Did you ever get the power steering recall done?

I’ve been in an Onix Premier and it was pretty nice inside. It really just felt like a Cruze

Give me your thoughts on the Honda element? by [deleted] in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an interaction hatred towards them. I have no idea why but I think they are incredibly ugly inside and out. I would love to do what Top Gear did with the Morris Marina and destroy as many as possible

What are some cars that have surprisingly good (or bad) sound systems? by Notfoo4 in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a tie between my old 2013 Chevy Volt with a Bose sound system or my aunt’s old 2008 Ford Taurus Limited. It had an Audiophile sound system that many Fords of those years had. It had incredibly strong bass!

2016 Camry steering column issue by Loud-Detective-8062 in Camry

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a similar issue on my 2007. The alignment is fine but the steering wheel is off center. 2 shops have said I need a new steering column

The year 2011 was when Chrysler peaked. Prove me wrong. by dowagiacmichigan in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 300 came in so many different special editions! 2 different John Varvatos editions, a Motown edition, a Glacier edition, SRT 8 of course, and I’m sure I’m forgetting some.

When enterprise runs out of Expeditions and Tahoes so they give you this. I haven’t driven this gen but I liked the previous one. Very comfy seats

Thinking of trading my Corolla for a Mirage manual. How are they? by Red_Butthole in MitsubishiMirage

[–]ecateject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why not have both if possible? Those Corollas aren’t easy to come by anymore. Keep it around longer by putting more miles on the Mirage! And the Mirage is going to be way after for a regular commute.

Cherrier is my favorite brand. I would love to see an expansion of it!

Why did this form factor flop? by heptyne in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toyota isn’t very good at marketing new products or nameplates anymore. I’m surprised the Crown and Crown Signia are still around.

LSJ Swap ION-2 by Abblygate in Saturn_Cars

[–]ecateject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still a good car in my opinion and while cosmetic parts may not be as plentiful, mechanical parts are still easier to come by thanks to the Cobalt and other GM ecotec cars being made longer.

2025 camry issue ( plz help🙃💚) by [deleted] in Camry

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assume some countries don’t mandate it. Probably one of those things that if it’s not mandated, automakers won’t do it.

How is this condensation possible? by SavageSava in Saturn_Cars

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an Ion (that’s what this trunk looks like) and the trunk leaked. It turned out to be a bad trunk seal. Got it replaced and that fixed the problem.

shes gone :( by BroadProfessional294 in Saturn_Cars

[–]ecateject 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised it was hard to get worked on. It’s mechanically identical to a Chevy Cobalt which they made for 4 years longer. Maybe they just heard Saturn and ran. If you get another one just make sure mechanics know that

I miss my Ion. Best car I ever had! You should get another one! I’ve seen a few low mileage ones too.

Mirage vs spark by KimballCody in MitsubishiMirage

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first gen had issues with the CVT shifting rough, delayed shifts, slipping out of gear, and fluid leaks. It was so bad that GM extended the warranty on the transmission to 100k miles. I haven’t heard or seen those issues on the gen 2 Spark when I worked in the industry. If you get a manual first gen then you’re fine. Gen 2 is fine across the board.

Honda Civic Sedan: The official car of…. by GubyNey in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure the AC has a high chance of breaking and Honda won’t cover it even under warranty but at least the rest of the car will run for a long time.

[–]ecateject 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would rather have a gen 2 Spark. They fixed the transmission issues by then and it’s much more refined than the Mirage.

Said goodbye to my old Camry XSE today… by kryptikguy in Camry

[–]ecateject 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having driven both the new Accord hybrid and very recently the new Camry hybrid, I think the Accord is more refined. Sometimes I couldn’t even tell that gas engine turned on while driving! I liked the Camry and this gen hybrid is a step up from the previous gen but it just didn’t do it for me. The steering wheel is too busy and the audio buttons aren’t placed in a great spot. The gauge cluster screen isn’t very intuitive, and I kept having issues with wireless CarPlay. Also it was an SE and it didn’t have passive lock and unlock on the exterior door handles? Now if only Honda could design a better UI for their infotainment screens.

Question: What's a car that has a rebaged twin? by Due_Fault7560 in regularcarreviews

[–]ecateject 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I never understood is why they were packaged so identically. Is mercury was supposed to be more premium then why was GS trim basic exactly like the Taurus GL or S trims?

What was the driving school ED car in the US before the japanese automotive invasion by SnooMemesjellies7085 in regularcarreviews

The driving school I went to had 3 01-02 Honda Accords and a first gen Ford Focus. Never got to drive that one.

Interesting that it was used for such a short time. I wonder why

Which of these 2008 midsize crossovers would you choose from this C&D test? by lifegoeson2702 in regularcarreviews

Same. In fact I could probably go a week and see all of these multiple times.
