We have a Honda Element( Hummer Escape Pod) and the Pilot. I have 66,000 and no problems as of yet. All the maintenance is done, so no issues at all.
The only crappy part is the Windshields on the Element, they crack at the A- frame too easily. I am on my third. Luckily for me, their was a class action lawsuit and I got the first two paid for.
No engine problems whatsoever. Get the Accord, you won't regret it Nephy!
