Honda vehicles are widely regarded as reliable and dependable cars, known for their longevity and solid build quality. While not always the most exciting to drive, they are generally considered a safe and practical choice, especially for those prioritizing dependability and low maintenance. Here's a more detailed look at Honda's reputation: Reliability: Honda consistently ranks high in reliability surveys and has a strong reputation for producing vehicles that last a long time with minimal issues. What Car? reports that Honda's latest models and older models (like the 2012-2018 CR-V and 2012-2017 Civic) are highly rated for reliability. The brand experiences a low fault rate, with the main areas of concern being the 12-volt battery and non-engine electrics. Honda typically covers the cost of repairs in a large percentage of cases, and many cars are back on the road quickly. Honda's commitment to quality control in manufacturing contributes to its reliability. Engine Performance: Honda is known for its efficient and reliable engine technology, including their hybrid powertrains. The e:HEV powertrain in the CR-V, for example, is a testament to their focus on optimizing engine performance, fuel economy, and longevity. Considerations: While generally reliable, some specific models or years might have reported issues. Some older Honda models might have issues with the 1.5L engine or head gasket failure. In terms of driver assistance features, some basic trims might lack advanced safety systems like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic emergency braking. Overall: Honda cars generally offer a good balance of reliability, practicality, and fuel efficiency, making them a popular choice for many drivers. While they might not always be the most exciting or feature-rich vehicles on the market, their reputation for dependability and longevity is well-deserved.- Honda Legend 1997

- Hi Folks
Welcome jps71, sorry if no one has said hello. Lots of great advice and help on here if you ever need it Alan- Headlamps
Few days a go (before I saw they have a kit for this) I cleaned my yellowish/dirty headlights using paste from a tube of T Cut scatch remover lightly rubbing with a old bit of toweling it removed all the yellowiing and they now have a nice shine not like new but certainly took some years off. No tools needed.- Headlamps
I have the same problem on my 2005 CRV have tried lots of products and ideas from others, nothing has worked for me. Alan- A Great Honda the CRV 2005
- Headlight washer
Like it, I'll remember that one.- Headlight washer
I decided after checking how to access the washer bottle and seek out the leak from the near side headlight washer to leave well alone, however the dribble from the washer down the bodywork started to leave a white mark and annoy me. The dribble was coming from the spray hole and I tried to clean with a pin to see if it was the problem but to no avail. I have now sorted it!! A little bit of Blu Tack stopped it however I didn't like the sight of it so with a bit of trimming of a rubber grrommet and then pushed into the Blu Tack you can hardly tell!! Bodgit alive and well here!!! - I love Honda
