1989 Honda Civic LX review from North America

What things have gone wrong with the car?

All fuel injectors are down! It costs me a lot of money to fix it.

Two suspensions (front side) were replaced.

Engine noise is annoying. Automatic transmission "hesitates" when gears are changed.

General comments?

I wouldn't have expected this bad from Honda, a company always proud of their sleek engineering. This car is the worst car I ever had. Lots of problems like noise, hesitation, underpowered etc
