It has very little to do with the Canadian assembly plant. The Alliston plant has won several awards, if I recall correctly.
The Civic is just built poorly. Argue that til you are blue in the face with me if you want to, but it is. The materials used are questionably subpar, rattle prone, and excessively wear prone.
The transmission and engine in this car are both made in Japan, so the shitty transmission is Japan's fault, not Canadas.
I know of just as many problems in Ohio's assembly as I do in the coupe assembly. All these people do is assemble the car. They don't pick out the parts or where to scrimp and save money (though take a closer look at your Civic, and you'll definitely see where they did).
This is not meant as an insult, as I certainly agree with you on almost every accord. I've never heard of the first gear popping out issue, but I've heard of problems in second, third (obviously) and 4th-6th. The transmission is just crap. I hate saying that because it shifts so nicely (when it's not grinding) but the car just needs a lot of things fixed out before I'd ever consider buying another one.
Still, I can't help but love it when I look at the Fiji Blue paint freshly washed and waxed on a summer's day. But we all know aesthetics doesn't always mean anything...
