I love close to everything about my Accord. One constant annoyance for me is the center console door. I can't get it to open unless I press precisely in the bottom middle where the latch is located. I often find myself pressing the darn thing multiple times before I can get it to open.

The dealer took a look at mine and repicatred the issue. They looked at three other Accords on the lot and found the same issue. The dealer concluded it was a design flaw (or just annoying design) and could not propose a fix.

I would be interested to know if anyone else is having this same issue.

I think they all operate like that. But, I've never had any problem nor frustration opening mine.

What you are experiencing is normal... once you get used to hitting the "sweet" spot to open it, it will no longer be a problem or concern.

This is common for a lot of cars with a similar center console setup. With more practise I'll bet it'll become a non issue.

Thanks for all the feedback. Good to know this is common/expected.

Do you have a 6 Speed? Everything works perfect on the 10 Speed Auto.

I do have a six speed. Guess I just need to get used to this. Just a minor annoyance anyhow.

I have the sam problem with the console door getting stuck closed. I own a 2018 accord Exl 2.0t.

I always have mine open but as others mentioned this is common.
