 Advice to buyer:

shop around for other cars. Camry is a good choice.

 Detailed review:

Purchased an '05 Accord EX w/Leather in 10/04 from Performance Honda in Fairfield OH. By 11/04 the windshield began making noises. Tried twice to get this fixed and failed both times. Called Honda Care to complain about the car (not the dealer). With Honda Care involvement, the service manager decided to make it personal and the situation got ugly. Honda walked away from their responsibility and I lost a dealer I had been using for 15 years. Windshield still makes noises and the problem is spreading throughout the interior. The rear window, passenger side molding, driver's door window, etc., etc., all pop, creak and snap. All-in-all a most frustrating and unpleasant experience. I will never buy another Honda car, nor will my wife who is on her third Accord. We will never use this dealer again either.
