2002 Honda Accord consumer reviews

104,000 miles - no problems. Regular maintenance - change oil & fluids, new battery, new tires, a new headlight bulb. Previous car was a 1992 Camry which I loved. When it came time for a new car, I went back to the Toyota dealer. They wouldn't budge on their price. I got a better deal with Honda

Honda Accord EX is a great car. Very clean, New Timing belt, serviced regularly. Runs perfectly, clean inside.

I won't buy anything but Hondas after owning an Accord. They are reliable, safe, and retain their value. Love them!

I will never buy another Honda product. I have had to have the transmission rebuilt twice in this vehicle. Once at 77,00 miles, and again at 103,00. American Honda offered no assistance when I contacted them. Search the internet and you'll find numerous complains about problems with failed transmission on this model. I'm going back to Toyota for my next car purchase.

I bought my 2002 Accord coupe new and have since put over 239,000+ miles on it and have not had one single problem with the car. It still drives like it did when new. The 4cyl along with the 5speed gives me 36 mpg still! I would never buy anything else but a honda. I would recommend the 98-02 Accord to anyone, but only the 5speed 4cyl as the V6 automatic's have had a poor reliability record for transmission problems. I also have a 1999 Honda passport with 183,000 trouble free miles.

I am 49 years old and have allways had a honda in the driveway.Being a GM owner for life,(experienced) in cars, Honda's are Far better.My wife drives a 02 accord v6 with 184,000 miles at TROUBLE FREE!WOW.and yes only 1 small trans problem at 84000 miles,It's just a flaw in 99-2002 yrs.so what! My experience in Honda's are BULLET PROOF Hands down. Resale value Allsome.I've owned 3 Accords,put over 250,00K on them in a lifetime,1 accord went 310,000 Trouble free,Just regular maintance!I LOVE my GMC truck and Tahoe,But Honda's have them beat HANDS DOWN!!! Now go figure, and you do the Math.

To anyone who is looking to get a Honda Accord DONT GET the 98 or 02 it has Transmission Problems Like no Tomorrow I Bought the 02 Coupe Was Happy with it when it was under 100k, after that all i got was problem after problem. If You want to get a Honda Accord i would Recomend the 2004 Sedan, WOW that car is AMAZING, Handeling is insane Performance is Nice. Long Story Short PROBLEMS PROBLEMS AND MORE PROBLEMS !!!!!

This is the 2nd accord I've owned after switching from a different make. A little on the pricey side compared to other sedans and coupes but it's worth the money! The car retains its value spectacularly and the performance and reliability can't be beat.

I would suggest to everyone who is thinking to buy a honda accord, to buy extra coverage especially on transmission, I bougt a accord in 2001 and when it reaches 45,000 miles i had transmission problems.Luckly i still had manufactured coverage and they replaced it whithout cost to me.Now that i see other ratings on this car, i noticed that it wasn't only me with this type of problems.I also need to mention that after they replaced the transmission, i have never had any other problems with my car, now my car has 80k. I really like Honda brand but they need to really work on transmissions.

After five and a half years or meticulous maintenance, the transmission on my 2 door accord V6 failed at 70,000 miles. Honda has no explanation for why such a thing would happen except to say that my car was in an accident five years ago so they could no longer guarantee anything about the car. When I pointed out that they had to extend the warranty on the 2000-2001 V6 accords for similar problems and that I was aware that my vehicle had the same transmission type, the only answer they could give was that my VIN number was not included in that warranty extension. I've reviewed this problem online as well as with the NHTSA and the BBB who reveal hundreds of other accord owners with the same complaint of transmission failure at low mileage. This was a great car until now and I'm disturbed by Honda's refusal to stand behind their quality reputation for vehicle longevity and replace what they know is an inherently defective part. I would caution all future buyers about the customer service of this corporation.
