Yeah I don't understand CR's hate all of a sudden for Honda after loving them for decades. Sure the 2012 Civic is a disappointment but that has more to do with the abnormally high expectations from what has been the best car in the segment for over two decades. Take out the abnormally high expectations and the car is no worse than most cars in the segment and it will probably be the most reliable. To all of a sudden not recommend the Civic is as absurd as claiming Subaru is the best automaker in the world. CR is a joke.
