1994 Honda Accord DX SEDAN 4 cylinder

Summary:

Very poor, dismal, overrated garbage!! Never buy Honda!!

Faults:

Transmission failed at 50,000 miles.

Replacement transmission failed at 76,000.

2nd replacement transmission jerks and shudders.

Windows came off tracks.

Poor quality Factory stereo, cheap junk.

CV joints broke many times.

Weak air conditioner failed many times.

MAJOR RUST BUCKET, this car has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.

Poor performance and acceleration.

Engine ran horrible and would would not idle in cold weather.

Engine would not start below 20 degrees fahrenheit, dealer refuses to cover under warranty.

Brake rotors warped many times.

Sheet metal on car is to thin, like a soda can. You can almost dent it by looking at it.

Exhaust smelled like puke, rotten eggs, hot diesel, and dog crap. So much for hondas "clean for the environment image"

General Comments:

Honda's are cheap, overrated pieces of Japanese garbage. I'd rather buy a Yugo than buy honda. There was nothing good about this car. it sat in the shop more than it was on the road. I will never buy a rice burner again. If want want a reliable, fuel efficient car, get something other than Honda! GM, Ford and Chrysler will save you and your wallet a lot of heartache and pain!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

I agree with everything the reviewer said - it is absolutely true!!! My first honda was a piece of crap, and I made the mistake of replacing it with a newer honda - it too is a piece of junk (only bigger). These are cheaply built tin cans that fall apart easily and very costly to repair. Performance stinks. MPG is disappointing for 4 cylinder - my SUV gets same mpg. Very boring to drive. Over rated imported junk. Will never waste my money on these cars again.

1994 Honda Accord EX 2.2

Summary:

Great cars and great service, except one time

Faults:

Emergency brake accumulator.

Temperature gauge.

Fuel gauge.

General Comments:

Service support from Honda after the warranty is over is not available. Each dealership is owned by an individual and Honda Corporation will not support or even get involved if the dealership won't respond to the customers problem after the warranty period.

I have 2 Honda's now and I have had a total of 4 over the last ten years.

1994 Honda Accord LX 2.2 130 HP

Summary:

One of the most reliable cars ever made

Faults:

- Starter needed replacement.

- Cheap plastic parts and chrome paint falling apart inside.

- Annoying jerk from 1st to 2nd gear with high revs. Has nothing to do with my driving.

- Trunk will not close properly all the time.

General Comments:

The most reliable car one can buy. I don't care for its looks, but it performs well enough for a larger family sedan.

Like all hondas, it smells terrible after rain/humid weather.

Defrosting takes awhile.

It's not glamorous, but it does what it's supposed to do without much fault.

Although my car is not a 94 DX, it is a 96 LX coupe the defogging also is a problem. I'm not sure why, but the car also gets very stuffy even if its not humid.

1994 Honda Accord EX VTec (2.4?)

Faults:

I have never had anything go wrong with this car in 52,000 miles.

General Comments:

This is the best car I have ever owned.

With nothing but routine oil changes, it has never given me a problem in 52K miles. It's comfortable to take long trips in, and it handles quite well (I have the coupe). It has decent power for a V4, but I wish I would have waited another year and gotten the V6. I would recommend a Honda to anyone.

My 94 Accord EX has 75K miles on it, so far had to replace the water pump at approx. 52K miles, also the exhaust pipe starting from catalytic converter, the muffler, tailpipe and the resonator - rusted out.

Both front brake disks - wrapped twice, replaced, very noisy windows, had to turn up the radio to cover the outside noise.

The back brake/stop lights go out every 30K miles. Very easy to scratch paint on the body. Very easy to break/crack interior panel, too thin.

Other than that, just normal fluid changes, brake pad replacing.

Accord ESi 63000mls. I have also had problems with warped front brake discs. At present I have a problem with severe wobbling of the steering wheel at high braking speeds. The car has just passed the MOT and no problems showed up that would cause this. One theory is that there is a problem with the front hubs and/or bearing location as half the bearing is housed in the disc itself. If buying an Accord check the brakes very carefully. Apart from this problem I am very happy with the car for long distance cruising. The seats are very comfy although the leather is a little slippery. High speed cornering is not a strong point.
