Default Reliability of 2003-2005 honda hybrids? Used car shopper here. - 02-07-2009 , 09:41 PM






Hi,

I just had my Echo t-boned, and I noticed a few Honda hybrids in my
area being sold in the ~100k miles and 2003-2004 range.

One I'm specifically looking at is a Civic Hybrid, 2003, with 9x000
miles, for $7888.

Am I setting myself up for a few thousand dollar battery replacement
and maybe a transmission?

Or is this a decent car?

(I'm wondering the same about a 2005 Accord hybrid with 105000 miles.
For just under 10k)

Thanks,

Jon

I've owned a 2005 Accord hybrid and now a 2008 Camry hybrid.

If I was on your budget I would buy a non hybrid rather than a vehicle with
so many miles on it.
