  1.  @Drewcardello  . I think it depends on the generation of the Accords. Pre 2008 they were solid.

  2. I had a 2008 Honda Accord. That generation was notorious for maintenance issues and there are recalls and service bulletins for that vehicle for known issues. I take excellent care of my vehicles but even then I had a number of issues with that car from ac compressor going out, oil burning and leaking, oil solenoid going out multiple times, and hard grinding sound during cold starts requiring expensive repairs. There were other minor issues like the passenger ac vent not working properly. I finally got rid of it after many years. Only kept it because it was paid off.

  4. Mazda was towards the top of my list because of those reasons. I settled a new Acura in the end. Very happy so far.

  5.  @genichiroashina6372  . Yep. I think a lot of these people complaining bought an abused and neglected pre-owned vehicle and are being hit with the resulting repairs. Another person is complaining about a laundry list of issues well beyond normal wear and tear issues. Hard to take some of this people seriously.

  6.  @Norm100ful  . Sounds like a change of transmission fluid at 30k is a safe bet in general. I'm surprised the diff fluid needs to be changed so soon. Good to know. Cheers!

  7. HRVs are junk! Where did you get this list?

  8. That sounds strange. Maybe you purchased the vehicle used from someone who didn't take care of it. I was able to find the service schedule for newer acuras and it says that differential fluid should be replaced at 15k miles (not 5k). Its normally recommended that cvt transmission fluid is replaced at 30k miles - this is common knowledge. Otherwise, Acura recommends a change in transmission fluid at 120k miles.

  9. Top 9. Not #1. Don't get too excited.

  10. Sounds like you drove it too hard, blew a gasket and tried to get the dealership to pay for it after your neglect. Nice try! Next time take better care of your vehicle!

  11. Agreed!

  12. Wrong. Its well known that Honda's quality has gone downhill separately from the care or lack of thereof from the owner. Go read the comments and stop spreading misinformation.

  13. Clueless! Just parroting whatever general advice you read online while disregarding technical issues reported by customers and industry experts.
