Recently took a 2000 Accord se to Honda dealer for trade in. The dealership put the car on the hoist for inspection before determining a trade in price. One of the first places that the mechanic looked was at the frame and front suspension on the passenger's side. Almost immediately it was found that over half the width of the front cross beam was wasted away, and was in danger of breaking off at any time. Both the mechanic and salesman agreed, this was a problem they had seen many times on several differnt years of this model. The rotting of the beam was apparently caused by condensate dripping from the air conditioner drain, which was located directly above the beam. I was told that because it had been such a problem, the drains had been moved to a different location on the next generation. The estimate to have it repaired was $1300. 00. Other than that, the car was deemed to be in excellent re-sale condition.
