1990 Acura Integra LS review from North America
"The car is neat to drive, but the maintenance costs are overwhelming"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The transmission began slipping at the 261,000 mile mark.
The transmission was replaced at 261,150 miles.
The cable for the gear shift went out.
The driver power window motor went out.
The distributor had to be replaced.
The left front wheel bearing went out.
The carrier bearing went out.
The power antenna is faulty.
The car leaks if it rains hard.
The driver seat is badly worn.
The paint had almost completely faded.
General comments?
This car was bought because of its expected good reliability.
Due to the excessive repair costs, purchasing this car has proven to be a bad move.
The power windows, door locks, power mirrors, cruise control, and power antenna although faulty, still works.
I bought this car for my daughter to provide transportation until she finishes college.
The cost of repairs have now exceeded what we originally paid for the car.
