My car has driven over 143,000 miles and has needed very little maintenance. I have had it since 2004, and I'm still driving it today! It has been up and down the entire East Coast more than once. It has reliably transported me to work five days of the week for 14 years. I have never been late to work because of car trouble. I've had to fix the A/C system once a few years ago for less than $300. It's had new tires a number of times.

I've enjoyed the Honda Civic that I've purchased. It has been a reliable car. I've never had to worry about it not running properly or being able to perform. It's had enough space that four people sit comfortably in it. The upholstery has remained intact for all of the several years that I've owned the car. I've had very minimal recurring problems with the car, and I've only had one recall item on the car, which was taken care of with ease.
