1996 Honda Accord EX review from North America
"Comfortable and Extremely Reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CV Boots and both Axles had to be replaced at 140,000 Miles.
Other than regular maintenance, I have had no other problems.
General comments?
The seats are very comfortable even on long trips.
Controls are all easily displayed and within reach.
Very large trunk space which comes in handy.
Also handles well for a bigger family oriented car.
Very easy to find a shop that will do work on a Honda for cheap.
