Quality made car

Reliability, comfort and performance...this car has it all. The 6-cylinder makes for power when you need it. Highway and mountain driving is a joy. A truly great car.

gear shifting problem

I have a Honda Accord 2002 , and i have some gear issue. Especially when the vehicle is cold , There is a stiff transfer Between first and second gear. When my foot is not on the gas pedal The gear transfers very smoothly Almost without feeling. Someone knows what the reason might be ? Someone has similar experience with that ? thanks ,

Transmission issues in the 100,000 mile plus range

Car is notorious for having issues with the transmission. Mine failed 500 miles after owning it. Have a mechanic inspect if your purchasing over 100,000.

Most reliable car I?ve owned

I?ve had this car for years and it?s never given me a problem I couldn?t fix myself. As a woman that means a lot with a car lol! It gets me where I need to be very smoothly. I?m holding on to my 2002 Honda Accord until the wheels fall off OR I trade her for a new Honda Accord.

most reliable car i have owned

This car is reliable. It has 262,000 miles and will go another 150,000 miles to 400K. It is comfortable and I have spent less than $200 a year on repairs (excluding oil changes). Great car.
