Re: 1992 Honda Civic VX- Brake lights- need help please!! [dfwlova]

Written by: lmoreno3 on Nov 18, 2009 06:35 AM

Greeting, I was having the same problems with my wife's '94 Civic. I found out that it was the plastic cap on the brake light switch that was broken off, that is why the lights always stayed on. I replaced it with a homemade piece from a torn bicycle tire and double stick tape, bought at AutoZone. It has been four months now, and the lights are still staying off unless ... Read More...

Honda Civic Care and Maintenance

Its totally unacceptable for an engine to die at 48K. If Honda doesn't give at least 50% back to you, I'd never shop Honda again. Show them a picture of your nice new Ford or Toyota and be sure to let everyone know what your Honda did for you. As for me, I have a 117K on my 2001 Civic LX and my only problem thus far has been my suspension- about $850 worth of it around 100 K miles. ... Read More...

Re: Overall Great Car [sandman46]

Written by: cj7375 on Sep 30, 2007 06:35 PM

I agree with that. Overall - very nice car. Mine is 2007 LX, love it. It exceedes my expectation by far. I have had in the past Fort, GM, Chrysler, 1992 Honda Civic, 1997 Nissan Altima (still have it), but this one 2007 LX is the best. No complaints so far, except yesterday when opened the passenger's front door, I noticed on the inner side - a little rusty spot at the ... Read More...

"1 Hondas have higher insurance rates than VW. I own a GTI and the insurance rate is not higher than for a regular Accord. That's probably because you have a lot more safety features in the VW." You really shouldn't make such blanket statements. I just got quotes on the VW GTI 4 door, Mazdaspeed3, Civic SI sedan and Acura TSX. My insurer ( a mainstream company) put ... Read More...

Honda Failures

Written by: butterflyjones on Nov 12, 2006 05:25 PM

When I bought a 1992 Accord LX in `1994 I bought an extended warranty also. I thought I would never need it since Honda made such great automobiles. RIGHT?? WWRRONG!!! The trannys overdrive went out, the right rear window actuator, the stereo speakers, and the power steering all had to be rebuild and or replaced before the 100K mile warr. expired. The power steering ... Read More...

Honda Civic 2006-2007 Issues

Mine too has issues

Written by: psy on Jul 02, 2006 00:29 PM

My car went from near perfect to flawed. My dealer and Honda have been nothing short of wonderful to work with. All the parts are in to replace the power steering pump, drivers door window switch, drivers side rear spring and trunk liner side panels. I have some tire wear on the rear tires. Honda is going to replace the rear tires and do a aligment on the car. I figure ... Read More...

Written by: gpk on May 24, 2006 02:28 AM

I have driven other vehicles out there and what Honda owners consider bugs other mf would consider excellent. I have a friend with an 02 Silverado that needed an new engine last christmas. The vehicle only had ... Read More...
