What things have gone wrong with the car?

EVERYTHING! THIS CAR BLOWS CHUNKS!

My engine overheated because of a bad hose and the head cracked. I went to dealer and crazy people charge me 7,200.00 to fix this thing. OMG! I never had a worse vehicle because that wasn't the only thing. It couldn't move out of it's own way and made too many noises that it made me nervous. oh sheesh... don't buy this.

General comments?

Pretty much everything is bad, ripped seats, my exhast broke off at 100,00 mls when I hit a bump, mirror broke and I put it back on with zip ties. I just don't know sighhhhh. OK, one rim bent, engine blew, radio was stolen and didn't work anyway, blow speakers, 2 windows would now go down, hit bumps and the car makes really scary noises, someone told me that it was prolly a bad motor mount I don't know. well I could've made it futher with a shopping cart...

Wow, I have three of these 94-97 and the only common thing of the three is needing an exhaust system after ten years. My '94 lost its exhaust at 210,000 miles, '97 @ 94,000 miles, '96 @ 140,000 miles. These cars have been pretty trouble free and my family has saved a lot of money when we changed over to Honda from GM on maintenance. I work at a home improvement store and I see people putting way too much weight into their cars and that is probably why they break because of user error. I saw a '95 Honda Civic the other day with back touching the ground and four large people inside and full of cement bags and granted it will probably put a toll on the engine and transmission this shows what people do to their cars and why they break.
