1996 Honda Accord LX review from North America

At just before 100,000 miles, the car's harmonic balancer went out, which in turn busted two of my oil seals. All of the sudden my oil light comes on. Well, I just had an oil change, so I thought something went wrong there. I put more oil in the engine and brought it to my mechanic. By the time I got it to him, the low gear cylinder was cracked. Replaced the engine with another Honda Accord engine with roughly 33,000 miles on it. About 8 months later, received a recall on the harmonic balancer for my old engine. About a month after that, the same thing happened to the "new" engine, luckily I didn't blow a cylinder this time.

Honda payed to fix my car the second time. Trying to get back the over $2000 I spent fixing the problem the first time. They are only willing to pay back about 10% of what I've put out so far.

Another minor note, the car is low in the front and tends to scrape bottom when crossing dips.

If Honda had just made this right to begin with, I would have no qualms about buying another Honda. I've really enjoyed the car other than those two incidents, which I've been very distraught over. However, I don't want to deal with a company that will not make things right.
