i have owned one and they are good vechile. but replacing a motor in a 04 at 35K miles. common thats shit. and ford only offers a 36K mile warrenty. so you think they know its going to happen and they just dont want to pay for the repairs.


I've got an '01 Accord with a 3yr/36k warranty, it is fairly standard. Only in the last couple of years have many companies expanded to 5yr/60k or the "amazing" 100k limited powertrain warranties.....

Let's not forget that Honda has had it's fair share of problems. The auto tranny issue comes to mind quite quickly......

The issue here is the infant mortality rate. Yes, Ford has a higher infant mortality rate than Honda, but Ford has improved through the years lately. And once you pass the infant mortality rate, Ford doesn't vary too much on reliabilty from any other manufacturer out there.
