Honda Accord Reliability

Audio system (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993): The CD changer in the trunk, a dealer installed option, may not eject; CD magazines will be exchanged for redesigned units.

Automatic transmission (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993): Cars with high mileage may begin to shift more harshly; this may be corrected by adding a bottle of Lubeguard conditioner to the automatic transmission fluid.

Brakes (1993): The parking brake may not fully release because a rivet on the brake rod is too tight.

Engine noise (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993): A squealing noise from under the hood is likely to be caused by a worn alternator bearing; it may have failed because the belt tension was too great.

Steering noise (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993): If there is a squeak or squeal in the steering, especially when making a slow, tight turn, look for a label on the power steering reservoir that says PSF-V additive was added. If the noise is still present after additive was installed, the right-side end seal on the steering rack will have to be replaced.

Honda Accord Safety Recalls

1990, 1991: Front seatbelt release buttons can break and pieces can fall inside.

1991 wagons: Improperly attached washer in cargo area light may have fallen inside during assembly; if tailgate is open and switch is in its middle position, washer can cause short circuit that causes switch to overheat, resulting in fire.

1991, 1992, 1993 wagons: Rear outboard seatbelts may lock-up at angles other than those required by federal standard; this could increase risk of injury in a sudden stop or accident.

1992: Left seatbelt assemblies on a few cars were installed on the right side; as a result, the belt cannot be pulled out of the retractor, making it unusable.

See the next page to find out about the 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997 Accord, a generation that saw, among other things, continued advancements in styling.

Honda has a Lifetime Warrenty on the seat belts, excluding cosmetic issues.

Per Honda policy, the Accord offered no factory options

What is Honda's reasoning for doing this in the US?

[NutBucket]

Streamline the assembly process to save money.

The SE sedan returned as the top-line 1993 Honda Accord, and there was a new SE coupe. Both included unique alloy wheels, leather upholstery, and premium Bose audio system, but the sedan was the only '93 Accord equipped with a passenger-side airbag.
