What does Consumer Reports know? Anyway, I've never seen a "bad" Honda, especially if it was taken care of. Change the oil at least every 4,000 miles or 10,000 if you use synthetic. Flush the radiator every other year, get the transmission fluid changed every 60 to 70,000 mile if automatic. Drive it intelligently and it will last a long time. I have a friend who had over 160,000 mile on his. He then gave it to his daughter and she drove it another 45,000,
