Description

This was my wife's car for several years and has always performed very well & been perfectly maintained. We have extensive maintenance records we'll be happy to provide upon request.
Right now, the car has exactly one significant issue: its transmission torque converter seal is leaking. For this reason, we recommend that the buyer not drive this car until that issue is repaired (the alternative being to carry around transmission fluid & check the fluid level frequently). Of course, this issue also explains why the "check engine" light remains on (steady, not flashing) at all times.
On the positive side, all of the items that usually start to need replacing after 100,000 miles have all been replaced with all new parts. Here's a list of the most significant replacements or repairs to this car over the past 4 years:
May 2014: Both front lower ball joints replaced.October 2013: Rear brake pads and rotors replaced. Hand brake cables reconditioned/replaced..July 2013: A/C serviced and recharged with coolant. No leaks found.
May 2013: Climate control head replaced (for heating and A/C systems).August 2012: Heater blower motor replaced.May 2012: Front brake pads and rotors replaced.January 2012: Front sway bar links (both sides), left upper ball joint, and right inner tie-rod end, were all replaced.June 2011: Center brake light bulb replaced.February 2011: Both rear brake lines replaced. All four tires replaced.February 2010: 115,000 mile maintenance cycle per manufacturer specs. Hood latch and pivot assembly replaced. All brake pads and rotors replaced.
Finally, a few other minor details that may be of interest:
This car consistently gets excellent mileage, sometimes even better than its EPA rating (especially on the highway).
The "SRS" dashboard light is also on at all times - but there's nothing wrong with the SRS! The problem is in the seat-belt sensor that confirms it is active. This was a known design weakness in the 2000 Accord that Honda attempted to repair for us - under warranty - three times. The fourth time this sensor failed, my wife gave up.I left out "cruise control" (which would usually be a standard feature on this model) because the cruise control device hasn't worked in at least 8 years. Since it's another item that would be cheap enough to fix in parts but very expensive in labor, and because it's not exactly essential, we simply left it alone.The electric motors in the power side view mirrors still work, but the resulting movement of the mirrors is much less smooth than it used to be.
