  Headlight performance - 2008 Honda Accord
  By st1300 - July 10 - 12:10 am

  Bought this car when they first came out. After a couple of months noticed the headlights flickering. Honda WILL NOT fix this car so it is now going to arbritration. This car is a disaster... road noise is horrible, stereo sucks, terrible gas mileage etc. Do not buy this car.

  Used to love Honda..! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By triton189 - November 18 - 9:23 am

  This is my Third Honda Accord and by far it is the worst. I cant believe it! I had an "01" and "04" without any problems. I have had this vehicle a little over a year with 28,000 miles. The first "major" concern is the VCM engine. The vehicle surges at Highway speeds between 60-70 mph. It is enough to drive you insane....! Second is the wind noise on the drivers side. The brakes also are terrible...! I had to have the front replaced and the rotors turned at 20K miles. Now the back brakes are acting the same way at 27,800 miles. I have leather seats and it is like sitting on aluminum seats at a high school football game (Hard as a Rock). I will not consider Honda for my next vehicle..!

  My Honda Accord LX-P - 2008 Honda Accord
  By kingule - August 31 - 3:36 pm

  All I can say is stay away from this vehicle. 1) Road noise= Loud 2) Vehicle Ride= Very bumpy. 3) Headlights= DIM. For your safety, do not drive this car at night on back roads. 4) Gas Mileage= Poor. 20 - 21 mpg no matter what the driving conditions, even with cruise control on the highway. 5) Seats= Like sitting on a church pew. 6) Rattles,Rattles and Rattles again 7) Horrible wind noise OK, now some positive things: Will be happy when I get rid of it!!!

  Honda Accord - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Mike - May 5 - 10:40 pm

  Ive had 2 Accords before this one, both of them were 2002, and both were leagues better than this one. This car had rattles at 500 miles and has horrible performance even for a four cylinder. The car hesitates when accelerating. When paying 22k for a new car, it should be solid and not have any squeaks or rattles. I am very disappointed with this car. On top of all this, I get horrible gas mileage; in city driving I get 15-16 mpg. Apparently the car isnt broken in yet, but I know someone who has a new 4 cyl Accord which is past the break-in period, and he also gets around 17 mpg. I would NOT recommend this car to anyone. Go for the Camry; I test drove it, and its much better than this car

  Trouble with rear brakes - 2008 Honda Accord
  By zion kodary - July 4 - 11:46 pm

  This car has brake problems and transmission problems. Does not shift correctly; it gets stuck on 3rd gear.

  Not worth it - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Rick - April 23 - 8:30 pm

  Right from the start, I began having problems. The drivers seat does not adjust properly and the factory and dealership would not change it which gave me lots of back aches. Gas mileage is horrible on highway at 21 mpg. Drivers seat does not go back far enough. Engine performance is very lacking. This car has the 6-4-3 eco system. Do not buy it. When gas pedal is floored abruptly, the engine pauses for several seconds then slowly gains speed. The transmission does not downshift properly... If youre in drive and you decide to floor the gas pedal at 10 mph, the transmission stays in 3rd gear and does not shift lower unless you do it manually. Will not buy another Honda unless changes.

  Would not buy again - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Rick Kirchoff - March 3 - 8:20 am

  This car lacks the performance and handling of previous years. Gas mileage is horrible too, 20 mpg city/highway after 6000 miles. Passing gear seldom works when needed. Drivers seat is not fully adjustable using 8-way power seat which is very uncomfortable. Shift- hold-control prevents coasting after hard acceleration. Reminds me of driving a boat, have to think several miles ahead if you want to do something. Car is not as nimble- footed as previous years. Daytime running lights..yuck!!! Automatic mirror dimming does not work during daylight hours and performs poorly at night.

  Defective brake system! - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Chad - November 2 - 4:53 pm

  Only had the car for 6 months and the right rear inner pad needs to be replaced already. I bought the car brand new and now only has 14,000 miles. Honda is NOT doing anything about this known issue problem. If you google "2008 Honda Accord brake problem" you will see a thousand complaints about the defective brake system.

  Review @ 18k Miles - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Matt - June 18 - 6:53 pm

  So after 18k miles my review still doesnt get any better. The gas mileage has improved from 18MPG to 21 but that still is not good. I currently need new brakes (front & back) which ive never had to get brakes before 30k miles. I do not have a heavy foot for braking. The vibration between 60-70 MPH still exists. Acceleration seems to be getting weaker and weaker. Road noise in the beginning was bad now its even worse.

  Oil burner - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Ed K - April 28 - 9:36 pm

  Honda quality is not what they advertise it to be. They maybe at one time produced high quality engines but not anymore. My 2008 Accord EX-L V6 burns and consumes one quart of oil per 1000 mile. Their technical experts state that is normal. I definitely don’t recommend this car.
