1991 Honda Accord EX review from North America
"A solid, reliable, fun to drive basic transportation"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Main relay left the car stranded at work.
Both front springs broke because of corrosion.
Front wheel bearing replaced around 115K.
Master cylinder failed around 200K.
Radiator replaced because of leak.
Power antenna became jammed.
These are all common problems with this generation accord.
General comments?
Other than the problems above this has been a very reliable auto.
Engine performance is solid, but handling is average compared to my previous Prelude.
Seats are v. comfortable on long trips.
Gas mileage has been very consistent.
