QUOTE(jialitrading @ Jul 10 2017, 11:22 PM) My accord 2.0 VTIL end 2016, just 6 months old wth 7500KM is having Engine Leaking and Drive Shaft Leaking. Service Centre is claiming its a known issue of parts Engine Filter (not quite sure the parts name). It's leaking from there. As for DriveShaft it's a manufacture defect. I will talk to HQ tomorrow on how they going to resolve this matter. Really upset and disappointed. I will share the whole nightmare story from beginning, too stressful now can't write much now. Those new buyers, pls put hold on first. Or call Honda and ask if they have this known issue in Engine for accord. I will reconfirm the parts tomorrow. Let me the only victim. According to SC got few accord hit with this problem. Look how shit this Honda has became. Omg ..already do booking

My car clocked at 12K KM now and i have the steering vibration and some time i felt the car "wobble" on uneven road. Tried to check with honda SC and thier feedback was "It was normal. Design issue".

I mean bumpy ride .. you are speaking as the driver or as the passenger? if as a driver then Mazda but as a passenger, the Accord but then again, I am not sure if the term "comfortable" is the right word to describe the Mazda although the Mazda triumph in terms of driving dynamics but it isn't exactly comfortable, just overall much better driving experience.

Comfortable meaning to me is soft and easy ride for both driver and passenger. i found our accord too bumpy (mine 2.4 with 18" rim), the suspension is very busy for daily ride on Klang Valley road condition, but excellent on highway with smooth road surface.

QUOTE(tkyong1 @ Jul 18 2017, 02:36 PM) if you want a less bumpy ride then you can change to a higher ratio tire but that will take away some of the sporty appearance and also some ride handling especially when doing hard cornering.

Its been 3 years adey, driving the 9th gen accord. Still facing rattling at the engine bay as if there is some loose screw. Rattling at the rear deck...at the drivers door panel. Did some research and removed the rear deck myself... Nope, rattle still there. Its like the cover of the C pillar is hitting the rear window. Then the door panel at the driver side. Need to put some tape or spounge. But that will look ugly since the culprit is from the top edge of the plastic cover. Yup... This realy does suck

Honda Malaysia really needs to step up its Quality Control
Seems like the high volume production is a bane on QC as well as SC (crowded & poorly done as well)
