What owners wrote
The garage where I had the car repaired said they had repaired other 1993 honda cars with the same problem. I would not have bothered to report this, but also happened to the other 1993 h0nda accord that we own. I believe this is a serious safety defect, which could result in serios injuries or death if the engine runs out of oil on an interstate and the engine seizes up. My son was smart enough to push the ctutch pedal in and turn the engine off.
Catastrophic oil leak caused by known failure of balancer shaft seal. Engine replacement will cost $3500- I was going to sell the car two days from now. Last month, another known failure of the igniter left me stranded.
