not for me... i returned it after 3 weeks! I didn't realize it at first because i was so thrilled with the way the outside looked, but after a couple of days it really started to annoy me. I would hear noises like a whinning noise from the engine when you are using the gas, You can literally hear the wheels turning at any speed...even with all the windows up and the sunroof closed. I asked my mechanic why and he said "Honda's are just noisy cars" I would never ever buy a Honda, I cant for the life of me figure out how they earned their reputation. BTW, this car was brand new!!!

Bought car in Sept and I can tell you, I will never buy a Honda AGAIN. So far we have had the car back to the dealer four times and it will be number five tomorrow. We have called honda customer service and they SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO CORRECT THE NUMEROUS ISSUES WITH THE CAR. The car stearing wheel shakes violently, honda replaced new roaters, pads, calipers and bearings so far. It is going back in tomorrow for the same issue, and in addition, the car now stalls at red lights/stop signs. I can say one thing I am glad we bought the extended warranty because it will be back to the dealer every day until they get it fixed. Honda certified means NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leased this triple black EX for 3 years - The 4 cylinder is peppy, and it drives nice, firm steering, nice trunk space. Tires run out of tread after 20,000 miles. The interior is boring, the cloth is cheap and theres no foam in the seats so you feel all the bumps. The rear brakes went out at 14K miles, the company said it was supposed to be fixed when I took it in at the 10K check point as per the manual. I didnt take it in so I had to fully replace the brakes and rotors ? Really ? Next the IP blinked and car shut off while I was driving. Lastly the gas cap wouldnt open - cable broke, so I ran out of gas. Dealership fixed, but wouldnt reimburse the towing. Al in all - I think the Honda Accord has lost its reliability and quality measures, and isnt worth its price when you can purchase all the new models out now.
