Average in the long run
The repairs I've paid beyond the warranty makes me wish I purchased as Honda, as I'd most likely see less of the 'average' quality issues and weird engine/starter/etc. issues. For example - a starter should be covered for 10 years, if it fails at 5 that is poor quality to me. And for a car to become stuck in drive, with no way to turn it off (other than a manual override) - that is either poor design or poor quality. Even though that was covered under the warranty; it is a hassle every time something goes wrong. And the dealer refuses to provide a loaner car, which should be a free service - period. I feel I've spent more on this car with repairs, than would have if I bought Honda that cost 2,500-3,000 more.
