Let me first say that although my last two cars have been Korean made, my prior 3 vehicles were Honda products (a CRX, Integra and Civic). All three of the Honda/Acura cars I had were built in Japan and all basically just required only routine maintenance for the most part. For the record I bought all three of them in their first year of production. Having said that, I am very concerned at the amount of quality control issues with the new Civic. From wacky infotainment systems to body panels being misaligned. defects on the non-leather steering wheel, very loose looking leather on the seats and others. I think I even read of a guy who bought a new Civic and two interior doors had different colored trim on each door. And now I'm reading about a potential recall.
Has Honda quality gone downhill over the years? There does seems to be quite a few problems with these cars. Is this possibly the case of North American built vehicles not being up to Japanese quality?
