1995 Honda Civic CX review from North America
"Needs to be driven off a cliff and put out of its misery!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
3, yes 3 head gaskets.
5 or 6 CV joints, I've lost count.
Water pump.
Fuel pump.
Brake rotors ALWAYS warp.
Transmission leak.
Engine refuses to idle correctly.
General comments?
Ugly and gutless. Get triple A if you buy a Civic, you will need it. By far, the worst performing car I've ever owned or seen. Fix one thing, and behold more and more engine problems.
Sheet metal is too thin, hail damage numerous times.
Engine bogs down when accelerating, like a rubber band is holding the car back. Or is it from mosquitos? Beats me.
All in all, Honda Quality is way overrated, and I will NEVER make this mistake again!
