Japanese automakers Honda and Nissan have announced plans to join forces and form the world’s third-largest automaker by sales as the industry undergoes dramatic changes in its transition away from fossil fuels.

My 2018 Honda Accord has been a nightmare, and I stubbornly refuse to replace it until it’s 10 years old. I half-wonder if the quality has already started to go downhill.
From the factory, the air conditioner dumped all of its condensation onto the passenger-seat floorboards. Since then, I’ve had to get the AC unit replaced twice.
EVERYTHING rattles in that car – the seatbelt mounts, the visors, all kinds of stuff inside the front console (maybe inside the ventilation system?), the front defroster bezel, and the trim around the back window. It drives me absolutely bonkers.
I’d actually been hoping Nissan would get their shit together in regards to their CVT transmissions… because my favorite car over the years was my 2003 Nissan Maxima.
…I guess I should see what Mazda has to offer…
Yikes, sorry to hear about your accord! That’s just crazy.
I stopped caring about cars newer than about 2012 or so, when they all got touch screen info centers that sell the driving data to the insurance companies. Just makes me sick.
My anecdotal experience with Mazdas have been generally really good
I had a 2002 Protege5 for 15 yrs. Besides normal wear items, it was solid. I only sold it because family meant I needed a larger vehicle. I do miss it at times though. Just got a CX-90 for my wife, so here’s hoping we get the same results. I tend to average about 15yrs on a car so far and I’d like to keep that number up.
