1998 Honda Accord LX Sedan review from North America

Timing belt broke at 20,000 miles.

Fuel leak in the engine compartment!

Transmission shifts erratically.

A/C compressor seized twice (2 new A/C's needed).

Transmission leak twice.

Rack and pinion steering failed.

Front axle seized.

Honda badging fell off.

Hood shocks failed (both).

Windshield wiper arms failed.

Headlights poorly aligned from factory.

Exterior light bulbs blown (6 new bulbs needed).

CLimate control failed, and somehow locked itself onto full heat on a 105 degree july day!!!

Catalytic converter failed twice.

Door moulding fell off.

Door seals are coming off.

This car's been in the shop more than 15 times, 10 of which we needed a rental car. The rental company even gave us a discount for being their most valuble customer.

On two separate occasions, I have hard the car to just stop on me while on the interstate. The car would just die. The dash board would be lit up, but the car would come to a rolling stop.

You may save money when you buy the car, but in the long run a Japanese competitor will save you a lot of hassle.

Regret buying this car and would not recommend it to anyone. As soon as it is paid off, I am going to get rid of it.
