1996 Honda Accord LX Coupe from North America - Comments

"With gas prices the way they are today, I'm glad I own this and not something bigger!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Not much, aside from the oil seal recall back in 2001.

The one nagging problem is the brakes. They are always warped! No matter how many pad and rotors I put on, they warp with in a month or so. This is driving me crazy. I am now looking into up dating the brakes to make those on a 2000 or newer model Accord work on mine, hopefully to solve this problem.

5th gear is very weak compared to some of the other car's I driven. There is not much pull.

General comments?

This is the most reliable car I've owned.

Doesn't cost a whole lot to fill up at the gas pump either.

I drive the hell out of this car and it keeps on going.

If I ever decide to get rid of this car, and I'm in the market for another regular car, it will probably be another used Honda. I didn't even buy this from a dealer, I wasn't worried about reliability problems before I bought this car.

The only thing wrong in your statement is that if you have an automatic, it is a 4 speed not a 5 speed.
