Here is complaint number 4 for our 2003 Honda Accord that we have owned less than 12 months. The fender liners have fallen in. Husband had to pull over and call someone to bring some tools to cut it out. Couldn't drive down the road with the fender up under the wheel. Honda robs you for the part like $75 and then $12 for plastic clips to hold it in. Why would the liner and the clips fall out anyway?? This Honda has been a nightmare. The tranny is slipping, downshifting, lunging when upshifting, and delaying going from reverse to drive. The trunk leaked and was full of water. The trunk won't close all the time and I have to slam it several times before it latches and now the fenders are falling in. I left separate complaints for each of these problems but wanted to reference them here. Good luck if you own one of these 03 Honda's they are a headache! My husband said I am banned from car shopping...I thought "Honda" meant quality that would last. Turns out it means "Junk" you will regret buying. We have an 04 Mitsubishi Endeavor that has given us less problems in the last 7 years that we have owned it than the Honda has in the last 6 months. WOW!
