You are looking at my 1990 Honda CRX SI Hatchback, Red color, that I acquired in the fall of 2007. It had 75K miles when I bought it and now has 172K. It has never been in an accident. The engine runs strong and smooth. The car gets excellent gas mileage around 36-38 mpg average. The car has VIN # JHMED9367LS010434.

This car will be sold as is and I will describe as accurately as possible all known issues or concerns. The winning bidder is responsible for pickup, shipping, or delivery of the car.

This has been a very reliable, fuel efficient, and zippy car to drive around in. It does not have A/C but has a sun roof and plenty of ventilation. A/C was never initially installed but could be installed by a competent mechanic. This car has been used for my work commute car and has mostly highway miles.  I am only selling because I’ve decided to invest in a new car.

There are no engine or car issues other than what is described below.  

Car Maintenance since I’ve owned:

-       Oil changes with synthetic oil and High efficiency oil filter every 6K miles.

-       Engine tune-up (spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor) every 30K miles.

-       Manual transmission oil changed every 40K miles.

-       2 new front CEV front shaft axle shafts at 132K miles.

-       Front left ball joint replaced at 132K miles.

-       Wheel alignment checked and adjusted every 40K miles.

-       New clutch and timing belt replaced around 100K miles.

-       Replace the Fuel and air filter replaced every 30K miles.

-       New alternator / and belt, and battery replaced in the last year.

-       Coolant flush every 30K miles.

-       New exhaust pipe / muffler at 168K miles.

-       New catalytic converter and center pipes at 130K miles.

-       New Brake pads replaced in last year.

-       New Sumitomo tires installed at 120K Miles.

-       New starter at 164K miles.

-       New battery at 163K miles.

-       New alternator and belt at 134K miles.

 

The car does have some flaws:

-       There is surface rust around the wheel wells and on top to the sun roof. I did apply some JB Weld on top of the sun roof and around the wheel wells, and covered with red paint to prevent the rust from spreading any further. You can see the bubbly surface on the sunroof. Any reputable body shop could easily fix these areas.

-       The oil pan drain hole threads are slighting stripped so I have had to apply JB weld around the oil pan bolt to prevent a small leak following each oil change. The JB weld can be easily chipped away for removal of the pan plug and oil change.

-       The driver seat cloth is ripped on the upper left side. I remedied this by applying black duct tape. Of course car seat covers would be better, or a seamstress could repair.

-       The rear windshield washer sprayer does not work.

-       On occasion when shifting into 2nd gear to quickly, there is some slight grinding heard. I had discovered this when I 1st purchased the car. A reputed mechanic told me this would never get any worse, and to this day it hasn’t. If you ease into 2nd gear gently, this will not occur.

-       There is a slight dent in right rear panel (see pic).

-       On hot days when the car is sitting too long, the accelerator (gas pedal) needs to be depressed for 30 seconds, and then the engine can be started. I think this may be a sensor issue? Otherwise, the engine always starts smoothly.

-       There is a slight scratch in the front windshield driver side.  (see pic)

-       There is a small cut / rip in the vinyl on the driver’s door side. (see pic)

-       The Hood opening latch inside the car has to be held in open position so that the front hood can be popped open. I accomplish this by putting a wrench or 12” piece of wood to hold the latch in open position.

-         

 

The CRX SI original owner’s manual also comes with the car. The winning bidder is responsible for pickup or shipping.

Honda to recall 1.1 million U.S. vehicles to re-replace Takata airbags

Tue, Mar 12 2019

Honda said on Tuesday it would recall about 1.1 million Honda and Acura vehicles in the United States to re-replace defective Takata airbags on the driver's side. The company said it was aware of one injury linked to the defect that may have caused the airbag to rupture when it was deployed in a crash. The vehicles involved in the recall were previously repaired using specific Takata desiccated replacement inflators (PSDI-5D) or entire replacement airbag modules containing these inflators. "Those replacement inflators," Honda said in a statement, "are now deemed defective." Free repairs of the recalled cars would begin immediately in the United States with replacement parts made by alternate suppliers, Honda said. Honda became aware of the issue after a Honda Odyssey crash, where the front airbag deployed and injured the driver's arm. An investigation later showed that manufacturing issues at Takata's Mexico facility introduced excessive moisture into the inflator during assembly, leading to the problem. The total number of recalled inflators is now about 21 million in about 12.9 million Honda and Acura vehicles that have been subject to recall for replacing Takata front airbag inflators in the United States, the company said. Automakers in the United States repaired more than 7.2 million defective Takata air bag inflators in 2018, as companies have ramped up efforts to track down parts in need of replacement.

Honda recalls 2.23 million vehicles to replace Takata inflators

Thu, Feb 4 2016

The Basics: Honda and Acura will recall 2.23 million vehicles in the US. The affected models are: 2005-2012 Acura RL 2007-2011 Honda CR-V 2007-2016 Acura RDX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) 2007-2014 Honda Ridgeline 2009-2014 Honda Fit 2009-2014 Acura TL 2010-2014 Honda FCX Clarity 2010-2014 Honda Insight 2010-2013 Acura ZDX 2011-2015 Honda CR-Z 2013-2016 Acura ILX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) The Problem: These vehicles have Takata's PSDI-5 airbag inflator on the driver's side, and this part could rupture if the airbag deploys. Injuries/Deaths: There are no reported ruptures of the PSDI-5 inflator in Honda or Acura vehicles. However, Takata's exploding components have links to at least 10 deaths worldwide because they can spray shrapnel at occupants. The Fix: Honda and Acura dealers will replace the inflators with parts from an alternative supplier. If You Own One: The repairs will begin this summer. Owners will receive a letter notifying them about the recall within 60 days and will get a second message when the parts are available. The company will prioritize older models in high-humidity regions first because these inflators would be most likely to rupture. More Information: Honda and Acura have now recalled 8.51 million vehicles in the US to replace their driver or passenger side inflators. This latest expansion came in the wake of a driver death from an airbag rupture in a Ford Ranger. Ford and Mazda already enlarged their safety campaigns. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also announced Audi, BMW, Daimler Vans, Mercedes-Benz, Saab, and Volkswagen would have recalls for this issue, too. Statement by American Honda Regarding Nationwide Recall of Certain Takata PSDI-5 Driver Front Airbag Inflators Feb 3, 2016 - TORRANCE, Calif. Approximately 2.23 million Takata PSDI-5 driver front airbag inflators will require replacement in Honda and Acura vehicles in the U.S. No PSDI-5 inflator ruptures have been reported in Honda or Acura vehicles Takata inflators will be replaced with parts from an alternative supplier with repairs beginning in the Summer of 2016 Based on a recent Defect Information Report (16E-005) from the airbag inflator supplier, Takata, Honda will conduct a national recall (16V-061) of approximately 2.23 million Honda and Acura vehicles in the United States to replace, free of charge to vehicle owners, the PSDI-5 Takata driver front airbag inflators installed in those vehicles.

Honda Civic, Volvo XC90 named 2016 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year

Mon, Jan 11 2016

It's a great day to be the Honda Civic and Volvo XC90. These cars are the official 2016 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year, with the awards just having been announced at the Detroit Auto Show. The Civic is a great car, and a fantastic entry in the compact class. To us, its win isn't a surprise, though our enthusiast hearts were really rooting for the runner-up Mazda MX-5 Miata. The new Chevy Malibu was also a finalist for this year's award. As for the Truck/Utility award, we wholeheartedly agree with the Volvo XC90 choice. It's a fantastic-looking, premium, tech-forward vehicle, and represents a huge step forward for Volvo here in the United States. But its runners-up, the Nissan Titan XD and Honda Pilot, are also great choices, bringing a lot of stiff competition to some pretty important segments. Here's how the jury voted: Car of the Year Honda Civic – 203 points Chevy Malibu – 181 points Mazda MX-5 Miata – 146 points Truck/Utility of the Year Volvo XC90 – 310 points Honda Pilot – 111 points Nissan Titan XD – 109 points
