Description of the problem | I commute almost 2 hours to work and then 2 hours back each day. Therefore, i traded my silverado for a 2012 civic for the gas mileage. I bought the car used in may of 2014. It was the second civic on the lot that i test drove. I did not notice anything amiss about either car during the test drives. However, on my first trip home from work i noticed that i felt like my butt was sinking further into the seat and my legs began to ache really bad. Also, the lumbar support is far less than desirable. So far the only fix i have come up with is to lay folded towel down in the seat. But sometimes the towel moves or becomes unfolded. I am still searching for a more permanent solution to the problem. Honda needs to fix the uncomfortable seats. |
