I got your point about the paying attention part is a normal thing for car owners but driving with your heart in your mouth especially when you hit a pot hole because of the ball joint scare is damn stressful.

The Honda civic you talked about are you 100% certain it doesn't have ball joint issues like the accord?

Even when i broke my wheel one time after hitting a nasty pothole at 140kmph, my ball joint is still intact since 2013 when i bought the car Naija used. I have recently clocked 200k miles on the car still rocking the factory fitted ball joint.

As soon as i buy one chinko ball joint, am sure i will start driving with my heart in my mouth!!!

Oxygen sensor,
Belt adjuster noise,
Stabilzer linkage,
Honda civic.....rubbish car.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but even the fuel economy that Corollas boast of, Civic beats the Corolla hands down on that category.

Meanwhile, the CIvic type R is competing with the likes of Lexus at performance level.

Its not Nigerian road it’s the car,most times they don’t use Car more than 10 years in developed worlds so it’s difficult to know it’s durability
Come to think of it,why always HONDA? And that ball joint is only one of the problems,it has several problems not mentioned in this post
Electrical problem,brain box and so on
you sabi lie o, have been using my Honda for over two years now, it has never for once dissapointed, it must give you sign before it pulls out, unless you no get money to take repair the car In time, that's when it bleeps you up anytime

Sure man... It's either Toyota or lexus...

I have owned an EOD since 2013 and have neither changed the ball joint or shocks.

A Toyota would have changed all 4 shock absorber twice a year since then. That is called penny wise pound foolish.

That is for those who are not aware that ATF is not Power steering oil. Honda doesn't forgive ignorance neither does the law.

The ball joint problem is a Nigerian road problem. I have not seen 1 honda car in 4 years with a dislocated ball joint here in USA. This information might help buyers know that it is a bad road issue and not the car itself

Is there any solution to most EOD stereo making Pop/crackle/loud noise before stopping to talk and sometimes, the sound will come up again. Is there any solution. Sometimes I use Bluetooth speaker memory card to listen to radio/music which the sound can't be compare to the car sound system.

Would I be rude if I said i don't care? If yes then here's a more polite answer; everyone has a preference and I'm not ready to argue car talks right now or ever... You like Honda for your reason and I like Toyota and lexus for my reasons based on experience... Enjoy your Honda man!

Bro. Buy your Honda and rock it, my first 2 cars were Camry (1996 and later 2000), the pleasure and performance is nothing compared to my current Honda 2007(DC). Just have an ear to listen to small details (like unusual noise) and you're good to go.

When you have a leak, the seals are bad. The seals would have been better if it were original Power steering oil not ATF in the system.

If you drive on good and smooth roads, this ball joint issue won't disturb you.
Also, once you change the factory fitted ball joint, story don change be that.

Talking from experience.
