In their own words

Not had any major issues with my civic, though I have had many minor issues. Firstly the thermostat went at 70000 miles causing the car to read cold when been driving for 30 minutes. The civic really struggles going over road bumps, especially the pyramid shaped bumps, the bottom hits the top of the bumps, car is standard too. Driving the car in the wind is stressful, even the slightest breeze can make you think you're driving in a hurricane. Had to replace both rear calipers too at 75000 miles due to the caliper sticking. Had to replace a lot of suspension parts too for example top mounts and drop links. I hear other drivers complaining of the rear spoiler causing reversing issues but my only issue is the lower window steaming up as there is no rear demister there.
