fellow nairalanders, I write out of experience. I once owned Honda accord 1993 model, very strong and efficient but the challenge was tie rod pull which is common with almost all Honda cars. ever since, I have always had my eyes on Honda CRV 1998-2000 model but my fear is as mentioned above. now I ask car gurus and experienced owners to comment on this as I intend getting one asap

Go ahead bro. Maintenance culture is the key. Happy purchase

tie rod pull what is that ?

you mean pulling to one side ?

tire rod end only needs alignment to make the car straight

what sort of problem where you having on your honda accord

I mean a situation where tire pulls out from its sitting. especially the front tire. sometimes u will find many Honda cars whose front tire pulled out from its sitting on the centre of the road

i dont get what you are saying

but the tie rod end is that one which is set to make your car drive striaght, if not set correct the car would either pull left or right

which means the car requires wheel alignment

Seriousthing,

I have never seen a Honda CRV with front swivel/ball joint pull.

But then, they suffer rear K-leg a lot. You can actually count that C-RV model without K-Leg on our roads.

Most times the arms are always bent as a result of bad roads in Nigeria. Like I said your maintenance culture would determine all this
