1990 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Great on gas but not worth the risk of a folding car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission died.
AC needed charging.
Leaky Valve cover.
Exhaust pipe fell.
Leaky trunk.
Car was T-boned.
General comments?
When the transmission was replaced the car performed very well.
This car was hit by a Crown Victoria Taxi in Queens, NY and the car was considered totaled.
These cars fold bad in an accident and the rear door flies open in a side impact!
