1999 Honda Civic EX review from North America
"A slow, reliable, rattle box"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Dash Rattles Terribly
Car Shakes Violently
Another Dash Rattle When AC is On
Rear Deck Lid Rattles
Suspension Squeaks
Poor working AC
Tranny Feels Notchy
3rd Gear Syncro is going bad.
General comments?
If you want a slow car that will pretty much run forever, this is the car for you. As long as you can stand all of the little quirks and problems it WILL run forever. It just won't run like you want it to.
I regret buying this car and plan on selling it sometime soon. The only thing I have really enjoyed about it is the gas mileage. Thankfully, the car has atleast held its value well so I can sell it for almost what I paid for it.
