CarComplaints.com Notes: 1997 is the last model year in the 5th generation of Accord. Which means it's also the last model year before problems like widespread transmission failure, subframe rust and peeling paint took over.
Does the 1997 have problems? Sure it does. Any car this old will. Some owners say their engine started to cut out around 147,000 miles. That's still not bad, and getting to 200,000+ miles isn't out of the question.
Does anyone believe a newer Accord will reach 200,000 miles?

I took my Accord to the Honda dealership because it would stall while driving. The first time I took the car, they kept it a day and said they couldn't find a problem. The next time it stalled, I took it back and they said it was the idle air control valve. I had the valve replaced but the car still stalled on me twice in day.
