2001 Honda Civic LX review from North America

The car is extremely loud inside when driving over 45 mph.

The tires and rims that came on the car (after market, not stock) are very expensive to rotate, balance, replace.

Pot holes, even when going over at low speeds, excessively shake the entire car.

Radio and CD head unit have never worked; dealer takes no responsibility.

Interior has not held up well.

Cannot run air conditioner and gain speed at the same time; have to turn off air to get up a hill when starting from a still position.

Comfort of the car is non-existent. No where to rest arms at all. There is no comfortable position for me in relation to the pedals (either too close to the steering wheel or too far away from the pedals).

I have owned an Accord, Prelude and another Civic. I have never been as disappointed with any of the other cars; however, this one I am not very pleased with overall.

I do not typically used Honda dealers for service due to the expensive cost. When this car was under warranty, I did arrange for necessary service at a dealership. Based on the level of "valued customer service" that I receive.
