1996 Honda Accord LX review from North America

"The car that can get up and go"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The car has Been absolutly solid, except for power accessories like...

The power window on the drivers door will most likely go out in a few days, but I think the window motor is fine, the problem is, the fact that the window gets crooked and creates friction that can be easily alligned.

The drivers power door lock went out and the dealer said 249.95 wich practically made me want to kill myself, and one day I was at a little alarm repair shop and they said they would fix it for 69.95, but the other day I was at target and all the suddenmy cars power lock relay (forall you non-car inclined people it's the thing that controls all the locks) had a glitch in it and I could not get out of my car (how embarassing) and I was forced to roll down my window, stick the key in the door from the outside and unlock it and it made this knocking noise, but since then it hasn't done anthing elese wrong.

General comments?

My paragraph above about things that went wrong, looks long, but really its only two thingswhich if you get them repaired professonally it will be about 500.00 and trust me on this Just go to your local honda dealer they are truly expertsand know what thier doing.

Hey, but don't let that make you think this car is not reliable, no, no, no, this car has never been on a tow except for the time it was in a fenderbender in n.y.c. (new york city) and even then it held up wellthe othe guy was driving a hundai sonota and his was so low in value (and it was only 3 1/2 yrs. old) that the insurance company totaled and it was his fault for the accident.

Allaround this is a solid car its comfy and small children are well acomidated in the back, but it's a chore for the adults. And the a/c works awsome allthough it does take a while to cool down. But promise me this before you go and buy one read the new car testdrive review of this car by professinals at www.newcartestdrive.com.
