Is it a good idea to buy a 2007 Honda Civic Sedan that has its original engine? I know there was a recall due to a engine block problem?

If the price is realistic and it test drives OK why not?

It all depends on the two Gods of car buying; price and condition.

If it's made it this long without the engine failing, chances are whatever was wrong with some of those engines wasn't wrong with that particular car's engine or it would have most likely failed long ago.

You don't know the recalls on that car, they were Airbag and Brake Switch related. No ENGINE recalls. Read it yourself
