1991 Honda Civic DX review from North America
"Piece of junk!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A couple of weeks after purchasing the car everything started to go wrong. In the last year I have had to change my brakes three times (and still have problems),alternator, shocks, gaskets, belts, ignition, all of my tail lights, fuel pump, A/C system, and have had multiple transmittion problems. It also has noises coming from all over. The only reason I got rid of my dodge stratus was because I wreaked it and I knew the person who owned the civic before me. They said it was a realiable car. Not!!!
General comments?
This car has left me on the side of the road 4 times and have spent thousands of dollars on it. It now has 80,000 miles on it a burns a quart of oil a week. The engine starts when it wants and dies while going down the road. I have brought it to the dealer may times and they tell me nothing is wrong. Honda cars are very poorly built. I should have stayed American!!
