2007 Honda Civic Reviews - Page 2 of 11

Replaced after market brake pads at 77,000 km due to incessant squealing when applied. I recommend using only Honda OEM pads.

Seating is adequate, but can be uncomfortable on long drives.

Low stance makes getting in and out difficult for persons with physical limitations.

Combined city/hwy mileage in summer so far is 6.3 liters per 100 kilometers.

Rear brake bulb.

Pretty pleased with my purchase. The car can handle a corner like no one's business, very nice steering. If I only had to race people in corners, I'd win every time. The problem is the car has no pick-up leaving the corner, which makes sense being a four cylinder.

The ride quality is pretty average, but I'm pleased with the automatic transmission. Hard to go from the smooth ride of a Lexus to the Honda, the seats just aren't that comfortable. But I bought it for economic reasons, and it doesn't disappoint in that department. 25 MPG in the city, almost 40 on the highway. Sure wish I'd got one with a sunroof and possibly a 5 speed.

Only mistake I made with this car is I bought a car that was responsible, and not one I loved at first sight, so the car bores me. But that's kinda of what a Civic is; just a great, reliable, economical car. Very easy to change the oil yourself.

My next car will be one I love; the Acura TL I passed up because of cost, now that car was fun to drive.

I bought this car brand new, and have put 82,000 miles on it so far. I only had to replace two things; the brakes & rotors, and a set of tires.

This car has been very dependable, great on gas, 35-40 mpg all the time.

Very cheap to maintain. General maintenance is about it.

The car handles pretty well, and is fun to drive with the manual transmission.

Interior of the car is really nice for the price of the car.

Only one thing ever gave me a problem with this car, and that was a faulty gearbox at 30000km. Dealer was less than willing to repair it, less than 6 months after paying €28000 for it. Honda Ireland eventually got involved, and was waiting 2 weeks for a new gearbox to arrive from the UK.

Excellent car, good power and acceleration, with handling not as good as the previous Civic.

Fuel economy was excellent, with sometimes reaching 960km on a tank at 100km/h. The sixth gear really makes a difference on long motorway journeys.

Electrics and kit is great; worked perfect.

Always carry a spare litre of oil, as it will need regular topping up. HONDA A1.

Head gasket failed at 45,000.

Tires wear quickly.

Head gasket blew at 45,000. The car was under warranty, and Honda still refused to "participate" as they call it in expense to repair. Said there was a chance we could have overheated the car. The engine never got hot until after the head gasket blew.

Also very uncomfortable seats. The reason we purchased the car was because the wife wanted a gas mileage car for her and our 2 small kids to run to different activities. Honda has really let their quality slip the past few years. Tried to appeal their denial of warranty coverage, but no one will let you talk to district rep that denied, even though the rep never actually looked at car.

Also have 2 GM vehicles, and they have been very reliable.
