My wife who is either 5'1" or 5'2" and thin to normal build sat in a 2009 Honda 4 door EX and said she could not reach the gas pedals. What honda car are we talking about here? Are you talking about the van? It has adjustable pedals. What part of 2009 Honda 4 door EX do we not understand????? |
We did not get the car MODEL so we do not know if this was
accord, civic, fit or whatever other honda which comes in EX trim.
Do *you* understand now what we do not understand?

I was thinking of a cushion between the seat and her back or one she sits on and supports her back. Does such a cushion exist? |
since it would allow her to sit safely away from the airbag in the
steering wheel (short people are more likely to be injured by airbags
because they often sit too close to the steering wheel).
The other issue to consider is whether a short person can sit high
enough to see out of the car in all directions.

I'm 5'3" and considering buying a 2009 Accord sedan EX - please tell me the seats can accomodate my height. |
find out. Hell, they'll probably even let you take one out for a
drive, for no additional charge...

According to the sales person, he said that is the 2nd time he heard of this. Apparently the power seats don't get as close to the pedals as the non-power seats. Can anyone confirm this? I don't recall how far her feet were from the pedals (she thinks one to two inches) so rather than mess with modifying the seats which the salesperson said they can do (I'm leery of this approach for the warrantee and perhaps leakage depending how they do it), I was thinking of a cushion between the seat and her back or one she sits on and supports her back. Does such a cushion exist? Any suggestions aside from not getting the 4 door EX model? get a taller wife? |
short, in other words) is happily driving one now with no
modifications that I'm aware of.
