2001 Honda Accord EX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Paint on the front Bumper chipped off two weeks after I got it.
SRS Light came on and would not go off.
A lot of wind noise on the interstate.
The car does not handle well in wet weather.
Had to have the dashboard replaced due to a air bubble in the center of the dash.
General comments?
I bought this car in Feb 2001, I traded a 1996 Honda Civic EX Coupe with 298,000 miles on it. Best car I ever owned.
This Honda is cheaply made, and the sound system is horrible.
It has no pick-up.
The seats feel like cardboard.
Front end alignment is impossible to keep.
Windows squeek when they are going up.
When the car shifts from gear to gear it jerks very bad.
This is my 3rd Honda to own, and will be my last Honda to own.
