2001 Honda Accord EX review from North America
"Good All around vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leather seat starting to wear at seam.
Steering wheel starting to split a little bit at the seam.
Rattle coming from the driver & passenger sides where the roof meets the door pillar.
Transmission shifts irregularly.
General comments?
Overall, this is a good vehicle for reliability and looks. I don't regret buying this car because it does have the Honda name and it should last me "forever". I wish it had a little bit more horsepower in the lower end range. Handling is OK, this car is pretty stiff around turns due to it's body style and high profile tires. I've only driven the car 8,000 miles and I'm just praying I don't run into problems with the car in the future... for example with the transmission... it does shift unlike anything I've ever driven.
Everything else is awesome with the car, the interior is cool, digital temperature control, traction control system, stylish exterior...it's a good all around car... just with it had the low end power that my friend's Maxima has...
