1998 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Reliable, but no "kick" whatsoever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power windows have to be "reset" after an electrical job. Dealers thrice forgot it and I had to return to have them fixed. It's a quick fix, but annoying.
I had to replace the front brakes at 85,000 miles.
I had to replace the starter at 85,000 miles.
Dealer recommended an induction service at 93,000.
General comments?
Generally reliable, but no "ummppff"
I feel the engine of my LX is too weak for the huge boat like body it has. It's hard to get a real kick out of this car.
Also, the car is really noisy.
