I was looking over an 8th-generation Honda Civic in the shop, and was finding quite a few issues with it. There were some fluid leaks, the brakes were almost worn out, and there were broken springs in both the front and rear suspension. But those weren’t the most dangerous problems.

A few years ago, Honda started using the MOST system in some of their vehicles. MOST stands for Media Oriented Systems Transport. It’s a particular design for communication between different components in the car, including the audio unit, gauge cluster, tuner and amplifier units, among others. Unfortunately, this system has had a lot of problems.

Mechanics usually like fixing problems, but we usually don’t like having to fix problems caused by other mechanics doing poor quality work. Collision shops have to do some of the most meticulous repairs, so when they don’t do something right that a mechanic finds later, that’s not a good showing for them.
When you’re choosing what car to buy, whether new or used, besides whether you can afford the price of the car overall, you really need to think about the other costs. Things like insurance or how much gas a certain car uses seem to be the obvious costs that people think about, but there’s another that it seems like a lot don’t: regular maintenance.
