Honda Insight 2012 Seats Review #10468173
HONDA INSIGHT 2012 car safety problem was reported on July 28, 2012.HONDA INSIGHT 2012, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with SEATS . within a few weeks of purchasing my honda insight, i began to develop lower back pain related to sitting in the driver's seat. not only is there a general lack of cushioning in the base of the seat which alone would be frustrating, but there also is a rigid lower back / lumbar support that is extremely uncomfortable. this is the first time that i can recall where i have had an issue with a car seat. there unfortunately is no apparent method to adjust the amount of lower back support, and modifying the position of the seat has proven fruitless. i believe that the design of the seat is flawed. *js.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 400 miles.
